My '63 CTC-15 clone is exactly the same way. The audio board is quite bare, only 1 tube. It has the other 2 sockets but no supporting components. It is fed into the preamp and then to the audio amp. I guess these single ended 6BQ5 amps are pretty sought after. They are supposedly class "A" but don't quote me on that.
