From what I am reading, it will be about 7k so I will need to wait for one heck of a sale but, it's nice to know Marantz is keeping up on high end equipment~!

H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

That Marantz will hit street prices for $5500 and thats a whole lot of cheddar coming from those guys. You always seem to get way more for your money when it comes to Marantz so I am super curious as to how good that thing really is. Esoteric and stuff is good so the fact that they are entering their market must mean they are pretty sure of themselfs that they have an amazing unit. By the looks of that page reading all the specs I suspect that this is going to be something pretty special and I am looking forward to getting my hands on one when they hit the used market.
I have been playing my Marantz NA 11S1 for nearly a year now and its my go to unit when I hook up the VAC monoblocks with a Chord preamp. I just recently tried sold the Chord Hugo and did a shootout between the two, at the end of the day I greatly prefered the sound of the NA11s1 against that and the Mcintosh D150.
Skip, we need a demo roadshow
