FS: Fisher KX-100 Integrated Amplifier / $175.00 USPS MO
I have (1) Fisher integrated amplifier for sale for $175 via USPS MO,
firm. Amplifier does not work properly and needs to be gone through. Transformers are perfect however and does not appear to need filter caps. I think it may have been incorrectly assembled originally or monkeyed with prior to me getting it but without a schematic or the patience to troubleshoot, I just want to move it. Here it is - http://home.comcast.net/~mechanized/images/fisher.jpg More detail - The amp comes with (2) new Sylvania 12AX7's but you will need to procure (4) additional 12AX7's. The 7868's are good, 3 test strong but one is iffy and should be replaced. I have also installed repro knob caps on all the knobs. Faceplate is near mint as well. Chassis has the usual Fisher spottiness but is not terrible. The bottom cover of the amp is not original but fits OK and has what appear to be the correct feet. Overall, this amp presents very nicely. I am also tired of eBay and having been stiffed the last few listings, I am going to try this the old fashioned way, posting an FS to rec.audio.tubes which I haven't done in nearly 10 years. Consder this my bold defiance of eBay and the desire for things the way they once were. If you are interested in this amp, email me at . I can also provide you with my eBay ID with over 450 solid feedbacks. I am in the Boston area. |

Fisher amps are quite forgiving, well-supported in the after-market, and after taking this very nice if rather simple beast through the full range of troubleshooting and bringing it back up to full operational condition, you will not only actually learn something, but have quite a viable piece that you may be able to sell at a profit (assuming you do reasonably good work) to get your next piece and maybe learn from that. It even has a not-half-bad phono pre-amp section that will not give you "congestion". Peter Wieck Wyncote, PA |

I looked at what similar working & non-working units sold for on eBay and then priced this one well under them. (My thinking is that by offering it here, an enthusiast might benefit.) Comments appreciated. |

Our local one up here, NEARfest, had little cool to offer. Too bad your van-load was not there. |
