** Looks just like a Quad AM 3 - partner to the FM3.

If it's a fake then I've got 2 of them . It is in fact the European
version of the AM3 Tuner - having LW,MW & SW. The Overseas version has MW,
SW1 & SW2. They only made 2000 of them in total from 1969 to 1973. The AM3
Tuner is basically the AM2 Valve Tuner in the same livery as the 33 & FM3
styled equipment.

Hi the

My German is very limited but follow this link and it should answer your
question about this classic piece.

Actually it isn't an FM tuner at all, it is a Quad AM-3 LW/MW/SW tuner, it
is mislabeled in the description as a Quad AM-2 which is a different
beast.

And isn't the AM-3 also self powered, whereas the AM-2 wasn't self powered.

Hi John,

Yes the AM3 is self powered - that is the only electrical difference between
it and the AM2 (got a couple of those too). And to be absolutely pedantic,
the AM3 was fitted with the flat 2 pin mains connector which plugs into the
back of the 33 Control Unit mains outlets. If you had a 33/303/FM3
combination and wanted to add the AM3 to the line up, the 2 mains outlets on
the 33 would have been used for the the 303 and FM3 leaving nowhere to
switch the AM3 from. But Quad catered for that by providing another 2
outlets on the back of the AM3. So to get everything switched on via the 33
Control Unit, you used its mains outlets for the 303 and AM3 and plugged the
FM3 into one of the AM3 outlets. It sounds a bit messy but it works
elegantly in practice. I've got a couple of sets of the 33/303/FM3 & AM3
combination set up that way and they work extremely well.
