Unknown philco amp
#1

Hello all,
this item is not really a radio, so please excuse me if this is the totally wrong place where to posto this question. But this was the only philco forum I found and this indeed is made by philco...
I firend and I found this big amp + turntable in his grandfathers' house. It bears no model number on the outside except for a big PHILCO logo:

Does anyone know what model this can be and where to find a schematic? An uncle of my friend more or less remembers building this thing from a kit in the '60.
The only markings are in the PCB found disassembling the unit:

27-7174
PHILCO

As you can see the PCB was modified. In fact a tube was removed:

There are four tubes but we where only able to identify 3:
2x EL84
12AX7

The fourth bears no markings and has an octal socket with only 5 pins attached (it is the large valve near the power transformer). This should be some kind of rectifier.
Does anyone have more info?
Thanks
Rodolfo
