@tvm62 Welcome to the Carver Site!! I assume that you will be putting those amps into service. Our library on Carver Car amps does not include your model. If you are looking for advice on what pieces of Carver Home Stereo equipment can replace the older stereo gear, I'm sure that you will find the answers here!! When you reach 5 reactions you should be able to post pictures as everyone here enjoys see pictures of audio equipment of any kind. Enjoy the Site!!

Oh, when your get 5 reactions you should be able to post pictures. I'm sure we all would like to see pictures of your gear and those speakers.

@Carverrocks Welcome to the Carver Site!! You will find a world of information on those speakers with just a few searches. This location Carver Manuals - TheCarversite! has manuals for those speakers lower down the list. Enjoy!!

Forgot this, 1. The amps used have to be identical models. 2. The speakers need to be identical. 3. The cables used have to be the same design for left and right. I tried to make all the cables running between the preamp and amps the same length. This also went for the speaker wires.

@aholloway17 First I have never done what you are asking about with a 1.0t. I think that they can be used to do a Vertical configuration unless someone has a reason why its not such a good idea. From what I get from your description it sounds like you hooked things up correctly. You can look at the below schematics to see if any of them resembles how you hooked yours up. The long of doing it with my two sets of amps (275 and TFM35) First, the switch on the back of both amps must be in stereo mode. Your speakers will need two sets of binding posts (high pass and low pass as some say) Don't know what configuration of binding posts you have on your speakers, but it sounds like you have this requirement. I had to remove the jumpers from my speakers before I started wiring them up. I purchased banana plugs for all the speaker wire to make this go somewhat easier. Its not a simple hookup and uses twice the amount of speaker wire and you will need two sets of "Y" cables which it sounds like you have. I made my own "Y" cables per this, This is the wiring diagram that I used for when I did a Vertical Bi-amp configuration. I also at one time wired it for a Horizontal Bi-amp confirmation per this, I think that I kept it in the Horizontal configuration only because I got tired of spending time moving my equipment and rack around. I just wanted to listen to my system. I did this for two different sets of amps and three configurations for each. First Two Carver Crimson 275s then Two Carver TFM35s in a Vertical configuration, then Horizontal configuration with the amps in stereo mode, and then just plain old bi-wired with the amps in mono mode. The why you have static and hum I can't answer that question.

Dexter Gordon is in the HOUSE!!

@Lovage Welcome to the Carver Site!! Looking forward to seeing your future posts and hearing about your wish list. Now that is a fine looking stack of Carver gear from @AndrewJohn and might be just the ticket for starting out. Two TFM-6CB's bridged in mono gets you 200 watts per amp out of that little box, and they have rack handles to boot!! Once again, Welcome home and enjoy the site!!

@UltraBitchin Your Avatar, does that happen to be a Nissan Fairlady 300ZX Turbo (Z31)?

@UltraBitchin Welcome to the Carver Site. Looking forward to hearing about any Carver gear you have and also your guitar amps.

Kind of that night here,

Thanks Dale @Receiver2000 . It is always a fun day, usually a Sunday. We work on either his race car or my restoration, and his mother makes a special lunch and we enjoy the meal with a few Jazz albums.

This is another one that I have on CD

Yes, its him. On the back cover they reference rippingtons.com.

Wish I could find a video of the music that was on this, Newport In New York '72 - The Jam Sessions, Vols 3 And 4, as we thought it was very good. When you look at the track list and the artists you will understand why. https://www.discogs.com/release/1838993-Various-Newport-In-New-York-72-The-Jam-Sessions-Vols-3-And-4

Prior to today I got my new stack down to 7. Just counted, he left behind 15 new albums, and we listened to three of his new stuff. My TT is loving the attention its getting.

Son came over and he had a bag full with albums. So........

@Thom Welcome to the Carver Site!! Being new to the Carver experience you started off with some nice pieces of equipment, and the topper is that you found Nelion. One option to consider while waiting for a C-19, is to have Nelion do the restore and BillD upgrade on the C-1. No matter which way you go it's a win win proposition!! Once again Welcome to the Carver Site!!

I'm thinking about this album next,
