£35 is a strong buy if this is the expected FM-100 tube tuner and it’s complete; comparable working examples commonly land well above that, while even untested or parts units often ask more. At that price, you’re paying bargain money for a proper vintage Fisher piece rather than collector money.
What makes it worthwhile is the classic Fisher FM sound and the appeal of an early, well-built tuner with genuine hi-fi pedigree. If it powers up and tunes cleanly, the upside is excellent; just confirm it includes the knobs, dial glass, and any original trim or cabinet pieces, since those matter more than usual on a low-priced vintage tuner.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Fisher is an American hi-fi name founded in 1945 in New York by Avery Fisher. In the vacuum-tube and early stereo era, The Fisher Radio Corporation built a strong reputation for carefully engineered, high-quality home audio gear and helped define what “hi-fi” meant to serious listeners in the 1950s and 1960s.
Historically, Fisher’s core products were amplifiers, receivers, tuners, and other home audio electronics rather than modern lifestyle categories like headphones, DACs, or cables. The brand was especially associated with tube amplifiers and stereo receivers, along with related components that brought higher-fidelity sound into mainstream living rooms.
Today, Fisher is best understood as a vintage-collector and heritage hi-fi brand rather than a current high-end market leader. Its classic equipment is respected among enthusiasts for its sound quality, build, and historical importance, while the brand itself has long since moved away from its original position as a premium American audio manufacturer.
