Still needs a bit of work. All transformers work as they should.

Console pulled The Fisher 460A vintage EL84 tube amplifier approx late 1950′s or early 1960s (See label and serial number in photos). This amp has been fully restored electronically w/ modern capacitors + modifications to account for fact that stereo tuner is no longer present in the console, thus a bias resistor modification is made to properly bias the tubes (See 20 watt gold power resistor mounted to underside chassis). All capacitors and components are top quality such as Nichicon electrolytic and classic “Orange Drop” coupling caps, etc. The original top-side “MULTI-CAN” large capacitors were left in-place for vintage aesthetics while all new capacitors for the DC tube supply voltages were built into the underside as shown in the photos. New rectifier diodes were also installed as shown. A thermistor was added to the A/C input side to soften start-up current surge to the tubes and also add slight voltage drop to account for higher line voltages in today’s homes. The tubes are (2) Sovtek EL84 + (2) Russian 6P14P (EL84) for the power output + (2) 7247 for input stage : The amp, since it hadn’t been run in a while was “burned in” on the bench for approx 2 hours and ran perfect. I re-checked the bias and supply voltages and everything was in-spec. No hum, no sound issues – it’s running great. I will include a marked-up schematic and an original un-marked schematic to show the modification(s) and resistor values performed and needed to make these Fisher console amps run properly in stand-alone mode as was done to this one. An ON/OFF power switch was added (it appears the green LED light in it is out, but does not affect the power switch function). There is also a custom mesh steel plate bottom w/ plastic feet that was added allowing proper ventilation to keep the tubes running cooler. The bottom plate is steel – I left it un-painted as a new owner may want to paint it a custom color or build a wood case for the amp etc and thus it shows a bit of light surface rust as it’s not coated at this point. This amplifier is intended for a vintage tube amp collector or similar who is fully aware of what they are looking at in the photos and how to safely handle a tube amplifier if they remove the bottom cover etc as dangerous voltages are present.

1962 Stereo Tube Amplifier Here’s a beautiful Fisher 6BQ5 amplifier from a 1962 console… I was planning on restoring this myself, but I have no time so thought I would pass it on to someone else. This is all original, straight from the console! The transformers are all good, though due to it’s age this will obviously need a re-cap, etc, before operating. Excellent original condition, has the original Fisher Great Britain 12AX7 ECC83 tubes, both tested very strong, along with the 6BQ5 and 7189 tubes which all tested good too. The RCA 7189 tube showed a short on pin 9. These Fisher amps sound simply awesome, and are getting harder to find… Jimmy O Please see my other vintage Modern items, currently listed!
