Carver M500t Power Amplifier Upgraded. Fully functioning. This is a very powerful and dynamic amplifier. It is rated at 251 watts per channel continuous at 8 ohms . See photo with full specs. This unit is in great shape. It has been in a nonsmoking home for 4 years. I am downsizing to an all in one AVR. Upgraded with black face, LED lights, switch cover, handles, Gold plated 8 way binding posts, gold plated RCA inputs, Power supply completely recapped. I am including a copy of both the owners and service manual. This is a vintage upgraded unit it is guaranteed not to be dead on arrival, beyond that there is no warranty.

Excellent Sounding with plenty of power rated @ 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Unit has been cleaned and fully tested. All functions work as they should. Inside has been cleaned with air for loose dust removal. Missing handles. THX level controls have been cleaned with Deoxit as well as inputs. Please see pictures for more details. Demo video available upon request.

Here we have one of the most beautiful and sought after Carver amplifiers, the M500t. Yes you saw in Ferris Bueller‘s Day off with the recognizable twin VU needles dancing. This one is fresh back from having an overall health check and completely recapped using high quality capacitors from Nichicon, TDK, and Nippon. The power supply capacitors have the increased value type so if you want to upgrade to the MK2, this has already been done All adjustments made per the repair manual and specifications verified on load tests at 4&8 ohms. It’s a beast that runs pretty cool during the most demanding music sessions. Condition is very nice with some scratches on top most likely from component stacking. From the front view it looks great! If you do a little research on Bob Carver you’ll find that he is a genius electrical engineer who went against the status quo building high-performance amplifiers that were affordable and extremely reliable. As with all vintage electronics I cannot offer any warranty but can assure you that it will arrive safe and sound and have fully evaluated it before shipment to be fully operational. Good luck!

Clean unit. Powers up fine and sounds like it wants to work. Likely needs a new belt. Fairly easy from what I have read online on tapeheads. Will ship FedEx within one business day of payment.

These are increasing getting harder and harder to find. These are high quality Cornell Dubilier capacitors with these adapter plates for trouble free installation and long life reliability. I plan on offering the higher value 10000uF/100V capacitors soon. I can also sell just plates if you already have your own capacitors, so please do not hesitate to ask!

Here I am offering the higher value 10000uF/100V capacitors for your vintage Carver amp. I can also sell just plates if you already have your own capacitors, so please do not hesitate to ask! Listing is for a pair of capacitors.

Tested and working nice and sounds great. Plug has been replaced but otherwise original from my view. Clean inside and solid lights and meters. If they keep the video it was Jerry’s last visit to Deer Creek and one of his last shows. A great listen. $25 shipping and only for shipping for the U.S. Reach out with questions and thanks.

Carver M-500 Magnetic Field Power Amplifier. (this amp does NOT have the T designation after the model number) This amp has been my backup amp since 2016, when purchased it refurbished from Rolland from Hi-Tech Audio LTD. It works perfectly and sounds great! It has been used very little since then, and so I am selling it so someone else can enjoy it. In addition to the photos above, a video of it in operation can be seen and listened to at: https://youtu.be/dgtog2V7PTo. Video was made with an Android phone, so audio is not quite Audiophile quality idue to the built-in microphone and my amateur recording technique, but if you listen to it on bookshelf or larger speakers, you can get a sense of the power and frequency range this amp can generate... Ive never had it register more than 60% of the sweep range on the VU meters (too loud for my ears). The top portion of the case was painted with a textured gray paint which I dont believe is original and not applied with great expertise (texture is uneven). At one point I had another piece of equipment sitting on top, and there are slight wear marks from the feet of that item on the top of the amplifier case. Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHzTotal harmonic distortion: 0.05%Damping factor: 30Input sensitivity: 1.4VSignal to noise ratio: 100dBSpeaker load impedance: 4? (minimum)Dimensions: 440 x 110 x 348mmWeight: 10.5kg
