I wish Fisher made a receiver combining the 500C & 500B.

Sure, all it takes is money (too much of it).

True.

 

[the_nines]

Yep. But well worth it. Plus they can only go up in value.

Got another 8B the other day. It came from some Physics lab, hence the sticker on the front. Sweet music!

That's beautiful.

That's beautiful.

Thank you very much Sir!

How does one get in touch with Jim McShane? I recently acquired a 500C with the wood case from the original owner. I hope to do a re-hab some time soon.
(I hope this isn't considered a thread hijack. If it is, a thousand apologies)

So what accounts for the difference in sound between the 500B and C?

Mainly circuit design, Transformers, and a few technical items. Today's post's are brought to you by the LETTERS "B" and "C". (apologies to Sesame Street!)

China cave, thanks for the link. I guess I should start a new thread.

Hi,

I am looking for the factory alignment instructions for the Fisher 500B.
Thanks
Jerry

The tuner alignment instructions are in the Service manual http://www.fisherconsoles.com/service owner manual list.html
scroll down to the last group and locate the 500B.
