Zip ties were indeed available in the 80s. I used them in the Navy in the late 70s and early 80s.

Isn’t it possible that it’s been freshened up? 

Just curious,

How many companies used zip ties in their amps in the Eighties?

Klimo built great High Fi gear back in the 1980's .  Not sure if he's still in business.

Very limited production of components. I remember an FM tuner he offered. I think it was called the Erturnax or something like that. Very expensive for the time.  Those monoblocks you have look great.  Nice clean design with all the point to point wiring.  👍

I would strongly suggest upgrading the parts ,the wiring is-old and brittle , the resistors are cheap cement type and capacitors low quality and for sure dried out 

Having owned a  Audiostore  for a decade and rebuilding these things are very apparent especially knowing it’s age ,for sure it will get worse ,it may work but detail is far from optimum ,capacitors back then dried out after 15 years and detail just fades and sound far better after being refreshed and upgraded 

just sound advise.

@jcbwgatos -- Every pair I've ever seen has a Gothic Script letter "K" label on the front left of the amp.  Is that missing from yours, I didn't see it in the picture.  If yours does not have it, I would suggest looking online to see if replacements are available.  I know in the past that has impacted the price quite a bit if it is missing.  Just my unsolicited 2 cents worth!

You are CORRECT!!! thank you very much. I appreciate everyone's help. I do have the pair & I intend to list them soon since I no longer have the space 

Agree with @muljo. A pair currently listed:

Dr Klimo Kent Vintage Tube Power Amplifiers

Condition:

UsedUsed

Price:

US $2,699.00

Only pair I've seen in the U.S. for sale.  Several are listed in Italy and Germany.  I've read great reviews on the amps and they are quite a collectors item right now, especially the Monoblocks.

Looks like a project I did at DeVry in the late 60s. :)

That is Klimo monoblock amp. They were made in Germany in the 80’s and i believe early 90’s.

Great stuff

Do you have the other one ?

Chers

Very likely not a name brand but a home built. The giveaway is the wooden blocks glued to the sides and front -- they are used to hold the bottom cover screws.

Signal tubes are ECC83S

Here are pictures of the bottom

I agree with glennewdick- I believe the manufacturer had a printed tag on the back of the chassis that is long gone. I thought the tags had to be riveted...but not this one. 

thank you all for your help

Looks like RadioShack kit.

I don't think it's a Quicksilver either.   Most of their amps that are that form factor  have power input , switch , and fuse on one end and speaker terminals on the other 

looks home made to me,  no CSA testing or certification for example. Anything sold would require testing, certification labeling. This leads me to think its not a commercial unit but a custom made unit. 

Can you post an image of the interior?

Maybe early Quicksilver, though I don't believe that they have been around for 30+ years.

What are the small signal tubes?

DeKay

I don't believe it is- I remember reading a review on TAS or Stereophile (early 90's)- 

Dynaco Dynakit?
