    I can understand this completely! I chased Yamaha gear from the 80’s until 2010. Then I decided I wanted some Carver gear. I purchased new Paradigm speakers and started collecting gear. My problem all these years until about a month ago, was speaker placement. I have never set my speakers up correctly for the last 40 years. Gear was always hooked up right. Since my speakers are setup correctly, I am hearing things in the music I haven’t heard before. I guess an old dog can learn new tricks.......😀

    Welcome aboard the Carver OCCD train! This train makes various stops along the audio journey. If you decide you want a professional refresh on that amplifier we have several good techs here on the site. Have a look around and if you have questions ask.......grin

    Now that I have my speakers set to where I hear the stereo image, I was listening to Chuck Loeb’s “All there is” and engaged the SH. I was hearing a difference that sounded good, wider sound stage and instruments more separated. I have never had my speakers setup correctly until recently, so I have never heard SH function “correctly”. My speakers are not setup anywhere near the correct positions per the manual. But I am in the sweet spot when listening to music.

    Nice posts @Butcher! I think one that needs mentioned is Terry Knight who managed Grand Funk Railroad at one time. He screwed them over royally with what he calls “bad investments” and made off with a lot of their money before they finally found out about it........😔

    Great story as usual @Butcher! I love it! I can relate to the going into the stereo store and hearing and being drawn in by the great sound. It’s how I started my journey........grin

    Welcome @tpoppa! You have an impressive collection of gear and boxes and manuals! Since your gear is approaching 30 years old, a refresh on your amps will definitely keep them running longer and will definitely sound better. I have had all my amps refreshed and I could hear the before and after differences. I recommend it for a long term solution.......grin
