    Ok, the showdown wasn't a show down at all. The Carver whooped **** in every thing I threw at it. The Denon sounds good but it doesnt stand a chance against the tfm-35. I dont think the monitor 10's have ever had that much power thrown at them, it was kinda frightening as to who was gonna give. The Carver whooped ****, predicted by you gurus which is no surprise. In fact there is really no comparing the two amps considering the music I use. I mean you are standing there with a glass of Talisker scotch getting all smug thiniking you are an audiophile and the Carver reaches up and punches you in the chest and reminds you who is boss. My test sources were Supertramp and Dire Straights ...... masters.
    BTW, I like profanity so please feeling F!@#ing free to use f!@#$ing profanity in any F!@#$ing thread in which I am the F!@#$ing author!

    Peace. Thanks ...............

    Denon POA and Monitor 7C's going up for sale. PM me if interested.

    Hehe
    I love the TFM-35 , i have one hooked up to my Computer with a CT-17 :p .
    I would choose the TFM - 35 over a Denon Amp . Anyhow , my TFM is a backup for my Bryston 4b :) . Which i have hooked up to some Polk 2bs :) . The TFM-35 can hold its own with the 2b's also .

    Agreed,and that is the goal of companies like Levinson ,Bryston and Pass Labs etc,to produce amplifiers that alter the signal as little as possible.However each have a different recipe for trying to achieve this accurasy thus each will have their own sonic signature.
    Agreed
    My 4b vs the TFM-35 , is different sound . Both are good .

    Do the Carvers, and the newer Sunfires have the same sound signature?
    No....

    I just received a TFM-35x today from the fed-ex express.....very nice amp.
    Watched a couple of movies today with it pulling front channel duty , will try it in a 2 channel setup tomorrow.

    I can see why these are so popular....
