Fisher Allegro A19
The Fisher Allegro A19 is a tube-based stereo console - a self-contained unit that paired a tuner, amplifier, and turntable in a single cabinet. Not much is documented about it, and what is comes from two very different sources: a Wikimedia Commons file page and a 2025 repair log. Together they confirm the basics. It was a portable console configuration with the Allegro A19 tube tuner and a companion model X19 amplifier.
The X19 amplifier is the more interesting half of the pair. It uses the ELL80/6HU8 tube, a double output pentode from the 1960s that is now quite rare. The amplifier was rated at roughly 20 watts per channel. After that the record thins out fast. No original price, no production years, no tuner specifications and no turntable details have turned up in the available documentation.
The one real-world data point comes from a repair shop. A technician at Provo Electronics logged a Fisher Allegro A-19 console on 07-15-2025 with the complaint of "low sound on both channels." The diagnosis was a dead low/middle-range speaker in the right door. No further resolution details were recorded.
Replacement LED lamps are available for the front panel, and both service and owner manuals exist for the series. Nothing else about the model, including detailed specs or where it sat in Fisher's lineup, is recorded.
