Vintage Carver

Thanks for the replys, I have a C-2 pre amp and two M400-t I run mono into Ohm Walsh 2's.

To this day it still sounds great, however at 36 years old I am sure the caps are beyond their life. I have considered a recap but then think why if it's still performing well..

Anyone else ?

Rolland assures me that each of my freshly rebuilt amps could go toe to toe with any $2k-3k amp on the market today and these will blow them out of the water. I haven’t had the chance to actually test that theory, however, I do believe him.

You bet, just look at what their asking for old Carver gear on Ebay..

I recently had them fully recapped and serviced by Rolland @ HiTech

Are you talking about Carver audio repair ?

I am using my early 90’s Carver now retired as my second system. I have a HR742 receiver used as a preamp, two A500x amps in bridged mono, sda 490t cd with Cambridge Soundworks Tower I speakers and monster cable 90’s cables. I have done no service to these items other than cleaning and they sound great considering their age and original cost. 

Thanks.  This is helpful for those of us who look to buy used gear to save money.
