The wires to the speaker have been cut and alligator clips added.
I can only guess this was done so the amp could be hooked up to an external speaker, possibly they were using the amp to power a phonograph at some point, or they just thought it would sound better with another speaker?
One reason for thinking this was a kludge is that there is a separate plug on the amp, I see now though there is an outlet on the back of the TV chassis where the amp would plug in.
BTW, the chassis on the set and amp are very shiny and new looking, it was probably a lifelong resident of the Mojave Desert (Victorville CA).
