From my own personal collection......

A Carver m1.5t solid state amplifier. Conservatively rated at 350wpc. Bob Carver built this amp to be indistinguishable in sound from the Mark Levinson ML-2 amps.

It has been recently serviced and given a clean bill of health. Cosmetically is in excellent shape, no significant flaws that I can see. I do not have the original box but I will pack to withstand an atomic blast and include a copy of the owners manual and a review from 'The Audio Critic' that outlines how Bob Carver made the m1.5t sound just like the ML-2. Here is your chance to own a Bob Carver classic.

Asking price is 325 plus shipping.

If you are interested email me at: troy.dion@charleston.af.mil. I don't happen to have any pictures at the moment but if need be, I can probably round some up next week

    However, don't hold it on my account. I'm interested, but I may need an extra payday to scrounge up the funds.

    I have one of these gems powering my SRS 2.3's.

    Snatch it up people! It's a great amp with plenty of juice!

    Troy, Troy, Troy... I know it'll be tough packing up the little fella...

    Great deal here folks... near mint with manuals go for $400 to 450 on ebay. The big fella must be feeling a little guilty over his TFM-45 good fortune. Grab it before he comes to his senses...

    I'll PROBABLY regret it.....but the amp is sold.

    I think the price was fair, I would have liked to charge less but I paid almost as much having it serviced as I did for the amp itself.

    Great amp, going to miss it but I wouldn't be able to really put it to good use and hopefully it's new owner will really enjoy a really fine amp.
