Bob Carver made his name by duplicating the audio qualities of high end amps in equipment that would sell for a fraction of the cost. He had offered a challenged 2 well known audio magazines: Give me an amp and I'll duplicate it's sound without cracking the cover. He successfully duplicated $12,000 amplifiers with equipment he would eventually sell for $600-$1200 and passed blind listening tests by both magazines.

Shocked!
I punched “Carver Audio” Just out of curiosity. 15/20 yr’s ago I used Carver Amps & more because they are/were,the best.No Ads,Info etc.
I had thought they were out of business.My day just got a little better!!!!
They are out of business. This site is a tribute. I’m trying to get all the specs and pics I can find and make them searchable.
Nice site. Well thought out. I notice you have no info on the M-500t !
I’m still working on this day by day. I’m pretty sure I have that and I’ll take it as a request.

Hi
I’m writing an article on a big show staged recently in Saudi Arabia and the sound rental company’s gear list includes Carver P42O amps…. I queried the model and they say that they are old amps, but NOT PM-420…. was there ever a P420 power amp by Carver?
I just purchased a used PM 1.5 and it is different then the usual models available. It has two extra knobs for “RMS Output Voltage”. Have you ever seen one of these amps and do you have any information on this different model?
I have a carver A400-x amp.It turns on but has no output.I can here switch on and a green power light turns on.Do I have to use a carver preamp.How can iI get a manual.By the way this is a greatsite.

I have just purchased a C9 sonic holography unit to go with my mxr130 does anyone have the rack handles that go with it for sale
I have a church in my area that I’m doing a sound system upgrade for, and they have what I believe is one of your Model WM-200t power amplifiers driving the main speakers. I couldn’t find any owner’s manual for it on your website. It may be an older model and discontinued, so I was wondering if you might have a manual for this power amp, in pdf format, that you could send to me, so that I can determine if it still can be used in the new system? The church doesn’t seem to be able to find the original owner’s manual for the amp. Thank you very much for your time and help with this matter.
