Yes!
Along with some additional resolution and bass punch, the most important difference to me was fixing the somewhat thin sounding lower midrange. I purchased mine used about 15 years ago first as a MKII then had it updated by the factory about a year later.
I agree that the SP-6C isn't the model of a warm sounding tube product. That's what the SP9 replaced. OTOH, I think an SP-6B, however, does fit that mold. Ironically, I based my decision to buy an SP6 based upon hearing the SP6B from two different audio reviewers. By August of 1981 when I pulled the trigger, the SP6C was current production.
and called audio research and they said they had stopped doing the upgrade from the mkII to the mk III roughly a year previously, otherwise I would have upgraded it at that time. Norm

I found it to be a worthwhile investment.
