Just checked Bryston 14BSST2 MSRP is $9550, say discounted at @6-7k it is still quite a fair bit off. Pretty good value I must say.

I have about 720 hours on the A5 and Irv with Magico S5 it takes a 1000 just to get 85-90%. So they are still improving. They hurt my ears out of the box but noticed a big improvement at 500 hours.

Do you have A200's yet or any other Accuphase amps? I originally thought the sound would be on the warmer fuller side but am finding that they are extremely neutral and can be a little hard on the ears with certain speaker / cable combo's at higher volumes.
