S2000TrakJnky 9 Posted May 22 Posted May 22 Greetings, I joined a few weeks ago when I recognized that this is a great resource to all things Carver. I friend from High School gave me a TFM-45 she was clearing out of her garage that she no longer uses. She is was a tech long ago and this was her personal amp. Shortly after hooking up the amp, I wanted to source a Carver preamp to drive it with. My Harmon Kardon Citation 17 did not seem to drive the TFM-45 as much as I know it should. So after a reasonable search, I found that the C-1 looked to be a good fit for the features I needed it a preamp. So down the rabbit hole I go. It sound great. Drive the JBL L150s very well. I found a Carver SD/A-360 CD player that was being sold to parts cheap, and I know enough to be willing to open it up and see what I can find. Turns out one of the belts turned into a puddle of black goo. That is all clean up, now to find a replacement belt. So my question is, does anyone know the belt sizes of both of the belt? The service manual only listed a carver part number. Not the size. 8

Dennis47 1,024 Posted May 22 Posted May 22 WELCOME @S2000TrakJnky! Congrats on your newly acquired Carver gear.
Community Admin AndrewJohn 11,103 Posted May 22 Community Admin Posted May 22 The belt size table is also located in the Manuals Library under the CD Player section (Manuals Library is the menu click at the top...) There are several threads on 360 and 390 CD player repairs on TCS - check them out in the Forum for Sources, or use Search. Enjoy - glad you found us.
S2000TrakJnky 9 Posted 16 hours ago Author Posted 16 hours ago On the service manual topic. I purchased the service manual for the SD/A-360 and there is not one in the library. How can I add my copy to the library? 1

One of the Admins will take it and add it to the collection. Thanks for offering it up!
BobTFM35 3,136 Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago I have downloaded the 360 SM from our site several times in the past. From this post in 2025 you can see the listing. 1
