Not to be confused with the CA-880
I have wanted the 880 or 800 for the better part of 8 years, and now that i got one i plan on fully rebuilding it.
To start the unit i have has been worked on before. one of the STK-0080's have been replaced, some caps in the pre amp board have been shorted and the main board is even BROKE!
my current plans are to fully recap it, fix the preamp bodges, replace the burnt out lights, attempt to fix the broke board, replace a half burnt headphone dropping resistor and the best part...Replacing both the STK-0080's with all discrete parts designed by user rcs16
If anyone wants to follow along the manual is here. https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/fisher/ca-800.shtml
Pics Below!
Replaced STK Pack (Right one)
Broke Main PCB
Burnt headphone dropping resistor.
Shorted caps in pre amp.
Let the fun begin!
