I dont know where you live but there is a audio video repair shop in Valdese N.C. called Burke audio and video. I was looking around at some of his for sale stuff and he had a old but never used 2 channel Carver receiver for sale for I think 300 bucks . He also had some Carver seperates and lots of other old stuff like Optonica. He repaired an NHT sa2 amp for me and done a very professional job. Might be worth checking into . He might ship it to you.
