    Attention: this model might not exist
    1) The booklet "Siera memento of tubes and models 1932-1946" mentions a type S95U along with S95A with the same general properties and tubes but doesn't specify its power supply.
    2) A list of Siera-Philips equivalencies, made by Philips in 1942, mentiones the Philips 314X as equivalent for S95A and S95U which would suggest that S95U, if it exists, would be an S95A with supplementary vibrator convertor. The by Philips claimed equivalence of S95A and S95U to 314X is flawed since the number of tubes and the schematic is different. 
    3) A type S95U or S95AU has not been found up to now.
