HI: Terry
Boy oh Boy do I ever agree with this statement.
"quote from Terry"
"I hear what you are saying about playing one first. I have found though until one has it in their studio for a week or so and really has a chance to play with one, it's hard to judge."

When I first got my 9000 PRO it was a Love Hate thing for sure, I special ordered it without
playing one first, as there was no place I could find that had one to try out.
One day I would Love it & the next day I would absolutely Hate it. This went on for a month or more.
I gave my Dealer such a bad time about it he even agreed to take it back even though it was a special
order.
But after connecting it to a dual 32 band EQ it is great, I haven't regretted keeping the PRO for even
one minute. I still Love it after having it for 20 month's & believe me this is unusual for me to still like
some thing this long.

Enjoying the 9000 PRO
Denny
