Sold or Listed Prices

31 market transactions via web search — not HiFi Registry sales.

Understanding the market

Half of recorded transactions fall between $850 and $1,399. The full range runs 3.6× from lowest to highest, which is normal for used equipment where condition, included accessories, and service history vary between units.

Over the last twelve months this model averaged $1,730 across 8 recorded sales, 81% higher than the preceding twelve months.

What buyers should know

Digital components depreciate on input support and format compatibility rather than condition. Confirm what the USB input accepts, whether drivers are still available for current operating systems, and whether the unit is still supported by the manufacturer.

This range reflects 31 recorded sales, compiled from publicly listed and completed sales elsewhere on the used market, not from HiFi Registry transactions. That is a large enough sample to price against with reasonable confidence, though condition and provenance still move individual units.
