Anything you consider a nominal listening level is ALWAYS too loud for a wife. Even with Head-phones on!
I'm turning GREEN! That's about as 1958 MONO TOTL as you can get! Is the 100 amp a 100 or a 100az? Outwardly there should be a switch or pot for speaker damping on the AZ.
Beautiful little collection. I gasped out loud when I saw that first picture of the X-202. Stunning!Just added this gem to my small Fisher collection here in Switzerland.
An early version x-202, with EFB, restored and modified by Dave Gillespie.
It even came with the original owner's manual, which I will scan for the AK database.
Dave did a fantastic job, and his patience and support for a client with no background in electronics was much appreciated.

I also have the later version Fisher x-202, with EFB, again restored and modified by Dave Gillespie.
It sounds absolutely superb with my EV Interface D's and Ayon Audio S-5 tube network player, even in my small room at home.

Last but not least is my Fisher 1800, which is getting less playing time these days because of the x-202, but is forever a favorite of mine.
