I see ONLY ONE transformer-couple discrete amp in this typical 1980's hot chassis, and I DO NOT think it could produce 5W cont. The amp is near the rear of the chassis...only ONE channel. You can see it on the right side of the tuner. Those 2 sinks on the outs are NOT big enough for that sort of power. More like 2.5 W cont. And that would be consistent with many 80's model non stereo sets.

This actually looks to be older than 1986 chassis wise, more like 1982 or 83. By 86--stereo was becoming pretty popular on larger sets.
