Hello,
I've been contemplating selling my original SDA SRS speakers. They are still all original and in excellent condition. Can someone help provide what the going rate is for these lately. Thanks.

    The going rate appears to be anywhere between 850 and 1300 for original SRS...

    My favorite Peter Gabriel song is "Spank The Monkey".

    7 posts in 8 years is quite a feat lol

    there's a pair of them on Ebay that are $2,499 that look close to new. but I've seen them for less than $1,000 like Nooshin said. I guess it just depends on what condition they're in. personally i'd gladly pay $2,499 for a pair that was working and that looked like said pair.

    Original SRS models go for somewhere around a grand on average.

    The only SDAs I've seen for $2500 or more were 1.2TLs when audio gear was a peaking a few years ago.

    The 1.2Tls still sell for $2000 or better. There were a couple of pairs that sold over the last six months in that range!
