Wondering where I could get a Carver amp serviced. I bought a used one that
sounds good, but want to have checked out. Anyone have any experience or recommendations
for service on Carver amps? Thanks.

    Personally I suggest Vintage Hi-Fi unless your on the west coast. I sent my M1.0t to them (its still there being repaired) and really liked them when I talked to em on the phone. They are good guys that just love the Carver gear :smile:. They will treat ya right!
