Yes, the Dual DGX Spark looks like the sweet spot for this model for now. Good preprocessing speed. Lots of context. Fast enough for 1-5 devs perhaps. Around 8200€ as of today (used to be 6000€).
Dual Strix Halo is much slower and current Macs with 256GB are both slower and more expensive (Mac Studio M3 Ultra 256GB around 12000€).
To get something faster than the two Sparks you'd need to spend more than $22000 for a server with 2x RTX Pro 6000 at $10000 each.

Beyond that you could get 2x AMD MI350P.
