The "black box" is original to the radio and serves as the set's power supply. (That shelf is there for a reason.) It was designed for use on 32V DC. If it is working on 115-125V AC, then the power supply has been modified. If it had been untouched, applying 115-125V AC would destroy it.

Nice radio, take good care of that grille cloth.
