Parasound three channel amp. No affiliation. https://charlotte.craigslist.org/ele/5742173843.html
I saw that and wondered why? I mean do you really need that much power for a third channel. I'm thinking center by the way. Or is it used for something else?HT/2Channel: Emotiva MMC-1, Adcom GFA-555II, Polk SDA 3.1's, Teac TN-300 TT, Polk Center and Sub.

Depends on the size and requirements of a center channel. Many are 4 ohm, needing that much power. Even so, the additional current helps with centers to clarify dialogue. Center channels do a lot of the lifting in a surround sound setup.
For the price though, you can get a 5 channel amp.HT SYSTEM-

a few things to check 1 play some piano through them and take a listen for buzzing on the ribbons 2 take the covers off and see if the woofers have any foam rot.
Remember there is not a ton of support for the ribbons anymore. I think there is only 1-2 people that deal with them.
at 500$ that is a fantastic deal!!!!!
I had the original amazings that were hard to drive but sounded wonderful.

L2V - those look NICE and are an even nicer price. However, that mini leopard in the background is eyeing them up as scratching posts... Act fast before they are shredded LOL!

I could fit the Carver Amazings in my living room. But it is only 12'x 12'. Do they need a big room? Thanks.

Worse than that.... there is NO REPAIR MATERIAL AVAILABLE. So beyond only one person repairing them in the entire US, he's been out of the repair material for over a year now...
As much as I'd love to own a pair (think they are awesome), I'd avoid em like the plauge due to the fact you'd need to track down replacement ribbons and have a stock pile to be safe.I could fit the Carver Amazings in my living room. But it is only 12'x 12'. Do they need a big room? Thanks. D

SVS is having a Labor Day sale in their outlet store. Some nice deals...

I don't know if these are a good deal or not, but seems like a relatively rare purchase opportunity. The silvers are referenced above for a tiny bit less. There are several threads on here about how hard it is to repair these if there is a problem, so caveat emptor...

This is a pretty solid deal on maybe the best EL-34 / 6Ca7 modern tubes you can buy today. They usually run $249 a quad for reference. Highly recommended here and other places, I have a quad in the Dodd and they are my favs so far even including some very nice NOS tubes.

Those Dodd Monos have been on eBay as low as $2500, you could probably talk them down a bit from the CL price.
edit - still are I guess!
