OP,
If you love the sound of your power amp and is not ready to part with it, try replacing the electrolytics as almarg suggested. You'll hear a difference. I just replaced the electrolytics of a c-j MF-2100 power amp, PF-R and PV-10AL preamps and am happy with the result. Can't speak for the Carver.
