Carver Raven 350 Amps

Has anyone heard these amps?
They supposedly can produce 350 watts per channel which in my opinion is remarkable for a tube amp. I have the Atma-Sphere M-60’s 3.3 and I love their tube sound.

But I am curious, Bob has made some very interesting products through the years.

To those that own these amps, I just installed a couple of the SR Blue fuses in them and it really adds to the smoothness of the soundstage.
Highly recommended.

erichgs,

No I just exchanged the 1A fuse with the SR 1.6A Blue in slow blow.

Did you try the different orientations for the fuse?  SR states it is directional, but both fuses in the Carver amp are AC (verified with Jordan), so orientation of the fuse isn't necessarily "easy".

No, I just put them in with the writing on the fuse going from front to back.
Sounded real good so I left them in that direction.
