I just scored a heck of a deal on a Carver AV-705x 5-channel amp:
The only problem with it (which isn't really a problem) is that sometime before I got it, a couple of the RCA input jack ground sleeves were removed. Look at the two left most input RCA connectors in the photo below:
I believe that these sleeves are removable if one is having ground loop problems. But once removed, they are easy to loose.
Does anyone know where I can get a couple of these sleeves?
Thanks!
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Let me ask this in a different way. Is there any way to repair those two jacks or should I take the opportunity to upgrade all 5? And if so, PCB or panel mount jacks?
Thanks!
Thanks!
I have the same power amp with the same problem, did you ever find out how to repair or replace these RCA jacks I would like any replays on this need to get mine fixed Thanx

Hi! My carver amp rca input is missing those ground collars too, did you figure out how to fix? I can’t find a part that will work. Thank you!
