Best Carver stereo solid state amplifier design

i would like to know what is the best design Bob Carver has made.Is it really considered hifi.What could we compare the sonics of his best designs to.Can we compare his stuff to mark levinson,spectral,krell.Many people are fans of him but we dont hear much about his work in hifi magazines. Does it mean its only good for home theater or what.Anyone out there can answer on the sound quality of his stuff.Any comparisons made to the big league.Thanks pat

Marakanetz so the wyred for sound might be an upgrade to the sunfire.Is your sunfire amp from the latest technologie of Bob Carver.Did you compare both.Anyone out there compare the spectron amps to sunfire amps.In the absolute sound mag,they said that the spectron was the best digital amp.Is that right.pat

All i seem to remember about Carver was his Phase linear amps. PF used a ton of them in Jax FL for their Dark Side Of the Moon show.

I was impressed. Still am.

My SRA is from late 90's early 2000. It has logic circuit that switches between the classes of amp operation so making it partially digital.
I believe that Wyred4sound is valuable and inexpensive upgrade to my current model.
