    The similar Siemens 6SELA2805 (former Klangfilm) uses 715 Volt.
    Both about 120 Watt - from the Fifties/ last century!

    Is this a monaural amp, like this 5120?

    Yes these are monaural amps,
    they are heavy.
    I presume they are based on a genuin Philips design introduced with the The EL34 in 1949 by Philips the parent company of Mullard.

    Service manual for EL6431 (with enclosure) with 120 Watts and Ua = 660 – 720 Volts:

    One power transformer, one audio transformer, one audio input... that's normally how it works

    have to be careful with the bias at those high-ish voltages... will often see blue halos (normal when run this way).
