3rd Force, Gentle Force (album). This one is a very nice Sunday morning (or any morning) ease into your day listen.

Hello Jason and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! Congrats on getting your receiver going, and I wish I could point you in the right direction on your amp. I have an M500t in two different systems, and it's my favorite amp. Hopefully someone who knows this amp will chime in, and I wish you the best of luck with your repairs.

The Braxton Brothers, Higher (album)

3rd Force, Force Field (album)

I saw her live at the Bikes, Blues, & BBQ bike fest in Fayetteville Arkansas. Amazing show! Had never heard of her, and now I have everything she's recorded. Her 'Like It On Top' album is my favorite of her work, but there's not a bad album in her catalog. Like It On Top was produced by Keb Mo.

Now something entirely different, for me anyway. Todd Rundgren, A Wizard, A True Star (album)

Markets have been much kinder to me the last few days.

My daily dose. The Rippingtons, True Stories (album)

Jeremy Pelt, Our Community Will Not Be Erased was released on February 27, 2026. "Trumpeter and composer Jeremy Pelt successfully delivers one of the most purposeful statements of his career so far on his latest release “Our Community Will Not Be Erased”. This is an album that balances cultural affirmation with musical sophistication, its nine original compositions holding the listener’s attention throughout. " You can read the rest of the review here...

Bob Reynolds, Eddie Told Me So was released on February 13, 2026. "So when I saw the premise for this album from Reynolds, I knew it would hit the sweet spot, and it does on all levels. Each tune is emotive and showcases the perfect tone and feel that Reynolds always has when playing. It’s a great listen, for jazz aficionados, end-to-end."

My daily dose. The Rippingtons, Fountain of Youth (album)

Hello madrussian and welcome to thecarverstie.com. Glad you found us! Great story and thanks for sharing it. As Half Life stated, many of us have followed the same path. I too, have Martin Logan speakers driven by an M500t mkII, and they are magical to my old ears. It's a rare day that I don't spend at least an hour listening in bliss.

Greg Rahn, Side Hustle was released on January 15, 2026. "Playing a plethora of keyboards and such, Greg Rahn delivers a jazzy album that sounds like what Steely Dan might have sounded like if they abandoned to rock route." You can read the rest of the review here...

Hello pvcarver and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! Almost any preamp will work with those amps, but a C-1, C-11, or a 4000t is almost magical. All three of those preamps can be modded to where they are magical. I hope you find a combination that you love. If you have questions, feel free to ask. We love spending other people's money.
