How does the audio quality sound with P25 equipment compared with D-Star?

Since P25 is very expensive, are almost all users getting used 
equipment? How much does this cost? I have heard new prices for HT's at 
$1500. Is that really true?

What about the cost of the repeater? Or did you buy a used one? Either 
way, what kind of cost is involved in the repeater itself? I assume that 
the cavities and antenna, etc.,  are identical to analog repeaters.

Thanks for any information you can share.
