Hi Harry ,
I agree w/ you regarding the ARC SP14 , it's quite good , to my ears much better than the CAT SL1 preamp of the same era . Sounds sublime w/ the ARC CL 30 triode amp and the ARC D250 MK 2 Servo in my friend's system whose likewise using my former VPI TNT MK 2.5 w/ the original JMW 10 tonearm w/ an AT OC9 MK 2 Phono cartridge . He also owns the CAT SL1 so we were able to audition it extensively . It seems in my experience VPI Turntables have good synergy w/ ARC electronics.
Best regards,
930
