Is Bob Carver Still in Business?

Thanks for the help.

As I understand, Frank Malitz is no longer with Carver. I have tried several numbers listed on the internet for Jim with no response. Not sure if the number skids suggested is one of them, but I'll give it a shot.

Wonder why though, none of the contact info on the Bob Carver website is useful?

Here's a current ad:

I have seen the ad, that’s why I think it is so strange not to be able contact anyone. I just sent an email in response to the ad on AudioMart to Jim Clark. Let's see if he responds to that.

A couple of years back Bob Carver actually stayed at my home while we listened to his "Line Source" speakers. He looked a little feeble, but his mind and humor were still ok. I hope he is alright.

Alas, since the pandemic it does seem that connecting with companies in general is difficult.

So, here is what I just sent to Jim Clark.

"So, my question has been on the 350 mono blocks. In one part of the ad the DC restorer tube is listed as 6AL5 and in another section as a 6AT7 tube in the same position. I need to replace mine so, I am not sure which to use. Are they substitutes?

There has been no answer from the Carver website, phone numbers, or by you for several weeks until now when I responded to your recent ad on AudioMart."

Not a lot of confidence.

I did get a response from Jim Clark, he said the 6AL5 is the correct tube to use in that location. Someone needs to correct the Bob Carver website.

Or am I the only one who noticed the discrepancy?
