Still hasn't got a lick of common sense either.

I think he's a genius. (But this doesn't make me a fan of his power
amplifier designs.)

Agreed. I wonder what H.F. has written
about him in his reference tome?

Well, yes and no.

Carver certainly outflanked Stereophile in the
"The Carver Challange."

Actually, yes. I snapped up one of his original C-9 Sonic Hologram
generators when they first came out. Until then I was using a crude
"Hafler Hookup."
I can remember the first time I ever heard Carver's Sonic Holography,
besides the little test disc that came in Audio magazine. I was in San
Francisco (this was 1980) and I went into this stereo store and they
had Warren Zevon blaring out "Werewolves of London." I said, "Let's
hear it without the rear channels." The guy informed me that only the
two little speakers in front of me were active. I knew right then that
this was some cool stuff. I never did get to hear Carver's little M-1
amp, however, but I always thought it was ironic that someone like
Carver who thought outside the box produced an amplifier that was a
box.
