Joe - exactly what I thought when I checked to see if the prices in the linked article could be explained by exchange rate (1USD = 0.99CAD). Also, note that in the linked article, the price for the AV8003 is higher ($3150) and the MM8003 lower ($1850) than the prices shown on Marantz's US website. What's your take -- do you think these will ship to the US market with the $3150 / $1850?
It'd be funny if the $3150/$1850 prices are for the Canadian market and the Us gets $2600/$2400 -- will we see cross shipping of the two units by deal-savvy buyers?

"Don't be alarmed about the prices in the read link, which we assume are for the Canadian market"
The days of Canadian prices always being higher are gone. The Canadian and US dollar are essentially at par.
