"While our typical hotel coverage involves HDTVs and/or special  programming, we'll make an exception for the Marantz/DALI audio setup getting dropped into the Empire Suite of Manhattan's Carlyle hotel.  We won't make any guesses about what the rack rate is for the duplex suite in the swank hotel, but it's got to be cheaper than the audio system, which combines four MA-9S2 mono amps, an SC-7S2 preamp and SA-7S1 SACD deck from Marantz's Reference lineup with a pair of DALI MEGALINE III speakers.  All told, that's about $47,000 of Marantz gear and another cool $60,000 for the speakers, all to deliver good old two-channel.  Might we suggest staying in and ordering room service?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
