I would like to know the approx. value of my equip


I have a McCormack dna 0.5 deluxe power amp and an Audio Research LS7 preamp. I bought these new in 1998. They are both in very good condition. I would like to sell them and need an idea how much to ask and any suggestions on how to advertise them?

It might be worth it to pay the one-time $20 fee for the Audiogon Blue Book service. I subscribed to it for years when I was burning through equipment sales and purchases. It was worth every nickel, tenfold.

Yes, Use Audiogon bluebook. THEN, to be safe, subtract 25 %!
It seems to be a buyers market out there. I've rarely gotten the bluebook when selling unless it's a high demand item. If a company is out of business, it can dramatically affect the value in spite of what the blue book says. I own Snell Type A V5's. They won't fetch half of what Audiogon says they're worth. This is as fickle a hobby as any. If you accept this principle, you'll sleep easier. Joe

When selling, I've beaten the BlueBook a few times, and I've had to go way below the BlueBook at times. It just depends on the item. When buying, I've paid above BlueBook if I just had to have the item and it was one of the very few around.
