Welcome to the Carver site!! In addition to the schematics & parts list that @Half Life provided the link for, look at pages 6 and 7 of the AV505 Owner's Manual Carver AV-505 Amplifier Owners Manual for some interesting additional support information. I can only hope that the board and information shown in the pictures represents the boards that are found in your unit. Welcome!!

Hi Betty and Welcome to the Carver Site!! I like your B&W CDM 9NT speakers!! What is their finish? Reach out to Nelion Audio - Authorized Carver Repair to see if they will look at your 772.

Looked at a pair, one was black and the other was tan, so I can see why you changed it back to tan. It just looked more pleasing and, as you said, correct.

The Pioneer CS-A700s kind of reminds me of my Coral speakers. Same time period and manufactured in Japan. The 700s are very nice and I agree with you about not experimenting with them. They are a classic. I find it interesting that they have a Service Manual for your speakers, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/4316915/Pioneer-Cs-A700.html?page=2#manual

Welcome to the Carver Site!! It sure looks like you are starting off with a nice selection of Carver equipment. I have bi-amped a set of Paradigm speakers first with a set of TFM35s then two Crimson 275s. Can't imagine trying to do a tri amp. What speakers will you be using? Wish you the best, and looking forward to hearing about your project.

Oh, and Welcome to the site.

Just contact this place and have them restore them for you. The 15 https://nelionaudio.com/index.php?/services.html/carver/carver-amplifiers/carver-tfm-1515cb-restore-r23/ The 35 https://nelionaudio.com/index.php?/services.html/carver/carver-amplifiers/carver-tfm-35-35x-restore-r10/ Don't know if a kit exists but for the most part if it does it will probably not address any hidden problems. Statement from their site on just the 15, (read about the 35) "They need to be serviced properly! The restore for the Carver TFM-15(cb) amp includes replacement of all consumable parts, output relay, reflow of critical solder, all service bulletins, cleaning inside and out. The unit is fully tested to spec, burned in, and played on our critical listening rack and speakers." You will get them back better than new. Best money you will ever spend.
