I don't think I'd ever accuse Carver of producing anything "high-end". I think that boxes like this are generally frowned upon by high-end types, but then, they tend to frown on everything (a generally unhappy lot). The C-9 unit is no longer made, but these days there are a lot of DSP based preamps that have similar functionality built in. Also, you can find this sort of thing for DIY on the web. It only requires a few op-amps and Rs and Cs. This one is a little more basic than the Carver unit that included different delays at different frequencies, but it is based on the same principle.
