Guys, I just purchased this fabulous early 1960s RCA PS-16 console, and will be making a trip to Milwaukee within the next 10 days to get it. It is undoubtedly one of the most potent consoles RCA Victor ever made. The amplifier has 11 tubes, and there is also a two tube preamp above the amp. This is a three channel stereo with a dedicated center channel for bass, and a pair of "rocket" speakers for mid's and treble, which also provide terrific stereo separation. The amplifier and pre-amp have a 5-AS4-A rectifier, six 6BQ5 outputs in push-pull, and a total of six 6CG7 preamp tubes.
I've been wanting this set for a long time, and this one is in pristine condition. It was owned by a 93 year old woman who obviously really took great care of her console. The cabinet is solid walnut, with no photo-finish anywhere. Even the inside of the record playing compartment is walnut veneer.
The picture of the amp is one I borrowed from ARF. My set will have a back cover on it.
