    The Fisher philharmonic consoles

    I've got a near mint philharmonic console I'm afraid in in need of parting with. She works great, all components are functional. She's got her original the Fisher tubes still in her. Garrard AT60 turntable that works flawlessly. Speakers sound as they should. Really aren't many flaws in this...

    Question About A Knob Labeled "Auto Off"

    A friend asked me to look at a console stereo system with The Fisher 59-A and 59-T components. It is very cool and in excellent condition but was dead when I got there. The short version of the story is that I checked it out and there was power in, but no lights and no activity of any sort. I...

    My uncle has an old Fisher TFM-300 tuner lying around and I was wondering if these early (mostly) solid-state units were worth fixing up. It's got the 6AL5 and 6CW4 "Golden Synchrode" front end.

    I have an opportunity to buy a nice looking Regency, but before I do, I'd like to get some opinions. From what I have read, this unit has a 400-CX-2 preamp, a R-200 tuner, and a TA-900 solid state power amp. It also has the Miracord 10 TT and a Ampex 1250 R2R. It looks like the tuner and the...
