byroc 7 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I'm new here, so.. + 70, retired and a life long lover of sound reproducing equipment. Currently own and use four M 1.5t s, one M 1.0t, one M 4.0t, four C-11, two C-16, One Sunfire TG II ( ? ), one SD/A 490t, one Tascam CD-RW901 MKII, one TDR 2400, one Akai 635D one Thorens TD165 turntable, all outputting into 7 pairs of Speakers , mainlyy Pioneer, Polk, and Sony. Beyond this there are several non used and/or non functioning amps and preamps. I am thoroughly impressed by Carver's design elegance and the impeccable reproduction that is so characteristic of his equipment. My goal is to learn so as to maintain and if necessary, reair the pieces that I have and enjoy so greatly. byroc 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xavionics 1,072 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Welcome aboard! I see you arrived already fully infected with OCCD (Obsessive Carver Collecting Disorder). Nice collection so far…😁 As for parts searches, you just gotta be persistent. There are shortages and some items are end of life. Good luck with your endeavors!
