It will cost about $200 plus shipping for a complete overhaul of the amp. It may be worth it. This is the amp that Bob Carver designed to mimick the sound of a much more expensive Conrad-Johnson amplifier. He had quite a big dispute with the Stereophile magazine about 20+ years ago when he challenged the magazine that he could make his amplifiers sound like any overpriced amplifier recommended by Stereophile in less than a couple of hours. The case finally ended up in courts. As a result, you did not see any Carver ads or reviews in the Stereophile magzine. The bad blood may have carried over to Carver's new company, Sunfire.
