Welcome to the rabbit hole. We all say we have enough but end up still getting more!

Hi, Im new to this site. From norcal area. Loved carver gear since they came out in early 90’s. Im a tube head and recently (6 months ago) got a carver sd/a 490t as a Cdp on my system. Looking forward to recapping this unit. The unit already sounds awesome as it is.. but ...the love to see what lies ahead if i do a recap is a worthy journey...

Hi, I’m new to Carver stuff. Resurrected my stereo from the 70’s. Currently evaluating a Sunfire Symphonic preamp. Seeking info on it. Will post in the Sunfire forum. Oldie

I was in that shop on Saturday, I didn't see these (its an old posting - they might have sold). I went in there to look around and walked out with a pair of speakers.

Hello Ct12, and welcome to thecarversite.com. We're glad you're hear. There is a lot of information here, much technical know how, and a pretty good bunch of folks that are happy to help. You'll find several other tube heads here, too. Please consider uploading some pics of your gear in the Members Systems area. We all like pics of all kinds of audio gear. In the meantime, kick your shoes off, turn up the music, and welcome aboard.

Welcome to the Carver Site!

I picked up a pristine set of Advent Heritages for $100. I've always like these and the wood was immaculate. One thing that caught my eye, He had a set of Martins. Not Martin-Logans, but Martins. Nice looking speaker but I couldn't find any info on them. Like Zeinith4me says, he has a lot of neat stuff. Hard to go there and not buy anything.

Welcome Ct12

Welcome, I’m in the North Bay myself.

Welcome CT12! The 490t is a nice player. I have one that I am going to recap. Reason is, caps are 30 years old, not because it sounds bad. All gear that old needs it. And, my experience has been it sounds better after a recap. YMMV. Enjoy the site and if you have questions, ask!
