In Reply to: RE: Mac 1500 vs Fisher 500c. posted by Eli Duttman on November 29, 2016 at 11:53:28
I never owned a Mac 1500, but a few Fisher 400s & 500s. The Fishers are nothing special in stock form. A little muddy IMO. But, after some simple mods & tube upgrades, the Fishers are great & very musical. They sound like a live performance. They are better than a modded Scott 340B too.

I would love to see the mods you used because I haven't found that to be the case at all. I agree that they are muddy and distorted but I would love to try Danny's mods or ones you used. The 340A I really like and the 340B is good as well with proper upgrades.

Michael, see my post above.
Fisher phono sections are notorious for poor bass extension. Reworking the phono section to use the tweaked RCA setup deals with that and allows the recording O/Ps to have respectable drive level.

Sony, have you ever tried any of the below tweaks that I put a link to in my below post? I still have to order the stuff to fix the riaa curve but the buffer after the volume really was a positive.
