  1. Hi - I just wanted to introduce myself..I'm Chino ..a lifetime Carver enthusiast..I've owned my equipment since I was stationed in Alaska. Purchased my Carver equipment one piece at a time at Pyramid Audio..(The people there were great...)Bought the C1 preamp, M500T amp, DTL cd player and a very if ever used TX11? Tuner..also a short lived Denon DP59L i sold only a few years ago..Can't live without my Dalquist DQM9C's that I've been listening to for 36 years straight everyday along with my C1 that never has been turned off. (except during shipment or an equipment shuffle.) So I can truly attest to Carver's build quality. I also have a C11 in the garage with a recently purchased Acurus 100x3 and Dahquist M905's?? that I placed dqm9c drivers and crossovers into..but.. I'm bluetoothing thru my phone and it all sounded a little too "screechy" on the vocals so I switched over to my CT17 preamp and you know what its not bad..but I don't have a RH balance (but the rh speaker works) unless I listen to it "cd direct" and then I lose the tone contols..but my C1 issue got me thinking about why in the first place I loved the Carver/Dalquist setup ..and it has to be the DTL..and I have two dtl players that don't play anymore, but I figured out a few years ago on my black DTL player that a drive scew keeps backing out..I may go back in and loctite it if I can remember which one..So anyway I'm looking for a DTL processor and I'm hoping that they made one in black..Got a lot more to say but I can feel you yawning..

  2. Hello, I'm Jeff, I found this site while searching for a Sunfire sub schematic. I have a small audio repair shop and don't get a lot of Carver stuff in but I did just finish a CM-1090. Looking forward getting to know everyone. Jeff

  6. The sun went behind the clouds and the temperature dropped so... I signed up for the three month trial of Amazon HD Music. EDIT - the weak link is Airplay 2 is limited to 24-bit 48kHz Background: I have been streaming Spotify Extreme 320 kbps for a few years now. My devices connect to my Parasound P5 - utilizing it's built in DAC via Optical and Coax. The Coax and optical inputs of the P5 accept all sampling rates up to 192 kHz, 24-bit Using my iPhone 8 Plus I stream TO one of two devices: *Airport Express (using the optical output to the P5) *Wyred 4 Sound Sonos Connect (using the coax output to the P5) The Sonos Connect is highly modified - it actually bypasses the oem Sirrius Logic CODAC and and is set to output at a rate of 96kHz. APPS USED: I use the terrific (well they recently upgraded it and managed to messed it up) SPOTIFY APP to stream SPOTIFY to the AIRPORT EXPRESS. I use the SONOS APP (still not a great APP) to stream SPOTIFY to the SONOS. Today reinstalled the AmazonMusic APP for my iPhone to stream AmazonMusic HD to my AIRPORT EXPRESS. They have recently upgraded the graphics and interface. You will notice that ULTRA HD notation below the album cover. If you click on it A POPUP displays the: TRACK QUALITY DEVICE CAPABILITY CURRENTLY PLAYING AT I won't have access to this information if I stream AmazonMusic HD via my SONOS APP. The SONOS APP allows you to access all of your services but has limited functionality. My DEVICE CAPABILITY (third picture) is limiting my playing quality (second picture) - What is the Weak Link? This is the pop up if you click on the ULTRA HD (yellow) This is the pop-up if you click on the Learn More
