Along with the 2 huge monoblocks that I acquired I also got this amp , does anyone recognise its build/type ?
Could it be of a Linsley hood design? ( the name was mentioned when I collected the amps )

To get some idea it might be useful to dismantle one channel at least and show detailled pics of the PCB (component and soldering sides) and the power devices.
Anyway, I think the builder didn't have his best day when deciding to put the heatsinks within an almost airtight enclosure 🙄.
Best regards!

It definitly needs some serious clean-up. As Kay suggests some shots of the actual amplifier boards would make it more likely to find whatyou have.
Parts for now.

Just noticed (speaker?) fuses in series at the back panel, and floating in the breeze inductors in series with speaker terminals, an afterthought if I ever saw one.
Boards look very 70's with some TO5 transistors visible.
We deserve to have a better look at those boards as suggested above but in any case punch/drill a palm surface equivalent of 10/12 mm holes above and under those poor heatsinks.

PCBs are translucent (translucent), which facilitates reverse engineering.
It is advisable to take a picture from the back of the radiators with a view of the powerful transistors. Or read their names with a small mirror and flashlight.
We can definitely say that this is the stereo amplifier. It has a volume control and RCA&Philips(DIN) inputs.
