Dating code on old Dual Rectifier

[fontanadk]

I just bought an old Dual Rectifier, and it sounds awesome.
On the board it says 6.16.93 hand written with a magic marker (or what its called in english).
The head is with small logo and serial no. R 0002263X, does that sound like a 1993?
I always wanted a Rectifier, so when I saw this one up for sale, I just had to buy it.

Yes, this is a 1993 Recto. Most likely a Revision F circuit board.

Thank Alot, where do I see the revision f? I have looked inside the Amp but could not find anything.

The revision code should be printed on the main board inside the chassis. Locate the 4 big blue capacitors, and look directly behind them (the small area between the blue caps and the powertube sockets).

It should say "RF 1F" if the amp is a Revision F. Whatever letter follows the "1" is the Revision...
