[net.audio] Turntables--NAK Dragon

In case anybody get's all excited and
runs down to his local Nak dealer...

The price of the Nakamichi Dragon is
around $10,000, not $1,000 as stated
in the previous article.  This puts
it out of Linn territory (yay!) and
into Honda Prelude territory.... :-(

The price of the Nakamichi Dragon-CT turntable is NOT $10,000.
That is close to the price of an earlier version, which has
presumably been replaced by the Dragon-CT.  I think the list
price for the Dragon-CT is about $1450, and I have seen it
offered for sale for about $1200.  Either that, or the list
price is about $1200 and I've seen it for about $1000.  I forget
which.  Either way, the price is competitive with the Linn
Sondek LP12, for instance, and I'm quite sure that, unlike the
LP12, I WOULD be able to hear the difference between a Dragon
and anything else.
