Daven - RARE!
3 tube resistance coupled amplifier
Laboratory prototype or Kit?
From the way it's constructed, I assume that. I've never seen
another one like it. Typically these are housed in a much smaller
Bakelite case and a homemade version would not likely include the
engraved nameplate.
From my collection of many years, this piece was acquired so many
years ago I don't recall where I found it.
Offered as found, with 3 original "Daven" tubes. I never tried to operate it, 2 of the 3 tubes
test good as '201A's, the 3rd is shorted.
SOLD

Radiola 18
Lamp Hood
Here's what many of you have been seeking, my hood is the
correct size and looks more authentic. Unlike the soft metal one
that was previously supplied by another source available that
mounted poorly by nails that you had to bend (often damaging the
hood) and then hung loose unless glued in place, mine is made of
a special rigid compound with a real bronze metal finish and
mounted with two tiny screws.

and knobs are also original, the bottom label is however my
reproduction as the original was badly torn and partially missing.
