I'm in too.  

What are the chances you could do it as a two voice chassis that you add voice cards too to allow options?

About the price: people bought Jomox SunSyn and studio electronics Omega 8's.  John bowen's Solaris is up around there as well.  

Fine synths are like fine guitars or string instruments, in my view.  They should be priced as such.
