Hi Everyone, just joined but have been Carver fam for 30 years. I used a 1.5 as amp in my radio production studio for about 25 years (which was a little overkill!) till it started going bad and they put some crappy 75watt crown amp in which died in a few years. I also have a TX2 tuner I have had for about 20 years and a year ago picked up a 732 receiver which is in the shop as it had a power supply issue so looking forward to using.

Do you still have the M-1.5? If so, there are folks here that can possibly help you get it going again.

Welcome!

Thanks Rob, looking forward to getting the 732 back from shop in a couple weeks. I found a great honest, capable reasonably priced tech here. He just resurrected a Sony PCM 2600 DAT deck for me and he is looking forward to working on the Carver. I almost got a 1700 Cassette deck last year but was outbid in the end, so thats still on a wish list.

No I do not have, it was owned by the radio station. I don't know what happened to it, I hope they didn't throw it out I would have taken and repaired it. It only broke once in 25 years and the engineer showed me the crazy power rail when he repaired it.

Welcome, @mdb007  You'll like the 732. I have one, it's been in and out of my garage system a few times.

 

Keep your eyes on the prize..., that 1.5 you remember, could be your next OCCD target.  

 

OCCD - It's a "journey" not a destination.

Yeah I wouldn't mine having one for my collection. I think I recall reading a story on a pro sound magazine Springsteen using stacks of those PM-1.5's on one of his late 80s tours. It was a bullet proof amp.
