Market Value of 5ch Lsi System

edited April 2010 in Speakers
Due to my unfortunate economic situation, I'm selling the bulk of my home theater system. While I've got a pretty good idea of what most of the electronics are worth, I've been having a hard time trying to decide on what to ask for the speakers. I have 3 cherry Lsi9's and a pair of LsiFX's. All are basically 9/10 condition and have lived a quiet life (I'm in an apartment). The Lsi9's are about 2 yrs old, the LsiFX's about 1 yr old.

I'm hoping the well informed members here can give me an idea of a fair asking price for the whole system or individual pieces.

Thanks

    An eBay search will net you the info you require.

    Ebay is the best test of market value.


    Lol Jesse! You beat me to it by a nanosecond. Great minds do think alike.

    You could search here but the values between members is usually lower....that's what we do around here.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    yep. close to give-away prices.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Can you give me a ballpark number? I'm willing to let these go for a reasonable price, especially if I could find a local buyer.

    Just do a search and sub-search the Flea Market.

    C'mon now RP...you're starting to look more like an advertisement than someone looking for prices. You can't do that here and good luck on eBay or Audiogon.

    I would sell those for $1300-1500 range, plus about $100 for shipping with insurance.

    Thanks be83663 for the suggestion. I actually have them listed now for quite a bit less than that.
