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

Understanding the market

Half of recorded transactions fall between $1,750 and $2,129. The full range runs 2.3× 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 $2,177 across 12 recorded sales, 12% higher than the preceding twelve months.

What buyers should know

Confirm the gain and loading options match your cartridge type — a moving-coil cartridge into a moving-magnet-only stage will not work. Ask whether loading is adjustable and whether any internal jumpers are documented.

This range reflects 45 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.
