I have been very busy for the last two weeks rebuilding these units, and 4 out of 5 are gone. This is the last one. Interesting in a way. It was a 'rescue'. Bought it for cheap because it had issues. just the way I like it. So, it is an original rack ear chassis, but with the second iteration that Carver designed. What that means here is that this has the newer circuit in an original chassis. It was manufactured during the transition from one design to the other. So what you get is a sort of rare combination of the two. In the ten years that I have been doing these, I have only seen one or two of these. BTW, it will run on 120-220 VAC just by switching it internally.
So what I did was replace all electrolytic capacitors, and one ceramic cap, adjust the DC voltage down from 15.3V to 12.4VDC. Keep everything else the same except that I had to reattach the faceplate to the chassis, and lucky for me, the surgery went very well as you can see the new bolts but they don't look out of place. They are flush with the front. If you see a C-9 that hasn't been properly rebuilt for sale, then don't pay $120-200. It is not worth that price. At this level of rebuild a unit is worth about what I am asking here.
