MORE CARVER'S PLEASE 99 Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Hey all, just wanted to say hey... I've been a long time Carver fan.... 90% of all my speakers a driven with Caver power . I've been into audio for over 25 years and love playing with my gear. I remember the 1st time I herd /saw a Caver amp....a friend of mine got a new stereo, walked in his house a saw four Klipsch Chorus speakers and theses two little silver cubes he was using to power them....I was thinking those little things are going to power those big speaker....hmmm....So he told me all about the speakers and amps....He powers them up with good tunes and puts all of the 201 watts into those four Klipsch......OH MY GOD The sound blew me away....I never herd a system like that. I not only herd the music but I felt it....That sound has always stuck with me. I knew one day I would own Klipsch speakers and Carver amps....at the time I just didn't know how many lol lol.... Music is a big part of me and my wife's life...we love play our tunes....at the house I have my wall-O-Klipsch speakers driven with all my Carver amps....from 400t's to TFM-55x's...I will have Silver Seven's one day... At my auto shop where I work with my wife, we have a TFM-42 driving a set of Klipsch KP362's (Klipsch Pro speakers) that set-up rocks the house(shop)...next to my shop there is a used car lot...in the summer the guys will be out front washing cars and they will say "hey turn turn up the tunes"...so I'll get those lights on the Carver jumping up to that 375 watt mark....oh yea..we be jamming.... OK guys...again just wanted to say hey..take care all MCP

Blues Pwr 766 Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Welcome to the site. Glad you decided to join in on the fun. My introduction to Carver was my buddies new system, which was a Carver M1.0t and a set of Klipsch KG-4's and a Yamaha YP-B2 turntable, talk about system synergy, very nice.

MORE CARVER'S PLEASE 99 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Posted June 7, 2015 Welcome! What kind of music do you turn up around there then? The only music I'm not really into is country and hard rap....but I will put on some old Johnny Cash now and then....I'll also spin up some M&M.....the rap I like has to mean something and have a good beat. Some that gets alot of play time would be: Stones, Floyd, Metallica, old AC/DC, Madonna, Sade, Seal, Foreigner, Rob Zombie, Rush, old Judas Priest, Anita Baker, James Taylor, B-52's even Lady GaGa....this list would keep going....but when I'm at the shop working on one of my project late into the night the Crystal Method will be jamming in the shop... I was in a club in D.C. last year checking out the Crystal Method good show and I got a chance to meet the guys after the show...cool guys.. took a few min to chat with me and the wife and got our pic's taken with them. So yea I like all types of music, I'll even put on some classical now and then MCP :-) 1

Enjoy:-) I don't have any RF-7's "yet"....but it is on the to get list... Also the M500t has not made it in the house "yet"...I like the looks of that amp and all the mods that can be done to it....Been thinking about getting one to pair up with my Klipsch LaScala's....right now the LaScala's are powered by one of my Adcom 555 II amps....good sound but just wanting to try something else....like that M500t...oh yea But what I really need to do is stop buying new/old gear....but up-grade some of the stuff I have...like the crossovers in all my speakers and I have one non-working TFM-55.....yea that's what I should do.. MCP :-)
soulofsound 40 Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Welcome to the forum MCP think you are going to feel right at home here. ROCK ON!
xavionics 2,069 Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 ...but up-grade some of the stuff I have...like the crossovers in all my speakers... There's a guy down in Arkansas, Mr Crites, that can help you do some magical things with the Klipsch's. BTW, been running Carver/Klipsch for over 25 years. A great combo...
