Hi
Certainly a very valid response, as I have no experience with Fisher receivers. I agree, if the power supply cans are OK, then leave them alone. However, if they are weak it shouldn't be hard to find new cans for $25 - $35 each that are of very high quality. I bet Jim McShane has some. The EH output tubes are $80 for a matched quad from Jim. I also agree that most of the small signal tubes are probably just fine. I just checked and there is a guy on epay who is selling the entire cap kit for $85. I have no idea how good the original caps are and what kind of shape they are likely in. I leave that to people with more experience on Fishers. If it were mine I would replace every cap and put Russian PIO's in for the coupling caps, but that's me. But output tubes and a cap kit are only $165 for parts. Labour simply can't be that bad. 4 or 5 hours I will wager. Biasing has to be pretty simple. All you need is a DVM and a screwdriver I am sure...... I would guess he could do it himself.
cheers,
Don
