Hello from Canada.
« on: January 21, 2010, 06:08:33 PM »
Hi Guy's, Brian here.

I met Tom & Tom at Carverfest 09, and had a blast with them. So much we are sharing
a cabin this year.
I live in Ottawa, Canada. (the great white north)
I work as a technician on food cooking equipment, own my company. A dumb import has 4 Canadians working for him.

I enjoy my 2 channel stereo, only got back into it in the last 18 months. boy what a costly mistake that was (more on that later)
My main setup is based on Bob Carver products, I purchased a C1 Preamp & M1.5t amp in 1986 and loved the sound. Only sold them
in the last 16 months, to purchase other Bob Caver products.

More to come, Brian

Brian,

You still need to post a few pics of your Bob Carver Tube amps on the site.  Plus someone else on the forum wants to see a good pic of your Sufire Tube preamp with Bob's signature.
