Yamaha HX-10000 phonostage, any views?

Hi,

Has anyone ever heard this top of the line cost-no-object phonostage by Yamaha? The HX-10000 was released in 1987. It was part of their Centennial edition. Dual mono and all in big well isolated chassis. I love the vintage Yamaha phonostages but this one is rare and expensive so before I put my money down, I would like some inputs from you all. Anyone heard them? Whats your take on this unit?

Pani I know where in Europe you can buy a HX-10000 for 5000 Euro in a private sale. Email me if you would like a link.

You can buy them in Japan for 1/2 that.

Yahoo Japan - they come up from time to time -

Hifido last sold one for EU$3000 - at auction they can be had for much less than that.

So that's historical. You cannot buy one from Japan for half of 5000 Euro, now.
