whart:   The problem is Audio Research does not have the time to work on something that Steve Huntley messed up, and I am qualified to work on it but I don't have the time either ..........I build tube amplifiers and I have about 10 orders now, so I don't have time............Will

Try Audio Classics- they do sell used ARC and I know they had a lot of work to do on that Marantz 7, which had been bastardized. They won't be cheap. Bill Thalmann, who did a fair amount of pieces for me, passed, sadly. Good luck, the SP-10 has a well deserved place in the history of tube preamps, though a tad microphonic.

I think I'll give it a couple days and if I can't get something going on it I will just sell it to someone who has the time and money to repair it.............It does work, just not real good and a couple people ask to buy it...........Will
