I use Fisher tube equipment as my main source of audio pleasure. I own the last made model of tube receivers the "1800". Built in 1968, the last ditch effort for tube stuff. It was just a re-badged 800C with fake wood overlay on the faceplate, it even came with an 800C owners manual. I have tons of other Fisher stuff restored and unrestored.
Who else suffered? EVERY American name brand electronics Company and every worker who used to build their products. You used to hate the Japanese products taking over the American market now it's the Chinese. Kinda wish we had the Japanese stuff back again. At least it was reliable-ish sort of.
