Hey guys...I'm thinking its getting time to sell off a lot of my stuff, and I guess the rules changed since I've been here last so I can't browse the classifieds anymore so I'm hoping you guys can help me out!
The speakers I have are:
RTA-12B
Monitor 5 w/ SL2000
RTA-8T

And a longshot
Pinnacle PN-8+ w/ matching stands

thanks guys...hope this isn't against the rules. :confused:

    Are you trying to put values on the speakers?

    If so, my best suggestion would be to check completed auctions for each model on E-bay.
    That would give you an idea of what the actual selling prices have been in the last six months.

    RTA 12B's. $175-$200
    Monitor 5B's. $65-$75
    RTA 8T's. $100-$125

    Just a rough estimate.

    No idea on what the Pinnacles are worth but those are good speakers!

    Leroy has nailed it on reasonable values for the others, above. I see no reason why someone who's been a member for years can't post info like this even if he's short of the new post limits!

    Nice speakers, all around, BTW!

    I have seen the Pinnacle PN8's sell for anywhere from $80 to $200. Usually around $150. I'm not sure about the stands. to some people they might really increase the value...to others...not so much.
