700b!!!

[laatsch55]

Good. Kinda like me and a 3300.... this 3600 I can probably do in a day, and if I have some walk away from the 700 time I'll get er done.

I'm pretty stoked Lee. At least I won't have to run Y adapters off the back of the CT24. The C1 has seperate outputs for multiple amps. Frank says he can do these in his sleep and turnaround will be less then a week. I can honestly say that the CT24 is pretty damn quiet, I never hear a hiss or anything but with only a single set of outputs, it's time for the C1 to get in the game

Hell yeah!! That will be quick! And you will be rocking restored lol

Awesome Jason!!!! I am sending the Carver C1 out today for Frank Hawk to work his magic. Complete recap and BillD mod. Going to cost me some records but that's a small price to pay for a World Class preamp when done. Then my CT24 can finally be traded/sold to someone looking for a preamp and tuner combined. It's actually an excellent unit, the tuner is just a bonus perk if someone still listens to the radio

Hey North, I'm interested as I have one C-1 and C-4000 too that may benefit from Mr. Hawk's magic. How may I contact him?

Thanks!

[Skynyrd77]

Heres the innyrds !! Seems to work as is but the right channel is scratchy!!

[laatsch55]

Looks damn good..

Did you check your rail fuses?

 

[Skynyrd77]

Did you check your rail fuses?

Just did. 1 was loose in holder . None blown. I checked the speaker outputs with my meter before I hooked up my little speaks. I got 9.5mv on the pos to pos and 0 on the neg to neg. does that sound right or is my meter set wrong? I'm really a newbie at this shit!!

 

[laatsch55]

Positive and negative of the SAME CHANNEL....

 

[laatsch55]

Your meter is set right Jase...

Step 1 on the road to being a tech!!

 

[Skynyrd77]

Alright I'm getting ready to hook this bitch up to main system . Do I want to crank the pl volume all the way up like on yours lee or what. I'll be using the 939 as the pre??

Step 1 on the road to being a tech!!

That's how I started, measuring DC offset..

 

[laatsch55]

You have no DC Protect, 40 year old outputs and a topology that CAN and PROBABLY WILL latch up to the negative rail eventually. YOU ARE NOT MESSING WITH SOMETHING THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER TO HAMMER ON ALL DAY LONG LIKE THE LAST 700 THAT WAS AT YOUR PLACE!!! Jase take it easy, keep it cool with a fan and run er gently until it proves it's not gonna cough up and eat your new speaks, in fact I'd keep it off the modded CV's....be careful Bud.

[Skynyrd77]

Damn got me scared now!! If I keep it very low volume does that help me at all???

 

[Northwinds]

Just take it easy Jason, I would not recommend full throttle at all until you get it WOPL'd
