GM and hi everyone! Very cool site. I recently added Carver TFM24 a month ago and love it! I have cobbled together a hybrid audio and home theater. My Carver driving older Polk RTA 11T as my fronts and Marantz 6012 for my NHTs with for surround - I Tested it as best I could at the time testing each ch with a speaker. I notice my power indicator light 1 (the bottom one) works. it lights but none of the signal lights from (LED 2 up to 7 don't light up) on the vertical LED's. I welcome any suggestions- regardless of what I am playing audio or action movies LEDs do not change ... Looking to see if I am not pushing it or are they just shot and can I replace them if they are? Not the only reason I am here but that is what led me to the site. - just found your site yesterday and am looking forward learning and checking out the various threads. Thanks!

Welcome aboard and congratulations on your acquisition! The issue with the LED's is an easy fix. You just gotta turn up the volume. I have a couple TFM-25 amps (same amp but with analog meters vs the LEDs). The meters move very little until you get it breathing a bit harder. I (dangerously, I know) assume the TFM-24 will act in a similar fashion to the mX.Xt series amps. The m1.0t, m1.5t, etc all behave this way - the LEDs don't start dancing until the system is getting pretty loud. Try turning it up (cautiously of course). Those Polks should handle all the Carver can feed it. Just don't drive the amp into clipping! Your Polks specs: Frequency response: 29Hz–20kHz ±3dB. Sensitivity: 90dB/W/m. Nominal impedance: 6 ohms. Amplifier requirements: 30–250W They will handle the 225 watts the TFM will dish out. Just be cautious and listen - if anything is unhappy it will let you know before anything bad happens. Let us know how it turns out!

Welcome to TCS!

thank you! for the greeting. It is quite a site... I hope it is that simple and that I can find them to replace the LEDs.. It is not hindering the sound or amplification, so no big deal but would be cool if I can replace them so they work. thanks again-
