I have the opportunity to obtain this beautiful fisher console.
Serial Number 12666
Fisher Multiplex FM/AM Transistor Receiver
Dual 1015 turntable

Any ideas which fisher receiver this is?
Does it have vaccuum tubes?

Thanks,
BFaith

The console itself isn't a Fisher product. Looks like its a home made unit with a solid state receiver. They didn't even get the cutout for the receiver square.

Hmm...any idea how to find the model of the turntable? The only number on it is the serial # 12666 followed by either a B or an E.
The turntable is a dual 1015 changer (with only the changer spindle :( )

Interestingly there are RCA reverb out and reverb in on the back (jumpered together) ...never seen that before...

Looks like a 500T or 700T. 20-ish watts per channel. The reverb in/out jacks are hold overs from the tube era. All the older Fisher receivers had them for use with the K-10 SpaceXpander reverb units. That center channel out is a similar hold over.
 
Yup, it's a 700t. Thanks!
Any comments about the quality of sound or of the receiver in general?
I'll probably end up getting it, but i can't listen to it first, so just curious if the series is total crap, or what...
I've never heard a fisher this old...though at one point i had a monster 50 pound quad receiver by fisher and wasn't too impressed with it...
 
It's in the 1st generation of FISHER Solid State from 1967. It looks remarkably identical to my 550-T down to the color of the faux veneer on the front and the AM BAND!

The 700T is FM only. This is a FM-AM unit so it's most likely a 550-T. 40-45WPC

VERY GOOD SOUNDING, and a close match up (when freshened up and aligned) to the 800-C. I've got both. The "rocker switches" have their problems with staying clean. I'd prefer slide switches.........
