Rival Sons Pressure and Time

Actually I'm having a shop in Chicago do the work. He's never done this mod b4 but he has done good work for me. I've sent him many links from this website. I wanted to do it myself but doubt I would have it done by the time I need it. Looks like the pros here are backlogged otherwise I would have gone that route.

Cerwin Vega DX9. 4 ohm. I recently redid the xrossovers with new Dayton caps. Also new foam on the woofers. Bringing them and the amp to a party at an American legion hall in July.

I had a chance to get the C-1 off of CL recently for 150. It was listed for 5 days when I found it. Someone beat me to it when I found it, rats!

I'm already looking into a C-1 or something else. Sonic holography sounds interesting. I watched all 30+ minutes of Miss Hologram. I am using a Sansui Ca-2000 as it's my only pre amp now. I bought it because I've read claims of a warm tube sound. I've read similar posts about the 500. Wonder if anyone else uses a Sui pre?

I will definitely post some pics. The black metal case is in somewhat bad shape. No rust but doesn't look good after cleaning. I think I'm going to spray some Rustoleum hammer black paint on it. I like the look of it.

Is the her305 and her305-T the same? the 305 is a non stocked Mouser item and the other 305s have different letters. The 305 is called ultra fast and the 305T is considered Standard. Thanks for your input I use the Rectron HER305. I recommend going with this one. I am not sure if the Vishay UF5404 has been used by the other tech's.

Thanks for the welcome and replies. I've only had this up a little past 1DB on the meters with my CV's. Can't imagine 2 or 4 of these in a system! I'll be using the amp with the DX9's at a party a friend of mine hosts every year in the SW Chicago area this July 23rd. Anyone local that would like to attend pm me. It runs noon to midnight. Long day. It's going to be one hot amp!

Wow, that's quite a rack you have there. I'll be using the amp with a pair of CV DX9's in my apartment. Going to put a sign on my door "If it's to loud you're to old"

Hello all, I've been a collector of vintage audio for about 8 years now. Mostly Sansui and Marantz recievers. Lately I've been picking up separates and came across my 1st Carver amp, the M500T. I like the fact that it puts out lots of power,cool meters and very portable. Just ordered parts for the MKII mod and looks like I've ordered 2 different sets of Diodes for D401 thru D404. http://preview.tinyurl.com/zxmtjud and http://preview.tinyurl.com/htalf43 Rectron and Vishay. Looks like specs are similar but can someone suggest which brand would work the best. Thanks Ken
