@ozzy . Back in the 80's I went to audition the Carver Amazing loudspeakers which were heavily promoted. The salon had a carver system w/ a preamp with holographic imaging. Long story short...it was awful. My son and I were both shocked that a high end stereo store would play something so awful and talk about how good it sounded. Maybe the speakers were good...I don't know. But whenever I think of Carver, I remember the holographic imaging and how bad it sounded. Still I d love to hear the 275 in my system
Carver 275 Crimson tube amp --- any feedback appreciated
I have a Platinum modified McCormack DNA .05 and a Pass Labs First Watt F5 with which I drive my Spatial Audio Hologram M4 Triode Master speakers. I have sworn off tube amps in the past, but I am intrigued with this new amp from Bob Carver. Wally Underwood as well as Jimclarkstereo in Illinois are now selling them for about $2500. I have never doubted Bob Carver's audio engineering genius. I would be keen to get a 75 wpc tube amp and the price seems very reasonable compared to similarly-powered tube amps.
I would be interested to hear what you lads think of this new amp. Thanks for any input you can provide.
