It is quite possible that this is just a passive speaker, needing an amp, and not a power supply. Please post pictures of connections panel, and label.

Two speakers are marked ' X' and the inscriptions on it are "257 00602
TP 628"

Haha this might be from wwII... Just wanted to know what this thing sounds.. Between should I connect the disconnected wires from the other two speakers(marked X)?.... Any suggestions on not very expensive amp wanted to give it go

Get a $15 multimeter (auto part stores, Walmart, etc), and check what is the impedance of disconnected speakers. Cut the wires between other speakers as well, and check their impedance as well. I doubt all were connected in parallel.

As for how it will sound - who knows... The enclosure does not seem to be acoustically isolated, so I would say these were PA-style speakers, not "Hi-Fi". As for amp - places like PartsExpress and Amazon sell a lot of under-$50 amps for one to play with.
