  1. Totally agree, however, you can't follow something if you don't know it exists. If new Sound Room topics are limited to only the sound rooms and removed from the main feed, it's difficult to keep current with new topics.
  2. I like it showing in the Recently Posted feed so it's easier to keep current without having to pop all over the site. I get what AJ is saying, it's the way it's displayed in the Sound Rooms area - almost like a summary of the topic, but not the topic itself.
  3. Have a wonderful Birthday!

  5. Maybe there's a new sound system for the car in the future Not sure what he has in there, but @Dnspy007 put together one for his truck that delighted Bob. So in case you'd like another project... lol
  6. Welcome to the forum, Will! We're happy to enable the Carver addition here ? The 500t is a most excellent choice!
  7. Merry Christmas, everyone! May it be filled with love, laughter, and music!
  8. Welcome aboard!
  9. Welcome to the forums!
  10. Welcome to the site! Lots of great people here who can help you out.
  11. Welcome aboard!
  12. I missed it! It's amazing how fast some of this stuff goes. There and poof! I'll start looking for those, though. Thanks, AJ @wrstps Wow, that has to sound amazing! I'd love to hear it once spring/summer hits, we're up in the northwestern area so it's a distance but worth it, I'm sure!
  13. Oh, thanks! I'll read through it. Never know, might come across another Knight Shadow with an amp board that'd need a recap. What really surprised me with the Knight Shadow is the heft of the box. Fed-X guy was handing it off to me with that 'careful' kind of look, but the box was small for a sub, so I didn't quite catch why until he released it lol It's a heavy, beefy bugger! Nice thick walls. lol OCCD is so contagious! What do you run as a receiver on your Carver system? I'm curious, in your restoral of the Knight Shadow, did you end up doing this? I copy/pasted it, wasn't sure how to quote across threads "Reading that ecoustics forum thread, it sure seems like there's a plethora of failures in these. Everything from transistors to rectifiers and capacitors to resistors. Looking at that story, I can't help thinking that it might be worth the time, effort and cost to just replace the rest of these components that I can get to (not the real small chip-sized) but the bigger rectifiers on the power and amp boards, and a few more of the transistors and diodes. ...kinda' like restoring a car, once you get inside the engine, putting back old valves, rods and pistons seems not to make sense when replacements are going to be better, and more likely to last longer."
  14. It has...bad... I'm infected!
  15. @Dennis47 Oh, that's a great idea! Heard them at CF, fantastic speakers, especially for the size.
  16. Thanks @Rod H and @AndrewJohn! I should start checking here first, seems there's all sorts of goodies floating around lol With the find of this lovely little Knight Shadow I've been toying with the idea of eventually switching all my non-Carver system gear to Carver. Just for fun and to see what it's like to have one brand across the entire system. Do you guys have thoughts/opinions on the smaller Carver speakers?
  17. It's here! Been looking for an intact Carver Knight Shadow sub, but couldn't find one. So, found a guy who was selling the speaker and another who was selling the shell. Turns out, the guy with the speaker did some hunting around his house and found the box! Two to choose from! hehe. Haven't located a Knight Shadow amp to drive it, so I weaseled @Nahash5150 into designing and building one to power it. Excited! I'll load more pics as the project continues. Right now I'm running a Martin Logan Dynamo on my system, but this was a Carver...and with an uber cool name...couldn't resist.
  18. Welcome to the site and the world of Carver!
  19. Welcome back, @GarciaFan!
