I like that kind of recruitment...keep it up guys. Pretty soon there won't be anything we can't find, fix or fab....

 

[Rex Everything]

Yes it tis.

Cool......shoot me an email or pm sometime with your ideas.



Is that XO still around? Still liking my Chirstmas wounds but who knows after tax time

The SF-850 is gone. I got this 700 from St. Paul along with a 400, and a 2000 for 275.00 local pickup only, my sis shipped em so I have 400 in all 3 units. Now there was a bargain.

I'm callin BuLLSHIT on the 1st one. STOCK they'll do 450!!!!!! And the 2SD555's are a trainwreck waiting to happen AND no TO-3 swapout bumps the output 100watts!!!!!!!!! DOuBLE BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[laatsch55]

If the power figure is to be believed that amp WAS BRIDGED!!!!

 

[Phase Linear Phanatic]

Agree 100% Lee. I seriously DOUBT Carver would support that kind of Mod.........

Agree Lee. Rule #2, something about Japanese transistors

Those figures are worthless. 2,000 WPC INTO WHAT< WITH WHAT???? Maybe into 2 ohms, 1 channel drioven, mor likely 1 ohm, right beforeblowup. THE VOLTAGE SWING ALLOWED BY THE 2SD555's ARE NOWHERE NEAR PROVIDNG that kinda output!!!!



So, the question remains, who's gonna blow this guy outta the water??

Does that mean it's balls are showing?

 

[laatsch55]

And possibly fixin to blow.....Stock transformer, stock voltage on rails.... I gotta put a question into that guy...

 

[laatsch55]

Question on output claims sent to lister.

[TD]Dear laatsch55,

I did not do the mods myself. I am not trying to mislead anyone on this, but am on the advice of another tech and one who has done a lot of work on these and who I trust to know what he is doing. I bow to your expertise on this as well.
