The cabinet is an EH Scott Wellington as per Jim Clark's "EH Scott Radio Collectors Guide".  Jim Clark was actually at the auction when I purchased the two Philharmonics and said it is an original Scott cabinet. I believe the Scott cabinets that were offered at the time were manufactured by a company called Rockford.  They were in the Chicago area where EH Scott was located. So, the cabinet is an original Scott but I'm not sure it is original to this radio.  The tuner chassis hangs out the back of the cabinet by about 1/2 inch.  The amplifier/power supply chassis needs to be turned 180 degrees from Scott's recommended installation because the plug connections would otherwise butt up against the speaker, causing the chassis to hang over the edge as well.  As often happened with these custom radios, the radio was purchased without cabinet and then installed in a non Scott cabinet.  Potentially, this Philharmonic was installed in the Scott Wellington cabinet at a later date.  There is just no way of really knowing.  In addition, over the years, many Scott tuner chassis were mated with a different amplifier/power supply.  This power supply has what appears to be a serial number written on the inside of the chassis that is different than the Tuner serial number.  Kent on the EH Scott forum says this is not unusual.  All in all, I feel fortunate to own it and am very pleased with the way it performs.
