Used to own the SP-9. Read the Stereophile reviews. It never lived up to its hype. ARC modded it two times. There are SP-9 Mk IIIs floating around out there somewhere
I moved up the ARC line up and landed at the Ref 3, a very good linestage. I'm currently holding at the Ref 6.
You might want to look around for a used SP-20, which basically has the innards of a Ref 5/LS27 and a PH-8. Check the reviews.
In short, I would be circumspect about dropping a grand on the SP-9.
