Carver AV-634 (circa 1994)
The Carver AV-634 was a four-channel power amplifier for audio or A/V systems running more than two speakers. The clearest period record is HiFi/Stereo (February 1994, p.68), which listed it at $600 and rated it at 60 watts into each of its four channels. It also had a three-channel operating mode and an adjustable electronic subwoofer crossover. That was a useful feature set for the early home-theater era, when adding a powered sub to a multichannel setup still typically meant jury-rigging the wiring.
Beyond that listing, little is documented about the AV-634. No detailed spec sheet, production dates, or further contemporary coverage have surfaced in the available record. Its exact place in Carver's mid-1990s amplifier lineup, and how long it stayed in production, remain unrecorded.
