  1. Welcome to the site! Look around, ask questions, and from your background you will fit right in........grin
  2. Welcome jhouse55! Hope you like and enjoy the site! With the gear you have you will fit right in! As @BarryGsays, grab your favorite beverage, turn up the music and enjoy!
  3. Welcome to the site! We are all a bunch of audio gear heads who love music and gear. Congrats on your repair of the turntable! Now that you are here, you need to be aware of 2 things: 1. OCCD - worse than Corona virus, but you don't die from it. You go broke or in debt. 2. We are enablers. We encourage people to buy the gear they want or think they want. But mostly, enjoy the site......grin
  4. Welcome to the site! Glad you found us! We talk all things Carver and other gear too. Nice to get back into the audio world again......grin. Take a look around and enjoy the site!
  5. Yes, it happens to all of us. You sign up on this site and get a membership. Then you start hanging out here. Then you become infected from the rest of us carriers (enablers). This is worse than the Corona virus.......grin
  6. Welcome to the site! I would hook up the equipment in different combinations and listen to a few tracks and see what sounds best to you. If you are going to keep all your equipment (for any future systems......read OCCD here......grin) I would refurbish it so you can really enjoy it. I agree with Sk1bum, the C-1 and 4000 series preamps sound great when refurbished and the M500t amplifier as well. I own those same pieces and enjoy them. Experiment and see what you think.......grin
  7. Amen to that. It’s worse than the Coronavirus......lol
  8. Welcome Elmer! That is definitely a nice starter setup you have! It took me a while to collect those exact pieces. After you enjoy them for a while, you might want to get them refurbished so they will last a while and sound great! Enjoy the site and if you have any questions, just ask. There are great people here who will answer them.......grin
  9. Richard, can we add the same M200t category to amp repair and the 0.5t category to both sections of amps like the M200t? Thank you!
  10. I was noticing that in the different categories we don’t have all the equipment listed in them, such as no category for M200t in the amplifiers section. Others are missing too. Could these be included in the proper sections?
  11. Welcome Rob to the Carversite! We like Carver and all other audio. Take a look around and ask all the questions you want. Someone will answer them eventually.....grin
  12. That is why you do it when she is gone.......grin
  13. Welcome J-P stereo! Glad to have you here! You have a good start with your gear. Enjoy the site and your music. You won’t regret refurbing it.....grin
  14. Welcome CT12! The 490t is a nice player. I have one that I am going to recap. Reason is, caps are 30 years old, not because it sounds bad. All gear that old needs it. And, my experience has been it sounds better after a recap. YMMV. Enjoy the site and if you have questions, ask!
  15. Welcome to the site! You got a nice system for your first Carver system! If those components get a refurb, you will be set for life......grin. Congratulations on the first system and enjoy the music!
  16. We all are.......the addiction we have just varies between individuals......grin
  17. yes, this is possible. It adds to the expense of the C-1 and is labor intensive to do but it can be done. There are a few on the site that have these.
  18. Welcome to the site! That is a good choice , and popular choice for a preamp. They are quiet, have some mods to make them quieter and sound excellent. One of those refurbished would sound great! Enjoy the new site and if you have questions, ask away.......grin
  19. Iron Eagle soundtrack........grin
  20. Glad you found us! I would warn you about OCCD because it is contagious here. Enjoy the stay.......grin
  21. I think you were doing it right with the manual and the red wine.......grin. I have never tried to set it up. My room is not setup for it and speaker placement WILL not pass the WAF........grin
  22. I have a spin clean system and I like it. While I haven't listened to vinyl after cleaning (no device yet) I have cleaned some records with it.........grin
  23. Welcome to the site Peter! Congrats on your gear and refurb jobs! It’s a nice feeling ( and listening) to refurbing your own gear. There is plenty of information and great techs to help you with refurbing and upgrading it. Enjoy the site.
  24. I cannot select and save any settings in my account.
