A dealer I trust said that the ART and the 16 are both top preamps, and that the 17 is a good step below them.
That was several years ago, however, and I know there is now an "ACT" preamp and other changes to the c-j line. I have no idea where the 14 fits in.
My experience with a PV-10 was that it is basically mid-fi.
Hope this helps.
