Sold or Listed Prices
5 market transactions via web search — not HiFi Registry sales.
Understanding the market
Half of recorded transactions fall between $1,520 and $2,000. The full range runs 2.1× 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 $1,588 across 3 recorded sales, 21% lower than the preceding twelve months.
What buyers should know
The transport mechanism is the limiting component, and many are no longer manufactured. Ask whether the laser assembly has been replaced and whether the unit reads CD-R and recordable media, which is usually the first symptom of a tiring transport.
This range reflects 5 recorded sales, compiled from publicly listed and completed sales elsewhere on the used market, not from HiFi Registry transactions. That is enough to establish a working range, but not enough to be precise — treat it as a guide rather than an appraisal.
