I like Sovol, I like what they do, and how they do it, but this article makes it sound like Sovol did something groundbreaking.

Eddy? 15€, Rápido UHF (for example, much higher flow hotends out there ) around 70€. Converting an Ender 5 plus (easily found used in the sub 200€ range ) to corexy (Mercury one) around 230€.

So yes, the max is nice, but I'm modifying my 5 plus to be in that category of printer for around 300€, or if I had to buy a used E5+ under 500.

The regular SV08 IS groundbreaking. They essentially made a Voron for half the price.
