The STE1200s do. The Sanyo variant may be a little lighter since it doesn't have the extra layer of wood on the baffle around the woofer.

The Electronica 100 AC-060 (often just called Electronica AC-060) is another rebranded copy of the Sanyo SXM-8000 design.
It’s part of a broader OEM series where Sanyo manufactured speakers for various European and Eastern European brands in the 1970s and 80s, including Romania’s Electronica (via Unitra collaborations or direct licensing).
The model dates from around 1978–1982 and is essentially identical to the original: a 3-way bass reflex speaker with a 300 mm woofer, 67 mm titanium midrange, and 30 mm titanium tweeter, with a frequency response of 35–35,000 Hz, 8 Ohms, and 100 W RMS.
Can the crossover from Electronica AC-060 be used for your Sanyo/Fisher?
Yes, absolutely – it can be used directly as a replacement.
Since it’s a copy with the same drivers and specifications, the crossover has the same configuration:
3-way setup with crossover frequencies at approximately 500 Hz (woofer to midrange) and 5 kHz (midrange to tweeter).
Components: A passive network with capacitors (typically electrolytic, which often need replacement in vintage models), inductors, and resistors. Plus adjustable level controls for midrange (+1 dB to -∞) and tweeter (+3 dB to -∞), integrated into the filter.
Compatibility: Impedance, power, and frequency distribution match exactly, so it will fit without modifications. Differences are only cosmetic (e.g., front panel design or labels), not electrical.
Users on hi-fi forums have reported successful swaps between Sanyo SXM-8000, Fisher STE-1200, and Electronica AC-060 without issues.
If your current crossover is damaged (e.g., worn capacitors, common after 40+ years), this is a plug-and-play solution.
Just check for corrosion or loose connections during installation.
Build/repair crossover : If you can’t find one, you can rebuild your own with modern components (e.g., film capacitors for better sound).
A simple 3-way crossover kit from Parts Express or Madisound will match the specifications.
Forum help: Ask Russian Dzen.ru (there’s an article on the evolution from Sanyo SXM-8000 to Electronica AC-060 with images).
These speakers are robust gems – with a fresh crossover, they’ll sound fantastic again!
