Though it was an odd thing. TAS 'MADE" Audio Research famous and successful/
IMO without TAS Audio Research might have never made it big time.
Then the tepid review of the SP-15. Which was basically damned with faint praise.
((PS I Own a used SP-15 I bought for $1,500 used. (new price was $6,000.) And I can thank TAS for the great deal on a wonderful preamp.))I know HP would 'keep' stuff he was sent for review.. Sort of on permanent loan... Though between Infinity and ARC, he really gave them their money's worth in sales.
I STILL want to own the Infinity RS
