I think the short answer is: no.
I own 2 printers, not repraps as such (both replicator clones), one is quite noisy and can take any amount of bumping and prints a decent resolution. You can buy one for around $500.
The other - essentially the same design (replicator clone) I often have to look at to check it's still printing, it's that quiet - also will print at 0.05 mm layer height and I suspect you could hit it with a sledge hammer while printing and it wouldn't give a toss. It's that solidly built.
That one costs $899 and is worth every cent.
So for an extra $1000 - you're not actually offering anything people can't already buy for considerably less.
Motor wise are you changing to servos rather than stepper motors ?
Had a demo on that by the 3dp unlimited guys at tct.
While there was a serious difference - not sure a cheapish desktop needs it.
