“I personally wish to thank you for choosing my
Black Magic 25 amplier. It has truly been a labor of
love, incorporating many of the sonic improvements I
developed for the Silver Seven 900 and Crimson/Raven
350, as well as those from previous designs. Along with
the help of my wonderful staff, we believe that we have
created both a sonic masterpiece and an excellent value.
“It’s time to start enjoying years of musical
enjoyment! But rst, please take the time to read
through this brief manual to get the most
from your Black Magic 25.”
• Ample power for speaker loads from 2 ohms
to 16 ohms, the musicality of premium
vacuum tubes, and the accuracy and pristine
specications that come from Bob’s 50+years of
design expertise.
• Bob’s “listen to the room” innovation. Facilitated
by a special current feedback loop, it allows the
amplier to ‘hear’ the room’s reverb, along with
its unique sonic signature. Each room plays its
own tune, and this amp uses the speaker as a
microphone by using the speaker in reverse to
listen to the room,thereby allowing a portion
of the room acoustic to be expressed through
the main speakers.The room becomes an
integral part of the music in a way no other
Thank
You!
Why
we’re
so proud
of the
Black
Magic
25
amplier allows. Sound is more majestic, more
realistic, and the sound stage is larger and more
compelling.
This phenomenon is impossible to achieve with
normal solid-state amplier designs, whose low
source (output) impedance effectively shorts
out the speaker’s ability to accomplish this feat
• DC Restorer circuit, an exclusive to Bob Carver
designs, keeps the output tubes running cool,
prolonging their life to beyond 50 years!
Other amplier tubes operate at a very high
idle power to keep distortion low, frequency
response extended, and for other technical
reasons.The downside is that tube life is
drastically shortened, about three to six years at
the most.Worse yet, tube performance begins
to deteriorate as soon as the amp is turned on.
In addition to extended tube life, Bob Carver
Company’s DC Restorer eliminates the need to
purchase expensive matched tubes for the Black
Magic 25.
• Unique transformer design delivers enormous
power through an increased turns ratio, with two
extra interleaved windings, each bilar wound
on a core of highest quality, grain oriented,
silicon steel (Bob’s term for it is admantine.
Google it. ) with a pure nickel center section.The
secondary’s are wound with oxygen-free copper
wire and 98% pure silver wire for the critical
internal connections.

competitors.Your new Black Magic comes with
a FIVEYEAR tube and service warranty!
If it is determined that your amp needs
repair, you should rst contact your Bob Carver
Company dealer. If you cannot located the
dealer, contact us and we will provide you with
a Return Authorization. For assistance, contact
us at the phone and email addresses above.
Our Limited Warranty is on page 12 of this
Manual.

Placement and Cooling
Cool air is drawn from under the chassis by the
heat from the tubes acting as an air pump, and
exhausting the warm air out the chassis through
the vents.
Place the amp on a hard surface. Do not place
the amplier on a carpet without something hard
for it to sit on like a piece of nice glass cut to the
same size as the unit.This will allow the feet to do
their job by keeping the bottom raised, allowing
unimpeded airow.
A glass shop can make such a base plate and
in colors if you wish. A nice dark gray, smoke or
opaque black looks beautiful. It should be at least
a quarter of an inch thick.
We also don’t recommend placing the Black
Magic in a tightly-enclosed cabinet without
sufcient ventilation.Allow at least 18 inches of
free space above the amplier.

Inserting the Vacuum Tubes.
The Black Magic comes with three small and
four large vacuum tubes: Two 12AT7’s, one 12AX7,
and four EL-34 output tubes.
Press the tubes into the bases (sockets) gently
so that you don’t bend the pins.
The bases for all three small tubes are identical,
so take care to make sure that the 12AX7 is in the
middle socket.
Tung-Sol in their innite wisdom has
congured their tubes’ black, central base
hole to be slightly different than our
conventional tube bases. Look carefully
so that you line up the raised portion
of the tube’s central base with the “key
way” on the tube base.

More About the Tubes.
The output tubes do not need to be matched,
as the sound of the amp does not at all depend on
matched output tubes.That’s because the DC re-
storer circuit eliminates the need to match tubes.
The only caveat here is that the output tubes
should all be the same type and vintage.
Looking at the amplier from the front, left to
right: the rst tube is a 12AT7, then a 12AX7, and
nally a second 12AT7.We ship Black Magic with
EL34 output tubes. However, you can substitute
KT120’s or any of the popular derivatives such as
KT88, KT90, or KT100. The mighty 6550 may also be
used.
Why we can offer a 5-year warranty
on Black Magic 25 tubes.
There is a meter on the front of the amplier
which can indicate the health of the tubes — get a
bad reading, get free tubes!
As with our more expensive ampliers, Bob
employs his unique twist on a DC restorer circuit
which has two main benets —lower distortion
without dissonant side effects and extended tube
and amplier life.
Our ampliers simply do not run hot. Like their
more expensive siblings, they are the coolest
running tube type ampliers ever, allowing you
to actually touch the tops of the output tubes and
never be burned!
The internal temperature of our ampliers
is a bit warmer than the inside of your mouth
resulting in an extremely long lifespan.
Due to the unique design, all the components
in the amplier undergo much less stress than in
conventional designs.
And, due to the efciency of the concept, our
transformers can be lighter and, despite Bob
Carver specifying esoteric steel for their cores, it
helps us sell a $4000+ amplier for under $3000.
As with his legendary Sunre® tracking power
supplies, the bottom line is that you may expect
our ampliers to outlive any other brand, and our
extended warranties underscore that fact.
We warrant the Black Magic for a full ve years;
that’s the amplier and the tubes! We love the
fact that our nest competitors warrant their
tubes for three months. It’s all about economics.
If your tubes tend to fail, limit the warranty. A
manufacturer has no option; they must. Since
our tubes last for years, it costs us nothing to be
heroic.
Perhaps even more importantly, not only do the
tubes no longer fail every two or three years, they
do not degrade sonically as all tubes must when
boiling away in every one of our competitors
ampliers — a truly remarkable accomplishment
and typical for Bob Carver,Absolute Sound
Magazine Hall of Fame designer.

General Operation.
Bob has intentionally made the Black Magic
extremely simple to operate. Volume (gain) is
determined by your preamplier or DAC.
Tube biasing, using the rear panel control, is
optional and will be covered on page 9 of this
manual.
That’s all there is…except for connecting your
sound source, loudspeakers and line cord.
Speaker Connections.
It is very important to use speaker cables of the
correct diameter in order to reduce power loss. It
is not within the scope of this manual to discuss
all of the esoteric cables available.
The Black Magic 25 speaker terminals will
accept spade lugs, banana plugs or bare wire.
If using bare wire, remove half an inch of
insulation and tightly twist the wire strands
together.They may also be “tinned”with solder
before insertion into the center hole in the
speaker terminal.
From the rear view: the black binding post is
common, and the red post is two or four or eight
ohms.The power curve is quite at, hence the taps
may be used for one or two ohm speakers, or for
sixteen ohm speakers.

Input Connections.
The red RCA-type input is for the right channel;
black is for the left channel. As with speaker
cables, you have many esoteric options as well
as “conventional”connection cables. At the
very least, use high quality RCA cables with gold
plating and durable cable-to-plug connections.
Cheap cables can fail and lead to frustrating
trouble-shooting — who would ever suspect their
connection cables?
Double-check that “left goes to left”, “right goes
to right”,“plus (red) goes to plus (red)”, and “minus
(black) goes to minus (black)”.
Line Voltage
This amplier may be congured for operation
with 120 volts or 240 volts, 50 / 60 Hz.The change-
over must be performed by qualied personnel.
It is a standard under-the-chassis wiring
conguration.
When used with 240 volts, the AC line fuse must
be replaced with a 1.5 Ampere unit.
Fuses
The rear panel line fuse is a 3 Ampere (1.5
Ampere for 240 volt operation), fast-blow type,
and should be replaced with the same type and
rating if it ever needs replacing. Do not, under any
circumstances, use a “slow-blow” fuse here.
The (rear panel) vacuum tube cathode fuse
(B+) is a 1.0 ampere and
should be replaced with
the same type and rating.
If the fuse blows during
bench testing, it may be
temporarily replaced
with a 1.25 or 1.5 ampere
fuse. Do not, under any circumstances, use a “slow-
blow” fuse here!
Normally, a 1.0 ampere fuse will be perfect for
music because the peak-to-average power ratio of
speech and music is about 10:1. If you nd that the
1.0 amp fuse blows with music, you may replace it
with a 1.25 ampere fuse, or even a 1.5 ampere unit.
Power Switch
Up is ON, down is OFF. There is no power-on
indicator except for the glow of the tubes, so you
will have to remember whether you turned it on
for about 10 seconds until you can see the tubes
glow. It is safe to switch the amplier on and off at
will.
Adjusting the Output Tube Bias.
The front panel incorporates a multi-purpose
meter, one of the purposes of which is as aTube
Bias Meter. IMPORTANT: Turn your preamp volume
control all the way down while performing bias
adjustments.
Use a small screwdriver and adjust the BIAS

10
control (located on the rear of the
amplier) for 100 mA, after the
unit has warmed up for about 20
minutes.The normal range to use is
from 60 mA to 120 mA, and changes
here will vary the damping factor of
the amplier slightly. More current
increases the damping factor, whereas less cur-
rent provides a softer more tube-like sound.
The design center is 100 mA, and that should be
your starting point if you want to experiment.
It will vary from speaker to speaker, and most
importantly with your taste.
The meter reads the combined current for all
four output tubes, and it is normal for this current
to vary slightly with changes in power line voltage.
Tube Substitution
The output tubes do not need to be matched,
as the sound of the amp does not at all depend
on matched output tubes.That’s because the
DC restorer circuit eliminates the need to match
tubes.The only caveat here is that the output
tubes should all be the same type and vintage.
Looking at the amplier from the front, from left
to right: the rst tube is a 12AT7, then a 12AX7, and
nally a second 12AT7.The output tubes are EL-34.
Any of the popular derivatives such as 6550, KT88
or KT120 may also be installed. Bias adjustment
will be required when changing tube types.
Output tubes must always be 4 of the same type.
No mixing.
Monitoring and Tube Troubleshooting.
Once the idling current has been set, it will
normally not need to be adjusted for several years
unless you want to a) experiment for different
sound; b) if you install different output tubes, or
c) the amplier suddenly starts to sound funny.
If you hear a POP and see a ash, yet the amp
continues to play, you should rst check the
current and then the output tube fuse.
If the fuse blows, the output current will drop to
zero. If the tube fuse blows, replace it WITHOUT
replacing any tubes.
Turn the amp on and monitor the current. If it
climbs to within the range you had set, and if the
amp sounds good, all is well.
Often, an output tube has a speck of dust-like
impurity, which comes into contact with an
internal element, shorting the element, and is
vaporized into gaseous oblivion.The getter, the
mirror-like shiny plating on the inside of the tube
does its job, absorbs the vaporized material and
the tube is new again.All it takes is a new fuse.
If you install a new fuse and it blows again, you
will need to determine which tube is the culprit.
Proceed as follows:

11
• Remove all output tubes and turn the preamp
volume control all the way down.
• Turn the amp on and leave it on.
• While monitoring the current, put a pair of
tubes into sockets Number One and Number
Two.Allow one minute on the clock for the two
tubes to warm up.
• If the current comes up to about half the normal
amount, both those tubes are good.
• Remove those tubes and install another pair,
also in socketsThree and Four. Continue on
until a fuse blows, or the tubes won’t bias up.
• Then buy or borrow a known good tube (re-
member, if it is actually bad, we’ll pay for the
replacement), and using it as a mate, use the
process of elimination to gure out which of the
tubes is bad by substituting the good tube.At
this point, if you get lucky, only one trial will be
needed. If you are not lucky, then it will take two
trials.
• Now you can turn the amp off.
You will be able to install and remove the tubes
with your bare ngers if you do it within about a
minute or so of installing each fresh set.That’s be-
cause it takes substantially longer than a minute
for the tubes to get too hot to hold.
Tube Tester
The front panel meter may be used to test the
tubes.
• Remove all the power output tubes
• Plug the amp into the AC wall socket with the
main rear panel power switch OFF.
• Insert the tube you wish to test into socket four
(the far-right large tube socket).
• Turn the bias control fully clockwise, then turn
the main power switch ON. With a watch, time
the warm-up period for exactly one and a half
minutes and note the current reading.Turn the
amplier OFF,
• Remove the tube and insert the next one.You
can hold the tube with your bare ngers — it will
not be too hot after only a minute and a half,
provided it was cool to start with.

12
• Keep track of each reading, and repeat until
all tubes have been checked. If any single tube
does not bias up or “runs away” with its cur-rent
climbing substantially higher, ≈200% than the
others, then it must be replaced.
• It is okay to turn the amp on and off at will.
• Return the BIAS CONTROL to its original
position and put all the tubes back into their
sockets.
This completes the tube testing operation.
Matching Output Tubes
Matching output tubes is not necessary, thanks
to the DC restorer. But it’s fun to do anyway. As
noted above, as you wrote down each bias current,
you will end up with six numbers.
The goal is to select two groups of two whose
sum (from any two tubes) is as close as you can
get to the other group of two tubes. Install the rst
group in sockets and two.
Then install the other group into sockets two
and four.The socket positions on the amp, from
left to right, looking from the front are: #1, #2, #3,
and #4.
The new tubes are quite variable, and we
recommend that you should go through the
exercise of matching them as outlined above.
New Amplier Smell
Like a brand new car, this amplier possesses
a “new amplier smell,” even though it has been
built from both new and vintage parts.When
powered up for the rst time, the fresh paint and
recent skin oils on the tubes will create a new, hot
amp smell. I nd it sort of pleasant, but you may
not. It will dissipate with use, usually requiring
about four weeks of normal operation.
Circuit Description
The input stage consists of a 12AX7 current
sourced long-tailed class A amplier, which is
direct coupled to a long-tailed balanced pair
comprised of a 12AT7.The 12AT7 drives the
grids of the EL-34 output tubes through a pair of
coupling capacitors that provide low frequency
loop-gain stability. A dual-diode DC restorer
ensures that the bias voltage remains correct over
the entire audio signal cycle.
The output tubes are arranged in push-pull
parallel, four in all.The screen grids are operated
at approximately 340Volts provided by a separate
power supply formed by one- half of a voltage
doubler supplying the plates with 685 Volts.
The power supply consists of a large power
transformer, with energy storage that is far greater
than necessary. AC lament voltage is biased to
approximately 60 volts. Multiple decoupling lter

13
sections are used with load regulation obtained
through constant current loading.
Turn-on in-rush current limiting is provided by
a thermistor, bias voltage adjustment by a bias
control, and bias current is measured by a meter
that simultaneously senses current for all four
output tubes.A tube fuse is mounted on the rear
apron and provides protection for the output
section in the event of a catastrophic vacuum tube
failure.Additionally, a rear mounted power line
fuse provides overall protection for the amplier.
