Carver Raven 350 Amps

Has anyone heard these amps?
They supposedly can produce 350 watts per channel which in my opinion is remarkable for a tube amp. I have the Atma-Sphere M-60’s 3.3 and I love their tube sound.

But I am curious, Bob has made some very interesting products through the years.

A little late to the party, but I want to add that I am currently using a pair of the4 Raven 350s to power Sound Lab A1-PX panels with tremendous results.   I have tried almost everything to power these beasts (Pass Labs 250.8 and 350.5, Veritas Monoblocks, Conrad Johnson LP125M, McIntosh 2300, Classé, Parasound, etc....) and the Carvers are the best.  Very natural. Not dark at all in my opinion.  Come listen if you are in Las Vegas.

Simpleman68,
Read your post on the Bob Carver 350's and you mentioned the Wavelet (with Legacy Aeris) has a hard time with many tube amps. I have the original 305's and was going to buy the Legacy Aeris and Wavelet until I read your post. Can you give me any more info why the Wavelet is not good with tube amps. Thanks!
