I love the list of amps going down to CF

(2) Lightstars
pair of 305's
(2) 600x2 Sunfires
Carver A-753x
Carver A-760x

Is that enough power?

I'm pretty sure there will be at least one more Lightstar, as well as a pair of original Carver Silver 9 tube amps (700 watts?), and probably at least one Carver PT-2400 (750 wpc)....

While I understand your excitement to get these back in working order....

Anders always had a rule, if you watch him work he charges double.  I'm not sure what he charges for being cheered on (nagged) lol.   :P

Rest easy, he is meticulous and takes a great deal of pride in his work.   I hope it shows :)  He is exactly the person you want working on your babies.

...Yes Mam....if he could get the meters working properly it would be greatly appreciated....Mam...
