I think you a referring to a 9000J and not a K. Not to confuse with 9K which usually stands for 9000 and means a J in the States.

You can get small J's for around $100k. But they are usually older.
Normal price is around $150k for J's and $300k for K's. 72 or 80 channels.

I had a 9000 J once, and alone getting the desk out and in a room is a major project. The amount of cables alone is insane! No comparison to a 4000. You have an external patchbay with a DL distribution board. The amount of DL cables is ridiculous!
It took me 2 weeks alone to get the 9000 out of the place I bought it from. That was so scary that I decided to sell it right afterwards and go back to my trusted 4000. It seemed like a walk in the park after the 9000 affair.
