Taking a quick look at the Amtrak website, a roundtrip on the CZ from Oakland to Chicago today for 3 is:

Family Bedroom - $931.50
Roommette - $1877.50
Superliner Bedroom - $3601.50

The closest comparison to the large CZ bedrooms would probably be the Superliner bedroom, so the price is pretty comparable.
