Welcome!

I wish I had bought two of the Iron Butterfly albums. About a week later I decided to buy another one and they were all gone.

I just ordered two. One for me and one for the retirement fund.

Hello and welcome aboard. It is most likely this IC: https://www.ebay.com/itm/TC9147BP-IC-to-repair-CARVER-MXR-130-150-900-2000-THE-RECEIVER-TX-2-TX-11-TC9147/220863094475?epid=1531991873&hash=item336c775ecb:g:-owAAMXQya1Q8fsP The same seller has lots of MXR-130 related restoration parts. I bought most of them to get my MXR-150 up and running. I'm no expert so wait for the techs to chime in.

Welcome to The Carver Site! Greg has restored quite a few items for me and I couldn’t be happier. Good luck with your 900.

Welcome to The Carver Site Ed. This is a fun place to be as you're about to discover. I lived in Phoenix from age 11-18. Nice place to live.

My turntable is packed up so I haven't had a chance to listen to the new SRV vinyl. I have other 45 RPM vinyl and to me I just hear a fuller sound. I hear things that I didn't previously hear listening to a regular recording. Then again my hearing isn't that great so I need to turn it up loud. Being a jet mechanic in the Navy didn't help my hearing one bit. Oh well, a small sacrifice that I gladly paid. It does come in handy when I don't feel like answering my wife though....lol.

I am also a SRV fan. I've seen him in concert a few times and loved watching him play the guitar. The man was a guitar playing genius. I considered buying the one you mentioned but ended up going with this: https://www.musicdirect.com/vinyl/stevie-ray-vaughan-texas-hurricane-limited-edition-200g-45rpm-vinyl-12lp-box-set They are also 45 RPM and were produced using the original master tapes. They were having a 10% off sale at the time and free shipping over $49.

A friend of mine just gave me a set of plywood to build a record bin. His came out very nice. I'm going to use a Kreg pocket hole jig to build mine to eliminate any screws being seen from the outside. At the link below is a very long discussion with many bin versions being discussed. https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/record-bin-from-single-4-x-8-sheet-of-plywood-plans.337891/

Welcome to The Carver Site!

I just placed an order with a ship date of 7/31.

Welcome aboard! I'm in Everett, WA. Good to see another WA member.

Welcome to The Carver Site! I lived all over the SoCal area for over 20 years. I miss that fantastic weather.
