Hallo from Germany,

I did read a lot about the ar-9.

and found a new collection of ar-9 and ar-1.

are they the same quality as the classical ones?

I did hear that they have total different components inside.

here you can find the ar-1. are they better than the ar-9?

These are completely unrelated to "classic" AR Speakers. They are a surround-sound system from Audiovox, a company who owns the rights to the AR name. As far as classic speakers, I'm not aware that AR produced anything "worthy" of their previous name after the mid 1980s but that is just a personal opinion. When I was buying speakers in 1990, current ARs weren't even on my radar as worth listening to.

Of course, one thing I didn't realize then was that AR speakers from the early 70's were still better than most of what I was looking at in 1990! I just figured that out a couple of years ago... :lol:
