Actually I'm repairing a Bose 1800VI power amp that is reputed to be
quite good. But when you pull it apart it turns out to be Carvin.
** Yep, a PM1400 " magnetic field " job.
Tip from an expert:
Be very wary of any amplifier that has speaker maker's name on it.
Bose, JBL, AR, Renkus-Heinz, EV, Altec ......
I was thinking about a different amp entirely, which was internally
Carvin - not Carver.
This says Bose on the PCBs - I wounder what the Carver one says.
**Err - it says "CARVER"

It is
a 'straightish' Class AB power amp with a touch where DC rails are
monitored and a triac momentarily switches in an extra section of mains
transformer primary if they dip.
** Bit like the Carver then.
