I got this beautiful Fisher 800-B from the original owner who purchased it in 1962 and kept it in its original boxes for many years. I had it serviced and recapped, keeping original tubes. I’ve been using it for about two years, and it sounds amazing. This is an extraordinary unit, one of Avery Fisher’s finest early-1960s designs, presented here in exceptional, collector-grade condition. In addition to its historical importance for its unique AM and FM features that represent the bridge between mono and stereo multiplex broadcasting, it offers extraordinary sound. I have a turntable, CD player, and Bluetooth receiver connected to it. Bluetooth receiver included. It will be the centerpiece of any vintage system.


Condition & Highlights

-Excellent original walnut case — clean, sharp, and well cared for

-Faceplate and knobs in excellent condition (bright, clean lettering, no corrosion)

-Fully recapped and professionally serviced

-Original tube complement

-Magic eye tuning indicators fully functional

-Includes Bluetooth receiver for streaming

-Includes original boxes/packaging (rare and highly desirable)

This unit is ready to enjoy immediately — no buzzing, weak channels, or restoration projects needed. The sound is everything the 800-B is famous for: rich, warm, spacious, and musical, with excellent FM performance and a superb built-in phono stage.


Why This One Is Special

Many Fisher 800-Bs on the market are either:

-unserviced,

-cosmetically compromised,

-missing original tubes,

-lacking original cabinet and packaging.

This example checks every premium box — making it ideal for both listening and collecting.
