So possibly around $700, but I'm sure Shawn or someone else (I believe there's at least one Octava buyer here) have the correct pricing. If you like me want to listen to multi-channel HQ audio without a display turned on - and don't have a HDMI scaler - you'll also need a HDFury2. Another $250.
Can we get a more exact quote than my guess?
