Fisher MT6360 (c. 1983–1987)
The deck uses a DC servo motor driving a 270 mm aluminium platter via belt. The tonearm is a static-balanced S-shape with hydraulic damped lift, fitted with an Audio Technica AT92E cartridge as standard. The platter and arm sit on a rigid, low-resonance cabinet of 8 mm particle board finished in walnut veneer, and the dust cover has a damped lifting mechanism.
Operation is flexible: fully automatic, semi-automatic, or manual. In full auto, the arm moves to the lead-in groove, lowers, and returns to rest at the end of the record. In semi-auto, you place the arm yourself but it returns automatically at the end, and the motor switches off. The strobe light and fine speed control let you monitor speed accuracy and adjust pitch — a feature HiFI-Stereo (January 1981, p.43) highlighted when introducing the model, along with its microprocessor-controlled track selection.
Known specifications are modest: wow and flutter rated at 0.08% WRMS, rumble at −60 dB (DIN B), stylus pressure range 0–3 g, and output of 3.5 mV. Dimensions are approximately 420 × 120 × 350 mm, weight about 5.5 kg.
One note on the record: one source lists the drive as "direct drive," but this contradicts the belt-drive specification given by every other source, including the more detailed listings — belt-drive is the correct call here. No original price, production quantities, or service history survive in the archive.
