Returning in this audiophile passion I have bought two Carver amps , a TFM45 and a TFM25, in a "Only for spare parts "condition .... The 25 start runing easy after recap and relay clean , but the 45...... After some extra time (on year) I finally repair it. the failure appears after some months . Changing all output transistor and insulation pads finally don't fail any more. Really I enjoy it so much

Next step...... Stop doing chores, stop shaving and get a wild-eye look going. Then, start collecting speakers. You got this.

I have some RS-7 Kappas I'm selling for a friend (not a plug) and I am so impressed. I hope they don't sell for a while

Yeah! What he said. Welcome aboard Alf57. Glad you found us. What he said too. You should be able to post pics now that you've reached Novice status.

I had some Klipsch Heresies. They weren't my favorite. Lacked bass....and, well, I think the horns are really an acquired taste....they kinda put the treble right in your face. If you're looking for Vintage speakers, I love the 1980's Infinity speakers- RS Kappa Series (8 or 9's....and don't let them scare you the whole "amp killer" thing.... Carver amps can handle them. I'm partial to the original line, not the x.1 's). Or their predecessors, the RS series, RS III, RS II, or even RS I if you have a lot of $ and space. I have a pair of RS IIIb's that I swear are the best ever. If you're looking to buy new, I'm partial to Bowers and Wilkins. I don't own any, but every pair I've ever heard is fantastic.
