Yeah I’m kind of curious myself, some big voltage on those sweep tubes. Apparently they sound good and have some sizeable power, so should be a good winter project when I get around to them.
What was the the last audio-related item you purchased?

Wow wow, pretty units, enjoy
Wow!!! Are you going to service them? Those look fantastic we need to see more of this set!!! Congratulations on such a cool set!!
Picked them up today and was super happy; cosmetically perfect, unmolested, full tube compliments and a few spares too. I couldn’t see the faces of these in the pics so expected them to be beat to snot.
Fisher 400, 2 x early Bogen DB130 amps. Big ass complete stand up radio in my car as well, trying to donate it to SPARC and other such groups.
Needed another project (did I really lol?) so these three will get refreshed this winter, Fisher first. It’s missing a knob brite that I must have dropped on the way to the car, but that’s it, thing is flawless.
Been a while since I’ve had a scroe; haven’t really been looking, but this one found me. Winning bid on these four units was a whopping $86 CAD; make sure to post proper pictures of your auction ads folks.

Not a purchase, but a gift from @newenglandj (Thanks Justin!). A Webcor 14X325-1 power amp. Never heard a 12AB5 output tube before. Another Winter project.
I need more amps like a dog needs fleas, but these are some of Fishers best IMO. I do love the old Fishers and I have a handful in my storage locker.
I am lining up the projects for when I retire from work. I want plenty to keep me busy, as I am thinking of retirement in a year, if I stay healthy that long.
Really cool, I’m a big fisher fan too. I’ve slowed up on buying tube amps for now, and started the process of purchasing components to restore what I have that needs restoration. I’ve got about 40-50 tube amps in my living room, most work, some restored and some needing some love.
Hope you do get to restore those soon, if you do I sure hope you post about them in the tube forums.
Ha you sound like me. Gonna pull the retirement plug very soon, and have a small hoard of units that I think are interesting down in storage. The Bogen pair I picked up will head down there tomorrow and wait their turn lol.
Wife still working for a while, so I figure a pile of electronics to sort out will keep me busy.

Lots of gear evaluations going on. Understand your comment.
Welcome to ak. Guess we will see you around for a while as you put your unit in service.

Yea, I had to slow up as I ran out of shelf space.
I have a number of other items that will be here in a few days, and I thought this was nice. I wouldn't have snagged it except how clean it is. I would love to power it up but all those old caps, and yet the part of the beauty of this is all those original caps I hate to replace them. That was some real craftsmanship those English men did.
I saw a singe on eBay was that you who landed it?
Yeah.
Fantastic

Heres my latest find from FB marketplace from a well known seller of audio gear here locally.
Bryston 4wsb 4-way speaker selector.
They seem to be rare and that's just what I like in my collecting of audio gear.Oh the price was in the low 2 digets.
