Capacitor assemblies to replace Capacitor Technologies' 50/80 V dual capacitors inCARVER M-1.5, M-1.5T, PM-1.5 and PM-1200amplifiers. Theseassemblies have been custom designed for Carver 1.5 series amplifiers,and feature low ESR design, long life, compact size and precision-aligned pins for high performance and ease of designed for Carver 1.5 Series amplifiers (M-1.5, M-1.5t, PM-1.5).
Each assembly replaces 2 original dual capacitors--only one assembly is needed for a M-1.5(T) or PM-1.5amplifier.High quality custom PCB made from two sided FR-4 material.Highest quality capacitorsare used in the assemblies. Theyare rated at 63 and 100 Volts, meaning that they will be operating well below their limits. This results in significantly improved lifetimes for the parts.Compact design fits footprint of original parts--no additional wiring or component mounting is required!Low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) design for superior audio performance.Mounting pins are precision-aligned so assembly slides right into M-1.5(T) and PM-1.5 power supply board capacitor holes.Fits the Carver PM-1.5 and PM-1200amplifierswith no modification.Assemblies measure 1.5" X 2.6" X 2.3" Complete installation instructions are included, sent as a PDF via e mail.Similar to Carver 602-00500-01 capacitor replacement board, which is no longer available.The original Capacitor Technologies' 50/80 V capacitors tend to be very failure-prone--the Achille's heel of an otherwise superb amplifier. A bad filter cap can cause a low- to mid- frequency hum or distortion in the outputs.A failed capacitor can also put the amp in protection mode, rendering it inoperable. Generally, a bad filter cap will affect both channels equally.Many people replace the Capacitor Technolgies parts as a preventative measure.

The assemblies are brand new and will be shipped in protective packaging. The listing is for the capacitor assemblies only, not the complete amplifier.
The capacitors can be replaced by a person with intermediate to advanced soldering skills. A soldering iron, solder wick and solder are needed to replace the part. When you're done soldering, wash your hands because solder contains lead. Please note that replacing the capacitorswill fix the amplifier only if the capacitors were the problem to start with!
STRONG WARNING!!! Carver amplifiers have high voltages of 120 VAC and +/- 125 VDC present during operation. They have capacitors that can store potentially deadly charges for several minutes after power is disconnected from the amplifier. Repairs to be made by qualified service personnel. We do not want you to get hurt, and we don't want you to hack up these classic amps!!! Ifyou need assistance witha repair, we can do itat our facility, or referyou to another qualifiedrepair facility.
