Howdy Ron and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you onboard. Hope you enjoy your stay with us. We LOVE electronics porn. Please post photos of your toys in Member's Systems when you get a chance.

Right diaphragm, wrong frame. (It fits the physically smaller opening in the AT-12.)

Novus works on deep scratches too, it just takes longer to buff them out. For the square footage you have I'd invest $40-50 in an electric orbital buffer:

Why recone if the only issue is a dented dust cap? Most times you can pull the dent out with a piece of tape or a dental pick. If that doesn't work cut it off with an exacto knife and glue on a new one. I've used Novus scratch remover and polish to refinish acrylic turntable covers. Worked great on the thick acrylic lenses on my M-500(t)s and TX-11b too.

Howdy Bob and welcome to the forum. Are ya gonna make us beg for stystem photos?

Howdy Greg and welcome to the forum. Thanks for the link.

Cool beans Gene. Anytime is a good time to go LP hunting. I really miss the Dusty Groove, Reckless Records and Val's Halla in Chicago.

Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is THE BEST. ― Frank Zappa I'm vile and perverted. I'm obsessed and deranged. I've existed for years but very little has changed. I'm the tool of the government and industry too. For I'm destined to rule and regulate you. You may think I'm pernicious, but you can't look away. I'll make you think I'm delicious with the stuff that I say. I'm the best you can get... have you guessed me yet?

Howdy Mike and welcome to the forum. Glad you hopped onboard the Carver train.

Those are beautiful speakers! Glad that they sound as good as they look.

Many of us lost post count a few months ago when Rich culled the archives.

Nicely done Perry Are ya gonna make a cool video like that too?

Many of the albums I grew up with fall into the "great music, $uck a$$ sound" category. For instance, the untiled Blue Oyster Cult and Wishbone Ash albums sound great on AM radio. But I find the albums difficult to listen to and the CD releases weren't much better.

While some of that "crud" was probably tar and nicotine, most was just the vinyl "bleeding". (The wash water turns brown when cleaning brand new just out of the shrink wrap albums.)

My first music purchases were 45's that I bought in the mid 60's with money from a paper route. All of them are long gone and I honestly don't remember any of the titles. Around 1967 my parents won this ElectroPhonic combo unit as a door prize at a church function. They had something similar in the living room so it wound up in my bedroom (shared with 2 brothers). Not long after we got it I made my first trip to the local head shop/music store and bought 5 albums: The Doors - The Doors Frank Zappa's Freak Out Pink Floyd's Piper At The Gates Of Dawn The Moody Blues' Days Of Future Passed Iron Butterfly's in-a-godda-da-vida I still have all 5 LPs even though they are unlistenable and have been replaced at least once.

1. No one does MKII upgrades to M-1.5(t)s or any of the pro amps. 2. If you DID MKII an M-1.5(t) the result would be a PM-1.5/1200. The PT2400 is a MONSTER. I use one in my PA rack to drive 4 subs. (The other amps are PM-1200s, 2 for the mains and 1 for stage monitors.)

Howdy Bucky! Glad you found your way back to the Carver Site. Why don't you tell us something about your taste in music and listening habits? What type of cabinet are you building and which driver are you going to install? WIll it run in mono or stereo? Does it have a dual voice coils? As for amps I agree with your buddy, Carver Pro is the way to go. (As long as cosmetics and cooling fan noise is not a big issue for you.) The PM-1.5 and it's identical twin (the PM-1200) are pretty good choices Both are based on the M-1.5 with balanced inputs and beefier output devices. If you are looking for more power check out the PT1800 and PT2400.

I got a good chuckle of of this

Nice work Dan. Hope they last another generation.

The Abyss AB-1266 headphones cost $5,495. They look cool but are they worth it?

Depends on my mood. Here are a few of my favs in alphabetical order: AC/DC Highway To Hell Golden Earring Radar Love Led Zepellin Immigrant Song Little Feat Day At The Dog Races Motorhead Ace Of Spades Van Halen Panama ZZ Top Jesus Just Left Chicago
