Context
The Futura II F-210 belonged to Fisher's mid-tier Futura series, released during a pivotal moment in high-fidelity audio. Some sources give a 1969 introduction. The 1959 service manual and contemporary photographs show it was available by 1959.
Market
Owners say the receiver has "world class sound" and is "super scarce." Market value is still argued over. One forum user thought $1500 was excessive and said it wasn't worth even half that unless upgraded.
