It seems I was mixing up my numbers with the DW600, although I am familiar with both machines and remember remarking to myself that it seemed strange that the DW8000 was as cheap as the DW6000. The DW6000's are going for $599 in the Chicago area, and I called up the local 2-bit music store about a DW8000 and was quoted at $925 (Sound Works, Woodridge). I believe the large- volume distributors (like DJ's and Guitar Center) will, with a little dickering, come down to somewhere in the upper-$800's. I've had several correcting responses via e-mail, some of which indicated that they were getting ready to take a cross-country drive. Maybe you'll want to change your minds now. -etan
