Fisher 800B Restoration
#7

I did power it up for very short time maybe 2 minutes before removing the chassis. It played with distortion in both speakers and the right speaker was very low with balance control equal. It did get somewhat louder when balance was turned to right channel only.
The stations came in where they should be on the dial and all lights were working and it changed btwn. FM and AM.
That's all I did and shut it off.
I will do what you advise. Can I use my 8ohm bookshelf speakers while working with it on the bench safely?
