Fisher 400-CX preamp

My latest Craigslist find involves a very pretty and clean Fisher 400-CX preamp. It was pulled from a cabinet and has no case. I have been listening to CDs with it all afternoon with a McIntosh MC225 amp. This is a wonderful preamp with mids to die for!

I will post some pictures this evening.

Well, my friend, you struck gold.

That's one of the most desirable tube preamps ever made, second only to the 400-CXII in the Fisher line.

Congrats! And I'm looking forward to the pics!:yes:

Oh, and you have a pm.
 
I took several this morning and will post them tonight.

I also got a Fisher R200B tube tuner with this purchase. I have yet to play with it.

I am not aware of this model being short wave. It is a FM stereo tuner.

I will post pics tonight.

then its either a fm200b or r200. the r-200-b is a hybrid am/fm/sw tuner.

Looks very clean. I believe the pre has a brass face. So hard to find one clean without corrosion. You have a keeper. Good luck.
 
The Fisher preamps are really not all the commonly found up for sale, which I bet is because owners hang onto them. Very nice preamps I've freshened up a few of them.
