Hello HoraceAnkle and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! You're doing just fine, and here's where you will find threads on the MXR-130 and other Carver receivers: https://thecarversite.com/forum/82-receivers/ There are six pages of topics, and there are 3 related to the MXR-130 on the first page. One of the threads was started by @Nahash5150, the owner of Nelion Audio, and the Technical Admin here. I hope that helps.

Excellent idea!

Hello Reel Bond and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. As Charlie pointed out, the TFM75 amps are rare and expensive. Personally, I'd say no thanks unless the cash boot was enough to replace the TFM 75. I did a search of the various auctions and audio listings, and there aren't any TFM 75s listed that I could find. The last few listings I've seen have been in $2K range, but I don't know if they sold or not. Occasionally you will see a listing for $1500. From what I've read here, the PT2400 is the professional version of the TFM 75. Both amps are discussed here is several threads, and maybe some of the folks with first hand experience will chime in. I hope that helps.

Hello robpar and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! The difficulty of updating/refreshing/upgrading your receiver depends on your skill set. For me, it would be impossible, but there are many here that can probably do it in their sleep. If you have any doubt, the goto place is www.nelionaudio.com . @Nahash5150, the tech admin here, is the owner of that business, and the best in that business.

Hi jerry6 and welcome back to thecarversite.com. Glad you found your way back. I use an M500t mkII in my main stereo rig, and I love it. Good to hear that yours is still holding up. One thing hasn't changed, we want pics.

They never get old. I can cue up all 20 albums that I have on the WiiM, and Jazz Cat all day long.

Sometimes, a poor memory is a good thing.

I also like your idea of a double dose.

Hello BlowUpTheMoon and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. Nice handle. Are you related to Marvin The Martian? Good luck with the refoam. I'm they'll sound great driven by that Sunfire amp.

Hello Schuitema and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. Nice set of equipment there. The TFM 45 is a very popular amp, and the Amazing speaker line is to. 4krow is the guy here for the C9. He won't steer you wrong. What preamp and what sources do you use? Once you get to Novice status, consider posting pics of your gear in the Members Systems area. We all like pics of all kinds of stereo and home theater gear.

Mine too, until I listen to the next one.
