Hard to know without hearing it, but doesn't sound right to me. The Carver system is no panacea for a hardcore audiophile, but OTOH it's not a bad system, and given a clean source (CD or decent bitrate MP3 via the CD player, for instance) it sounds pretty good, and even better as you crank the volume.
Perhaps try to find someone local to you with the Carver setup, and compare performance?
