Welcome to the forum Sir... Glad to have you on board.....

Hello, I am new to the carver world and actually just starting to get into home audio. Originally, I had a Yamaha receiver with a klipsch surround sound system which I thought sounded pretty darn good until a friend showed me his setup; consisting of a mxr150 with a pair of carver m200t amps running to some CV 15in pa's. I was completely blown away by how crisp, clear, and accurate it sounded. Needless to say, I now have my own mxr150 and a set of d-5s for now and my klipsch system sits in the garage. I am definitely interested in learning more about carver equipment and expanding my inventory so I figured this would be a great forum to be on.

Welcome!!!! Great to have you gburke. Glad that you found us and you will like it here. Lots of great guys here always willing to help......and make you laugh😁.

Welcome! I believe I might be helping you expand your inventory. M-1.0t, maybe? Rob's already a goner, but what a way to go...

Welcome! It wasn't that long ago, that my system was based on a Yamaha receiver. They are no slouch when it comes to sound, but hearing something at the level of Carver gear can be quite an inspiration. I had known what I was missing, but your "friend" @Rob just dragged you to the brink of the OCCD abyss, and shoved you over the brink. Your wallet will shortly be taking a contract out on him. (Well done, Rob - throwing your friends to the lions! I'm proud of you.) The good news is that getting into a Carver based system can be quite reasonable, and the equipment lends itself really well to being maintained, and in some cases vastly improved, from an already amazing level. The downside is that given it's age, it's all at the point of needing a cap job. Electrolytic capacitors having about a 25 year life span, give or take. There no end, and no way out, so sit back, and enjoy the ride!

Welcome aboard! OCCD is a sickness, but it is the best one I know of! Glad you are starting your journey!
