Pair of Carver Amazing Silvers in Piano Black finish. Previous owner replaced all 6 woofers with new. Ribbons are 100%, no issues. Cabinets have some nicks/scratches. All in all, these are very presentable, they'll be even more so with a bit of cleanup and TLC. Sale includes NOS pair of new grille assemblies + the grilles currently on the speakers. Speakers sound GREAT!

$550 firm. I cannot ship these. Located in central Massachusetts. Pics sent to serious buyer on request. I prefer buyer to come direct to me, see and hear prior to purchase. I'd like to keep these, unfortunately lack of space mean I cannot. :(

Again, I cannot ship them, if shipping needed, it's up to the buyer to make all arrangements.

Thanks for lookin'

Best,

Paul

Very Nice Speakers for the Money! I would buy it if we live closer.

Good Luck with the sales!

If you haven't posted them already in the Carver Forums (both of them), I think the folks there will be very interested too.

Great offering Paul, at a fantastic price.

My friend Harold tormented me all the time when I first got my Plat's to part with them. I found him a pair of Silvers in oak, around 1992. Those things still sound fine. Those were delivered from a store in Greenwich Village, down here to South Jersey, and then we tried humping them up a tight spiral staircase, but ended up hoisting them into the loft area. DH-500 amp and they sounded just fine up there.

I see my "friend" F1nut is stalking posts regarding this sale on other forums.

What a class act!

Have a look folks:

Thanks for the PM's here about this.. there were MANY of them. Seems that F1's fan club base isn't as large as he may think. :D

You do realize that what you posted above reflects poorly on you and not me. I wasn't going to say anything here, but since you opened the door......I still haven't forgot about your complete lack of integrity.

Please return me to your "Bozo" list F1. You have no knowledge WHATSOEVER of my integrity, and I want nothing to do with you, or your spiteful comments.

YOU are the one who called me an "asshole" on the Carver forum. YOU are the one, though I repeatedly asked you in plain simple english to "agree to disagree", however you cannot and now seem to have nothing better to do than stick your nose up my a** wherever I go. You sir, are a pissant who gets his jollies as nothing more than opinionated high post count internet fool who's entire life it would appear revolves around this forum and a few select others.

Let me put it in plain english you may understand:

"F1nut, take a hike"

Paul

beemer is out of line no doubt, he came to our forum posting his little nasties, so that is what he got from F1, now beemer wants to turn CP against CP by creating spite over F1???? beemer whats obvious is you do not know the history of this place, dude you are fitting the description of an ass hole perfectly.

beemer, you sure seem to like to tell folks what to do, so I have something for you...........

go stand in the corner, rest your neck and play with yourself.

I'll be sure to do that. Make sure you do the same.

CP history condensed version:

A small group of bitter trolling men with "step 'n' fetchit" in the lead, and a pile of trolls in lockstep behind waiting to pounce on the crumbs.

You certainly brighten up my day! It's just SO EASY to tug on your wires and see you dance.

I hear you George. I'm happy to give back exactly what I get. Treat me with courtesy and respect and get the same back as you have done since I've been here. You and I never have a problem, and the reason is obvious... respect passes both ways...... It's a pretty simple concept.

It seems it's OK though to piss in someone's sales thread. Perhaps I should do what's been done to me, and go in other folks sales threads and call them an asshole.

Maybe that's the thing......like my friend......perhaps because I do not agree with him and a few others I'll just follow them around and drop bullshit in their sales threads, post baseless innuendo, call them liars and so forth.

Best to you George,

Paul

kawizx9r:

If you ever get out this way, PM me and come for a visit if you like. Have a few beers and tunes to go with 'em. I'd rather listen than sell. I've got the two systems in the house you may enjoy hearing if you like. :D

Not to shit on your thread but i think its a little late to apologize for that with this kind of remark. I normally dont step into flame wars but you're out of line and obviously know NOTHING about CP history. Seems you are the bitter troll in this case.

BTW Best of Luck with your sale

Thanks Pauly....the speakers are sale pending. I'm not bitter at all. :D I'm just like a mirror.....I'm happy to give back what I get.

Pauly, the majority here at CP are great folks. There is a small core group here however that thrive on controversy however. This has been commented on over and over in other internet audio forums.

I'm sorry you feel I'm out of line. My observation is not all inclusive of everyone at CP.

No need for a PM. F1 and I do not see eye to eye on many things. Best to not perpetuate that which serves no good purpose. This is the internet, nothing much here matters when you switch off the computer.

Just wanted to pass on my many thanks to Paul. I am the new owner of his Amazing Silvers. They sound absolutely superb in my living room. I currently have a full ACI Concepts setup--3 hand-built Dzurko Jaguars across the front and 4 sapphires on the sides and rear for my home theater (prior to that I was a very happy Polk owner full 5 speaker system anchored by SDA-1Cs). I can't describe how great the imaging and crispness of the vocals are with the Carvers. I got them to build a system for my son from my old vintage stuff (Carver C-4000t, Hafler DH-500), but the tempation to keep them in my living room is tremendous!! I actually prefer the vocals on the Silvers over my Jaguars.

Final note--as a closet audio-nut, I spend a lot of time trolling the various forums, rarely signing up or commenting, as it's too easy to get baited into a flame war. It's a shame that sales threads can't be confined to sales. I found Paul to be a very gracious host, with an incredible wealth of knowledge and expertise. Just walking through his house and garage was like traveling though time in an audionut's universe! I was unfortunately rushed, and was only able to spend about an hour there. Given the opportunity, I would have preferred to to spend a few hours talking audio history. Again, my thanks to Paul for an outstanding experience!

Thank you Jerry! A pleasure meeting you after your drive from Virginia. I'm glad the Silvers met and exceeded your expectations. Here's hoping when you travel to visit this area again you may have more time, we can raise a few beers and I give you my word....I'll fire up the big Levinson system in the Livingroom for ya.

Best,

Paul
