| Audio Research SP9 MKII Having owned both the SP-9 mkII & SP-14, I have to agree with oregonpapa. Both were good performers, when equipped with the Siemens, early 60's, grey shield, CCa, but- the 14 did have better presentation than the 9. I handed my 14 down to... | |

| Quicken the burn in time for new speakers by using a cheaper SS amp? What jea48 said, plus 1. Buy an old stereo receiver and tune it to a rap station(a heavy bass genre).
