CAH — Wed, 15 May 2024 16:28:34 +0000

Sometimes, it’s just damn cathartic to openly vent. When you’ve spent 5 years flogging a dead horse there comes a point where you just have to down tools, quit and start over.

CAH — Fri, 03 Nov 2023 17:16:27 +0000

I bought the Bob Carver Crimson 75 at an estate sale along with several other pieces of audio equipment from a seller in Maryland. I wasn’t able to test the amp as the fuses had been pulled and the screw cap fuse holders were missing. One generally doesn’t pull fuses from an amp unless there’s […]
