You just don't get this build quality anymore, and at £20K for the pair they're worth every penny

The matching NS speakers would be nice but those amps are WAY overpriced!

£20K on amps !!! A set of 1980s amps that look like it. No doubting the build quality but for sound quality ? Will only sell at that $$$ in Japan where the rarety value may help.

Probably go back to Japan. They have some SERIOUS kit and names you normally wouldn't associate with hi end produce some very expensive kit.

Tests at the time put them on the same level as similarly priced Krells and Audio Research amps, I've not heard them personally, but an pal of a pal heard a complete system, with the matching CD player and NSX10000 speakers, and he was astonished at the sound quality saying "quite simply it was the best system he'd ever listened to"

As to Value they probably will go back to Japan as they love them
