    It isn't worth much....probably $50 at the most.
    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.

    Audiogon says average is $130, low is $80. Trend is towards the low price. See attached

    Yes. Thats why I did not renew my subscription to there service. I figure if you are going to sell a pricing service it should be updated more than every 2 years or so.

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    It's up to the individual members' to report the figures, not Audiogon. It's usually more accurate than Orion for popular gear.

    Hmmmm.... Well I guess the members all stopped reporting in 2005 :D I have never seen a newer report on an older item. Im sure your right but its still an awful service. Orion must really suck then lol. I think for myself at least ebay is probablly the most accurate and up to date for most items even though there market place research service isnt cheap.

    I'd have to say that 2 years ago is when the last one of those was actually sold on Audiogon.
