I haven't invested in new Stern. I have placed nice DMDs on location (TOM, WCS, DW, NF) and kept them well maintained which costs $$$. Not sure if maintenance costs are lower for new Stern though, I've posed the question here and it sounds like even out of the gate you can count on regular maintenance - boards dying, components breaking, etc, so that's kind of kept my from making that investment. Yer looking at 7k plus tax plus delivery is about 8.5k for a Stern pro in Canada now.
