Ct12 8 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Hi, Im new to this site. From norcal area. Loved carver gear since they came out in early 90’s. Im a tube head and recently (6 months ago) got a carver sd/a 490t as a Cdp on my system. Looking forward to recapping this unit. The unit already sounds awesome as it is.. but ...the love to see what lies ahead if i do a recap is a worthy journey... 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
