Market Value & Restoration Because of their collectability and "warm, dynamic" sonic profile, these units are highly valuable on the used market. Depending on the condition and whether they have been professionally restored, you can expect to find them listed for anywhere from $1,495 to $2,300+. Vintage audio enthusiasts highly recommend confirming that the internal capacitors and potentiometers have been serviced, as older models often need maintenance to operate at factory spec.
