Vintage Tube Amp

Untested – no power-on or signal testing performed. Vintage Stromberg-Carlson AR-37 tube amplifier paired with a Fisher preamp/equalizer. Both units are from the late-1940s to early-1950s era and were part of an early hi-fi/record-reproduction setup. The AR-37 is known for its 10-watt output, five-tube design, and built-in equalization network intended for pre-RIAA record curves. The Fisher preamp adds tone shaping and gain control typical of early Fisher engineering. Both units are untested. No power-on or functional checks were performed. They are offered AS-IS for parts, restoration, or display. Five-tube amplifier (6SN7GT, 6SN7GT, 6F6, 6F6, 5Y3GT). Rated around 10 watts output. Bass boost, treble attenuation, and compensation controls. Metal chassis design typical of late-40s Stromberg-Carlson engineering. Cosmetics show age-appropriate wear. No guarantee of completeness or functionality. No cables or accessories included. AI has added the following description after all the photos were loaded. ? Identification of Your Components. A Stromberg-Carlson chassis with a 50-60 cycle, 105-125V plate. A large power transformer and multiple octal tubes. A front panel with Fidelity / Treble / Bass / Volume controls. Serial numbers consistent with late 1940s-early 1950s SC sound equipment. This is not an AR-37. It appears to be a higher-power Stromberg-Carlson PA/Hi-Fi amp, likely in the 20-30 watt class, closer to models like the AMP-1, AMP-2, or AMP-24 family. These sell higher than AR-37 units because they have more output and better transformers. Early Fisher bird logo. Markings for AES, NARTB, LP, 800, etc. This is an early Fisher phono preamp/EQ, late 1940s-early 1950s. These are collectible because they predate the Fisher hi-fi receivers of the 1950s-60s. The wooden case with a handle and combined front panel is a period custom build. These were often used in. Collectors like these because they show real-world use and originality.

Unit powers on condition is unknown – I do not have the equipment or knowledge to fully test it safely. Cosmetically it shows normal wear from age and use including scratches, marks, dust, and handwritten markings around knobs. Interior appears largely complete from what I can see in the chassis. Please review all photos carefully for condition and completeness. Features dual meters, large tuning knobs, and original Heathkit styling. Great candidate for restoration, ham radio project, or parts donor.
