Is Bob Carver Still in Business?


I have tried to contact the Bob Carver company on some advice on tubes used with the Black Raven 350 amp via phone, email, and through his latest listed distributor Jim Clark.

No one answers the phone, returns emails etc.

I am asking not implying anything, didn’t they have some quality issues with their contract builder of their amplifiers. I thought they were sourcing  a new builder?

Hello Sir,

We have one builder that does a great job running a line in California. Bob has a dedicated production facility in Illinois as well. 

Thank you,

Jim

Obviously you have never listened to our product. Maybe you should buy the Topping that is #2 on ASRs list? Reports are that is sounds pretty poor but ranks really high. Yes copy and paste is the easiest way to respond with the truth. Sorry if you have an issue.

Ahhh, the snobbist approach to high end audio sales. Those of us who have been in audio a while have seen this before. Good luck to you and Bob! You're going to need it.

Hiya @jimclarkstereo I took the amp challenge last month, bought 1, then another to go mono. Making my Blade2 sing & dance & clap in glee! Pics on my system page.

Ignore the studio apartment trolls with esteem issues; they’re still protesting MQA.

 

Hello Mr zufan,

Thank you for your business, Sir.

Its always a pleasure sharing Bobs amplifiers with people and getting great feedback on the dynamic, musical and enjoyable performance they bring, compared to a wide variety of other products.

Its always good to hear this, knowing the customer is under no obligation to keep the amplifier and pays no-restocking fee if they don’t love it. Its the most honest way we know to sell hi-fi in todays market. Customer satisfaction is the goal.

The amps look great! Thanks for sharing.

Jim
