what's your opinion on the magazine 'stereo review'??
I also read Stereo Review in the 70s. I got married & started farming in 1978. The first load of corn I sold that fall went to purchase a new Sansui AU & TU 717.   Stereo Review had highly recommenced them.

I am pleasantly surprised by the difference. I wish I had my Kappa 8s back. 
Would this room treatment be worthwhile?
When I listen to music in bed the 80" mirror on my headboard caused lots of reflection.  I installed a sound absorbing window blind.  Works great. 
Brave man, McGowan...
I found this power cord on Amazon for $3400 
Carver, THE standard of excellence IMO
Bought my first Carver HR 772 in 1986. I'm still using it in my office.  Next came my TFM 45 & a set of Kappa 8s.  Still have it.  Now in my bedroom I have a TFM 55 on a pair of B&W 803s. Gotta love Carver

The TFM 45 Carver from the 80s is dead quite, very powerful at 375 wpc and inexpensive. Run one through the Carver shop for updates & the sound great. IMHO 
Used vs New vs Vintage vs Floorstanding vs Bookshelf vs ..... OMG!
audiosaurusrexGreat minds think alike.  I am 65 yrs old. I started farming inn 1978. When I sold my first load of corn I too bought an AU 717 & Technics SB 7000s. 
Vintage Carver
I still use a HR-772 I bought new in the mid 80s for my office.  I run a TFM 35 in my bedroom & an upgraded TFM 45 in my living room .
