...but somehow you slipped that reference in.;-)
As to manufacturing costs: it does indeed depend on your point of view, your economies of scale, and your target market. Teac's DV-60 apparently uses the $600 drive that you described, but with relatively (I would guess) large scale production, prices it at an MSRP of USD $5,600. That's in the price range of your C-5xe, though the size of the production runs at Ayre will be different, I'd venture to say.
Since you've mentioned the C-5xe: you and I talked about *PFO* reviewing it a couple of years ago. Email me if you'd like to pursue this further...we have quite a few universal players here right now, including the DV-60.
All the best,
david
