Yes, the 6000 was indeed released. I have a couple of units, together wit
h a
number of the software packs.

Here's a brief article about it:

I've also scanned the Installation Guide, just in case it's of any intere
st:

Here's a scan of a fairly "late period" price list:
http://www.stairwaytohell.com/temporary/Hybrid-PriceList-July1991.jpg

I'd imagine that they may have been more expensive upon initial release,
but
to summarise the prices: (all excl VAT)

Music 1000 Amplifier - £140
Music 2000 Interface - £140
Music 3000 Expander - £100
Music 4000 Keyboard - £146.96
Music 5000 Synthesiser - £140

I've also got a few brochures for various Hybrid products e.g. M2000, M30
00,
M4000, Ample Nucleus, Amplinex, Universal Software Pack, Music Publisher
etc.
If you think these would be of use for your project, let me know and I'll
 sort
out some scans.
