ALLENWERK 41 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hi everyone! Hoping to connect and learn from all of you! I am a Bob Carver fan, love the design and audio experience his equipment provides. I am enjoying listening to, as well as refurbishing, the following equipment - Carver C-1 Preamp Carver C-2 Preamp Carver TX-2 Tuner Carver TL-3200 CD Player Carver M1.5T Amp Phase Linear 4000 Preamp Phase Linear 400 Amp Phase Linear 700B Amp Everything is needing service/repair, and I'm hoping to get some guidance from the experts here in the forums. Cheers! -Greg 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenith4me 1,378 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hello Greg and welcome. You'll fit in well here with the gear you have. I live in the Mill Creek area and there is another Carver member also in this neck of the woods. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadvw 2,800 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Welcome Greg! Nice collection of gear you have there! If you are going to keep I suggest refurbing it to make it last another 20-30 years and sound great! There are good techs to help if you need it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian_at_HHH 2,607 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Welcome to the group! Very nice collection of gear, there. If you are electronically talented, unlike myself, you'll find plenty of guidance to help you refresh it all here. If you soldering inept, like I am, there are also lots of folks here who can do it with the upmost professionalism, and leave you wondering how all that amazing sound had been hidden in there for so long. Good luck with it, either (or both) way(s)! In the mean time, join in the fun and enjoy the music! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
