Looking forward to more Carver gear now that I have access to this community! Greetings from the Northwest.

Greetings from the South Island of New Zealand. recently purchased a TFM-35 and started the journey of discovering all things Carver. Realised the TFM 35 was too good for the original project so have bought a M200T. Its supposed to be not operational but for $100 thought I'd roll the dice & see if the local electronics guru's can get it up & running. I'm sure this site & you folk are going to be a great source of knowledge. thanks .

Thanks Glenn. it was a search for info that led me to find the Carversite. Google is sometimes good !

Update on the Sunfire Load Invariant Stereo amp: I replaced all the caps in the amp minus the main filter caps. I replaced 2) 13v zener diodes, 2) 1N4004 diodes, 1) MJE2955T transistor, and 1) MJE3055T transistor. Now it works and sounds great! Pairs great with the Sunfire tube pre amp. I would take pictures but they are too large to post 🤷 P.S. My amp is an early generation with an attached power cord and slightly different and simpler power supply design. No on/off/auto switch on the back either.

Some of the photos I took while I was there...so those who could not make it can live vicariously through the start of the event. Tom

Welcome! If you haven't already located them, the service and owner's manuals for your amps are located up in the 'Manuals and Specsheets' pulldown at the top of any page. The Carver amps of this vintage are very serviceable.
