Hello Carver people,
I have enjoyed reading all your post for a while even though some of it is over my head. I aspire to accumulating alittle of your expertise as time goes on.
I have several Carver pieces that I rotate in and out of use and I have some I would love to get working to their full potential

Thank you all for your invaluable insights and advice and your dedication to keeping these great contributions to Audio alive n well.

Re: New member

Thanks guys for the welcome :)

No I never/ am not running the TFM's as Mono's...

At the time I got them, I was running the DQ-10, but only on one.
Since then, I have actually sold one...and am probably going to sell the other one to a friend,
cuz he needs one 'more than me' right now.

Right now I am using my B&K and my MKIII's
