Kay Kyser Did You Mean It(1936)

Shep Fields Did I Remember (1936)

Welcome to the Carver Site!! I'm kind of reading behind the lines, sounds like these units were maybe operating in a 120v location then they moved to the UK? On the C-1 have you taken a look inside? Some have a switch (SW15) near the power supply. Switch in question - Black item, far right center below white card on top of power supply. If the C-1 has this switch already installed then maybe at least the C-1 has a chance of being restored and upgraded by Nelion. The type of plug will also need to be looked at. What type do both have? US or European? As for the C-4000 I have no Idea if it has a similar switch. While not the most elegant of options it does sound like a Step-up transformer might be the first option? Maybe. When you get 5 or more likes please post some pictures.

It is hard to find anything bad by Dave. My personal fave is Nightlines. The cool thing is about this shop is, I am heading up to Aberdeen this weekend for my 50th HS reunion (OMG I am old!). I will have to stop in to see what new pieces he has.

Welcome !!!!!! Great to have you with us. Hope that you get the C-4000 and C-1 sorted and that you can enjoy them.

Grusin's "One of a Kind" is killer. Especially "Playera".

Finally getting around to playing a batch of records I picked up at a 2nd hand store in lil ol Aberdeen, WA. The owner of the shop has a good idea for good quality recordings! I pay a little bit more ($8-12), but every single piece has been near mint in terms of media quality. Here are two pieces I listened to tonight:

You ever make it back up this way? I'm constantly looking for ppl willing to haul broken gear from Eville area back up my way! lol

Welcome to TCS! Was born and raised in Central IN, now in southern IN. Glad to have you here.

Welcome to TheCarverSite, @roryhamilton. I take it you are in the UK? I don't have an answer for you on the power supply change to 240..., maybe someone else here might have an old EX (export) unit for parts you could use. ...another question: Are we to assume you already have a US C-1 and C-4000 that is made for 120v? And you want to convert it for UK use? What about using a transformer, and keeping it at 120v? That might be easier to achieve.
