Mr._Music_Fan Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hi All, I am not sure if this is the correct area for this posting, so please pardon me if I am breaking a rule. I am thinking of selling a few of my speakers and wanted to get an idea of what is a reasonable price for them. Is this correct part of the forums for this posting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr._Music_Fan Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 Thanks guys, I am considering selling the following from my collection. Forte II - Walnut Oiled 8/9 out of 10 for body, Adjustments from stock - Crites XO, titanium tweeter diaphragms, brushed aluminum furniture legs (really helps with the WAF). KG4 - Walnut Oiled 7/8 out of 10 for body. No Adjustments from stock SW12ii - Black Oak 8/9 out of 10 for sides, 5/10 for top. I sanded the black off the veneer and was able to restain the veneer to a Walnut oil comparable match. Location: DFW Pics: Forthcoming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBitRates Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I think the kg4 would be good to start at $375. I think we are all interested to see pics of the forte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockhound Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I sold a mint pair of Forte 2's with the same mods for 550.00 a few years ago. Pics always help 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojomc Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Definitely interested in some Forte II sweetness! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr._Music_Fan Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 (edited) As promised listed below are my Fortes II. I also forgot to mention that I had the passive radiators reconed/repaired by Simply Speakers. Again, not sure that I am selling them, all I am trying to do is get an idea of what is a reasonable price for them. I have spent a bit of money to bring these Fortes where they are and I curious if I am could recoup my costs.

kharp1 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Recouping your costs on upgrades and mods is highly unlikely...this isn't real estate. It's a hobby that we love to indulge ourselves in and the upgrades and mods, though they have some value when sold, are usually done because we just want to see it done for ourselves. Having said that, you can put whatever price you want on anything you own and see what the market does. They are beauties. Good luck with the sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr._Music_Fan Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Thank you for your feedback KHarp, I appreciate it. It is neither my intent nor desire to treat these (works of art) as real estate, but rather I am thinking it is time for me to consider migrating towards a good tube amp, and I am trying to forecast what budget I might have available towards that endeavor. And if I can recoup my costs, then that's a plus. :-) Again, thanks for your feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
