I've never heard of SPX9000, but would certainly recommend SPX900 or
its bigger brother SPX1000. I've been lead to believe that the difference
between the two is that SPX1000 can be used in STEREO (ie, Left and Right
hand INPUT channels can be processed independantly) where as this is not
the case in SPX900. However, SPX900 does have independant control of its
left and right hand OUTPUT channels! I guess SPX1000 = 2 x SPX900 -- this
certainly seems to be the case if you compare the prices.
(In England, SPX900 = 500pounds while SPX1000 = 900pounds approx.)

Me too.
