    Fisher RS-100 RS-200 RS-1000 RS-2000 Series Library Reference Thread

    The People are of a Different Opinion... Larry, I find it rather ironic that your "recommended action" literally stops any further work from happening. My opinion is to leave the thread unlocked because it is not my inaction but rather, the inaction of others that has caused the project to...

    Panasonic Thruster series

    In post #76 33&athird says: > Dude, no freakin' way. Just made my day... I'm sure there are other people who are interested in these Panasonic systems as well, but they just don't want to admit it. I started out my audio experience with AM pocket radios and AM car radios at the age of 11...

    Fisher RS-2010 Darlington pack STK-0080 or 0105?

    Fisher RS-2010 Darlington pack STK-0080 or 0105?

    Another different Sanyo datasheet reflects echowars' aforsaid cites for the STK-0080 and STK-0105 specification for 8 ohm loads. My interest continues with the physical and electrical design of the STK-0105 as distinguished from the STK-0080. A further closer examination of the Sanyo...

    Fisher RS-2010 Darlington pack STK-0080 or 0105?

    And... The answer is... Nope. The pristine condition Fisher RS-2010 receiver we have here is a factory original that has come through equipped with the originally specified STK-0105 power packs. STK-0105s are substantially larger than STK-0080s being both wider and taller than STK-0080s...

    Fisher RS-2010 Darlington pack STK-0080 or 0105?

    As previously discussed in this thread and at least half a dozen other Fisher threads here on AK, Fisher model RS-2010 receivers are commonly equipped from the factory with Sanyo STK-0080 power pack modules. STK-0080 power pack modules are rectangular with perfectly square corners. There is...

    Fisher RS-2010 Darlington pack STK-0080 or 0105?

    Several years ago, I read this thread and ever since that time, I've had this thread in the back of my mind. As I have recently acquired relevant new material it is time to update this thread. Here are pictures of the specific receiver in question, in this case a pristine condition Fisher...

    GFA-565 biasing/temp/etc

    "Am I right in thinking that the first thing to check is the offset/bias?" Yes, you should always check the amplifier DC offset / bias first before hooking up any speaker to an amplifier of unknown status. This is especially true concerning Adcom 500 series amplifiers as Adcom 500 series...

    Questions about my Fisher RS-2015

    > I picked up a Fisher RS-2015 this week for $40.00 (I hope I didn't overpay). No, you didn't over pay. You've scored a sweet deal for 150 watts RMS a channel. How many receivers have you ever seen that have massive heat sinks all the way across the back like the RS-2015 does? An instant...

    Onkyo tx-6500 mkii beast!

    For those who may be interested, I recently digitized a pristine quality Onkyo 6500MKII service manual at 300DPI 11x17 in color and uploaded it to HiFi Engine. This service manual was free to me from a fellow AK'er, and now it is free to you. This is an actual 900x900 pixel crop from the...

    Fisher rs2010 innards?

    The more I contemplate this matter the more details and information I want. I have a Fisher RS-2015 that shows very clear signs the power transformer has been replaced. The repair was done rather hastily although the clues are not easily seen to the casual observer. The replacement is a...

    Receiver and Amp nudies! Post them if ya got them!

    Fisher RS-2010. 100 Watts RMS into 8 ohms. Personally, I hate the low resolution "nudie pics" that I so commonly see because I can't make out any of the receiver's finer details. Thanks to the extensive coding abilities made available by the vBulletin programmers and the right huge image...
