Mine was $750 last year.  I'm sure that's still pretty close.

Last night I ran the -20db pad and still got levels peaking up around -6 to -3, came out great. I have seen the light.

I loved my Marantz ... until this weekend.   Thursday at Beacon ratdog it worked fine first set.  Then it just spazzed after I changed batteries.  All the lights come on - top light and all the LEDs then it stays like that.  Removing batteries and using AC it does not come on at all.   >:(

I bought an SD722 so I could tape the rest of the weekend so I guess I'll send it back to Doug and put it in the yard sale in a few weeks.    :'(

Bad contacts and bad cards seem to be the only draw backs. ;D ;D ;D

Except, when you forget to charge your batteries. ::)

I checked one of these out from school (stock model) and taped sister hazel using sm81's.  Of course I learned the hard way that I need to use the 20db pad.  My question is why did the meters show -6db throughout the show if it was clipping?
