sunfire classic vacuum tube preamp

Actually he closed it and gave all the equipment to Bill Flannery, a former tech at Sunfire. From his site "As they say, all good things must come to an end eventually. In August of 2011, after several years of successful business, Rita's Vintage Audio was closed.

This was one of the saddest days of my life, but as it turns out, there was a silver lining to this cloud. Bob was willing to GIVE me all the equipment I needed to start my own shop!!! His only request was that I continue to provide quality service to all those loyal customers who needed to have their vintage Sunfire equipment repaired. I heartily agreed and the rest is history. I am now the proud owner of Flannery's Vintage Audio. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need help."

Stringreen,
The shop you're referring to carveraudiorepair.com isn't owned by Carver and has nothing to do with any of the affiliation. They sound more like scammers. 

@czarivey

That shop you mentioned is owned or operated by a guy named Roland. They are the service center Bob Carver recommends for original Carver Corp. equipment.

I’m not sure why you’d say they are scammers. They have a good reputation for repair and modding the 1.5’s..

  I ended up buying a musica bella lusso dual mono preamp that uses 6922 tubes from Bill at response audio.  Can't wait to hear it and I will let you guys know how it sounds when I get it if you are interested, thanks Bill

Yes, please let us know your take on its sound quality.
