Hmm... Well, I listen to a lot, but it generally falls into either the progressive or jazz genre most of the time.
Right now I'm listening to Lee Ritenour - Wes Bound. Earlier I was listening to Riverside - Rapid Eye Movement (Progressive rock / metal I suppose).
I'll get into that more in that sub forum!
As to the Carver gear - Its official - I'm now a carver owner.
I picked up a TFM25 and C1 today from my buddy for $200. Both are very clean.
I immediately cracked open the TFM and set the alignment to factory spec per the service manual.. Then I checked the DC offset (15mv Left and 22mv on Right) just to make sure nothing was going to cook my speakers since I didn't get a chance to test the amp. Not sure where these amps normally run for offset, but from what I have gathered based on other amps, those aren't bad values..
And since I know you guys are pic freaks - Here you go - my test rig setup.. sorry for the horrible iPhone pic. I don't feel like getting out my dslr atm..

So far I'm liking what I'm hearing.
Amp is very clean and only a little dusty inside - caps are not swollen at all.
