Price trend
23 months of data shown — Listing Comps build richer history as transactions accumulate.
Sold or Listed Prices
11 market transactions via web search — not HiFi Registry sales.
Understanding the market
Half of recorded transactions fall between $479 and $999. The full observed range is unusually wide — the highest recorded price is 16.0× the lowest. A spread that wide usually means the recorded sales are not strictly comparable: different configurations or finishes, units sold for parts or with cosmetic damage, or listings where the model name is shared across more than one variant. Treat the middle range as the useful signal and the extremes as outliers worth investigating before you price against them.
Over the last twelve months this model averaged $1,913 across 3 recorded sales, 180% higher than the preceding twelve months.
What buyers should know
Confirm both monoblocks have matching service histories — a pair where only one has been serviced is effectively two different amplifiers. Check that the seller has both original cartons; these are heavy and awkward to ship safely.
This range reflects 11 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.
