Hi Pete C and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! The TFM amps are popular here, and the C2 is a very nice pre. I'm not familiar with the Dynaco pre. Once you get to Novice status, consider uploading some pics of your gear in the Members Systems area. We all like pics of all kinds of stereo and home theater setups.

Hi Yippikia and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. I'm not familiar with the TFM series of amps, but they're very popular here. I would assume that the LEDs are replaceable. They are on the M series of amps. Perhaps others with experience will chime in.

Chris Parker Septet, Reunion was released on March 6, 2026. "It is evident from the first tantalizing notes of "Emmy's Shuffle" that Parker chose his songs and his companions with care. The septet performs seamlessly as a unit and boasts a number of strong and resourceful soloists, from saxophonist Alejandro Aviles and trombonist Doug Beavers, to baritone Dave Riekenberg, violinist Rob Thomas and Parker himself, who plays the sort of chameleon-like piano that nestles comfortably in any groove—which is a good thing, as the scope of his music ranges from blues and bop to funk, Latin, mainstream jazz and beyond."

April Varner, Ella was released on March 20, 2026. "It would seem that, when vocal chops were distributed, April Varner received more than her fair share. And although she only started singing jazz in 2016, seven years later in 2023, she succeeded in capturing the International Ella Fitzgerald Vocal Competition’s top prize. Now, as a seasoned artist with a brace of albums under her belt, ‘Ella’ finds her paying hommage to her inspiration, the incomparable Ms Fitzgerald, whose sumptuous voice was ever an instrument of joy and magnificence."

Peter Erskine, Peregrine was released on April 10, 2026. "Piano trio records are everywhere, and plenty of them blur together after the first few songs. Peregrine is a different story. Peter Erskine had been wanting to record some of these songs for years — “God Only Knows,” “Wichita Lineman” — and when the right moment came, he brought in pianist Alan Pasqua, a longtime collaborator, and bassist Scott Colley, who was new to the partnership and brought a fresh energy. You can hear it in the playing — a looseness and joy that makes the whole record feel like these three couldn’t wait to get in the room together. Nearly every track is a first take. When the bass and piano are this locked in, when the drums are this perfectly placed, why would you do it again?" You can read the rest of the review here...
