I had one of these. It was the most powerful amp I'd ever had - I was 10 at the time I think. I used it with the great big speaker that I'd pulled from an old floorstanding TV. It was a Pye something and I put the whole lot in the cardboard box from a 'continental quilt'. Duvets were a later name. It blew up in the end of course like most other Sinclair stuff. I still have a Project 60 set with tuner and active fiilter which worked last time I tried it. Did have a pair of Q16s but they blew up as well.
