runninshine Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I just bought a carver amp CM-1090 for $200 and I have to say its very nice. I put new Uv lamps in it and blew out all the dust and crap from over the years. A little tlc, and paired it with Cornwalls.......its very loud and clear. ( I think the neighbors are pissed) This is the second Carver piece I have and love it so far. I am now trying to pair it with the Carver C-19 pre amp with tubes. Any Carver fans here?

Daddy Dee Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Congrats on the amp. and of course, condolences to your neighbors. I'm not familiar with the C-19, but am a fan of the Sunfire Classic Tube Preamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardsweb Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Over the years I have moved from a Carver m1.5t --> TFM-15 --> TFM-35 --> A500x --> A760x --> Silver 7t monoblocks. I have always felt the larger Carver amps were under appreciated. They have high current capability and can drive loads down to 1 ohm for some models. I still have the Silver 7t's but not presently in a system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
