Bob Carver tube amps


Hello, looking for Carver amp info the read out there is a little sketchy. Is that place still in business? And who is actually making the amps? Do the have a factory in the Pacific Northwest….I live in the Pacific Northwest so I could drive there if I had a problem.

I need a tube amp for my Klipsch speakers, you tube heads out there is this the brand I should buy or is there a better option?

I can still remember in the 70s when my father in law went to the factory and grabbed me a Phase Linear amp and preamp off the factory floor..I had more problems with that thing, once and a while it made a super load pop when you turned it on..

My Black Magic arrived earlier this month. Put it on my kef blade 2. These are not easy to drive (properly). Dug it so much I listed & sold my Sanders Magtech to pay for a 2nd amp. Which arrived 2 days ago. Zero regrets. 

Ergo: Black Magic running mono. See my system page. 

Ergo: ask ACTUAL OWNERS like me what they're like, their service, and oh yeah: they sound killer. happy to chat @silverfoxvtx1800 

 

 

I have followed Bob Carver over his career. Sometimes there are guys that think outside of the box and try different approaches to things. That is Bob. But I would never buy a Carver product… short attention span and poor at execution.

I think that's a very fair summation, @ghdprentice. Bob has been around a long time and designed some interesting products, but the lifespan of his companies and products in remarkably short. It's hard to take anything he might be selling now seriously.
