I have search all over the internet looking for a schematic for the SAE Mark9 preamp. I am working on restoring my old one I have been able to get most of it working the phono stage is giving me some issues.
Any information you may have pictures, schematics would be greatly appreciated, or information where I could find them. I have many of the sites that are dedicated to SAE but no luck.

Try the MK30 preamp schematic. The 30 uses a Darlington and regular transistor whereas the MKIX uses three discrete transistors, might be close. I searched everywhere for the MKIX/B but no luck either. Then there's the MKIB schematic that might be useful also. I have both service manuals if you need them.

Thanks Craig I have downloaded both of those, and yes it is helpful but it isn't completely the same. Thanks for the reply really appreciate your help!
here is some related link: https://www.davidsaudio.com/html/sae_product_lines.html
http://www.wardsweb.org/audio/sae_info.htmlMark9=Mark IX, perhaps it is SAE 2900 or SAE3000

Thanks I did look at those but no luck either, you would think somewhere there would be a schematic, but not easily found!
I get all of my SAE schematics/service manuals from Musicparts. They have a listing for a MKXI/B but I'm pretty sure it's a typo. However it's an offline manual and it will take forever for them to scan it so you can order it. I've been waiting a couple of years for them to scan the MK27 schematic. Anything after the MKIX/B will have opamps in place of discrete transistors.
I did email musicparts twice a month back they never replied! Sounds like you have poor luck with them.
