Vintage Tube Amp

Up for sale is a rare RCA MI-26155 Distribution Amplifier, a foundational piece of mid-century broadcast technology. Manufactured by the Radio Corporation of America in Camden, N. These units were the gold standard for signal distribution in high-end television and radio studios during the late 1940s and 1950s. Provenance & History: This unit is believed to have originated from a CBS television station. While no formal paperwork is included, the industrial gray finish and “DA31″ inventory tagging are consistent with the equipment standards used by major networks during the Golden Age of Television. Tube Complement: Designed for (5) 6AC7 and (5) 6AG7 vacuum tubes (tubes not included). Chassis: Heavy-duty rack-mount steel construction. Condition: External: Original industrial paint shows honest wear, scratches, and patina consistent with age and professional use. The original RCA “Meatball” logo and nomenclature plate are remarkably well-preserved and legible. Internal: The underside wiring appears largely original and intact (see photos). This is an excellent candidate for a “hollow-state” restoration or a centerpiece for a vintage broadcast display. Dimensions: Approximately 19″ W x 12″ D x 8.5 H. It is untested and has not been powered on to protect the vintage transformers and components. Please review the high-resolution photos carefully, as they are the primary description of the item’s physical condition. It will be professionally packed and double-boxed to ensure it arrives safely.
