marantz nd8006 vs Ruby vs n30

I don’t know if I can help much. I am looking at the nd8006 also. I need a CDP, and streamer. I have a tube integrated on back order that should be here in a few weeks. 
 New amp doesn’t have a phono Stage or DAC, my current one has both. I just can’t find a better option for the money than the 8006. I have looked at many combinations, but it gets more complicated (and expensive)than I want to deal with quickly. I know most Marantz product are not the “end all be all” products for everyone, but I don’t have a golden ear either. A good amp, some well matched speakers, and the 8006 with my Rega P3 seem like a pretty good system to me. 

The 8006 has all the flexibility I will ever need . I have  always liked the Marantz sound from what I have heard. At  some point I may consider a DAC upgrade, but that would probably do it for me.

I have seen the 8006 for $1099 for open box with full warranty, have you seen it new in the box for $1100, if so where?

Marantz Customer Service is terrible.  Just sayin.  Perhaps look at other brands?

$1100 is what I mean for the Open Box one, yes...

Update:  I went with the Ruby amp, and snagged a deal on the matching Ruby cd player so I went for it, ... for system 1.  So, it'll be Ruby amp + cd, and a the updated BlueSound Node 130 for my streamer... pretty clean setup in terms of components. 

The Ruby CD has a supposedly great dac to run the Blue through the Ruby coax in dac, and my legacy disc changer for when I just want to spin it all day in the background can go in through the optical dac input on the Ruby CD. To hook it into the TV for 2.1 audio,  I'll toss either an HDMI in extractor - RCA out into RCA on the Ruby amp or just get a Modi 3 dac and run optical to the Modi3 then to the Ruby amp.  Yes, the BlueSound also has HDMI in (and optical) so I could go that route w the TV too

I got the Ruby CD player over the 8006 just to match the Ruby amp plus I snagged an open box deal on it.  

It's a tough call though for me, as the 8006 does have the more full hookup options and streamer and it does have consistently excellent reviews.  I'm still thinking about the 8006 for my other system... 

As for Marantz customer service, on the other hand their products have good durability in the first place usually, and being a large brand it is not difficult to find service centers should that become necessary.  But the build quality of the 8006 is good, and likewise w the Ruby.

I didn't go Accuphase amp because the one I was looking at cost more than my entire system that I just described, and I'm confident the Ruby amp is going to really be nice, would likely to MY ears, with their limitations, just as good or better than the Accuphase with my speakers (Klipsch Heresy IV and EPI 100 updated w Human Speakers parts) and take care of me for a long time...  

Nice system! Marantz Ruby is a sweet setup! Congrats!
