Gadg8man 12 Posted April 10 Posted April 10 After almost 25 years of not buying any home audio gear, I have jumped in with both feet. Just purchased a new to me, Carver M500T amp and C2 Preamplifier. They arrived yesterday, Going to swap out the old Denon AVR later today. Im running a great pair of B&W 686 but I plan to get more substantial speakers soon. Looking forward to the forum.

xavionics 1,957 Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Welcome to the Carver site Chris! This is, indeed, “the place to be” for all things Carver (and more!). Thats a great combination of Carver gear - the m500t is a long-time site favorite. The c-2, while not as feature rich as the c-1 is a very capable preamp. If you are spinning vinyl (or have plans to dive into that pool too), the c-2 has a unique feature that allows for customizing cartridge resistive loading. Feel free to wander around. It a short time you will be able to add pics to your posts. We all love pics of all things audio. 1

Sk1Bum 10,873 Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Hi Chris and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. The M500t is my favorite Carver amp, and it's high on most Carver fan's list too. Once you get to Novice status, consider uploading some pics of your gear in the Members Systems area. We all like pics of all kinds of stereo and hot theater gear. 1
3M_Audio 1,770 Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Welcome! Those 686's are nice speakers for a smaller space. The C2 & M500T should really make them perform. 1
