It was more than subtle. It was a big difference. I thought I had my Carver fixed up where it was a great amp. Boy was I wrong. I’m just sorry I waited all these years to upgrade.

I agree. I will also add that true monoblock amps have better left and right channel separation plus lower IMD and the ability to keep the speaker cables very, very short like 12’’, plus each monoblock amp can have it’s own AC dedicated circuit. Lastly, the mono blocks do not take up any real estate in my listen room as I have each monoblock amp under each speaker and one behind each speaker. My speaker are actively bi-amped with 4 monoblock amps. I discover the sound quality benefits of true monoblock amps in 1977 when I purchase two new Luxman B-12 monoblock amps. 😎

Why were @thyname ’s posts removed?

@arafiq : I only had one post here in this thread, which was removed. Not sure why. Some of the usual characters must have reported it.

I’m surprised. There was nothing offensive mentioned in that post. 

I now own the Carver M350 tube mono blocks and have been impressed with them. Prior to the Carvers I owned Pass Labs, Atma-Sphere, and Krell.
