Here's the web page
http://www.nagraaudio.com/pro/pages/products_ares_pII.php

The Nagra Ares PII+ is a great 24/96 recorder, but it's
price is in the stratosphere.  Expect to pay about
$2400 USD without any mic capsules or Compactflash
memory cards.  Dan Dugan is a Nagra dealer; he could
provide an accurate quote.

In this price range, the Sound Devices 722 is generally
preferred.  The ARES-PII+ might be useful if you place a
high value on smaller size and reduced weight.

Despite its smaller size and weight, the ARES-PII+ has
a very rugged construction.  I bet you could use it to
drive nails without any damage.
