😁Hi from East Tennessee I am a long time Carver fan bought my first piece 4.0 in 1989 I have two 4.0s 1AV405 on Carver .05 200 T and a Sunfire signature I am currently upgrading my bedroom 5.1 system

Found this site while researching some older Carver amps. Got my approval so here I am from Temecula CA. Looks like there's a fountain of knowledge residing here. After being stored away for the last 10 or 12 years I recently set up the Soundstream C-1 preamp I bought in 1990. Forgot how nice it was. Browsing the forums I see there are a few members familiar with the SS C-1. Listening to the C-1 for a couple weeks now I'm inspired to set up a separate audio system for my vinyl and cd's. I'm looking for a power amp to pair with the C-1. Seems the DA-1 is pretty scarce these days and my browsing has led me to Carver. My question for the vets here who know the C-1 is waddya think? I've been checking out some of the Carver M 1.0t that are around. My first inclination is that might be a good match. I'd greatly appreciate whatever input the pros here could provide. What other amps might provide a nice pairing with the C-1? Looking to stay in the same era as the C-1 with the amp. I also have the T-1 tuner I'll pull out of the closet...just because Any and all suggestions would be greatly welcomed. I'm seeing M 1.0t's in the $400-$600 range. That would be my comfort range in putting this system together. Thanks for the input, appreciated.

Yes I would be more than glad to post some pictures of my gear like I said I’m in the process of updating my 5.1 system in my bedroom which will include the two 4.0s in the M 200 T
