I pulled out my old speakers and amp that I bought when I first started my business. It is an Sound Tech PS802 Amp and PAS Speakers with the dial on the back to adjust the bass.

They sounded as good as the day I put them away. Thinking of selling them but not sure what they would be worth. The Speakers are the wedge shaped with the Gray carpet on them.

Anyone have any idea what they might be worth? Thanks

That isn't my amp. That is just a pic I took offline. Mine is missing one knob from the front. Is that one on Amazon used or new? I didn't see where it said new or used.

Not sure how familiar you are with Amazon Karl, but unless something is specifically marked as used, it is new in box.


I buy from them pretty much daily, so I would consider myself an expert in the Amazon world :)

I have only done downloads from there. Thanks.

Mine was used when I got it in 2000 so it is pretty old. But the speakers and amp sounded so good today.
 
40% to 50% of new is generally what you will be able to get unless it's something desirable or in demand like a Bose L1 or a Denon mixer or a Pioneer whatever. craig's list is probably the easiest way to go although you don't live in a large metro area so ebay may work for you. Even though they may sound good to you, they aren't big name brand products like Yamaha, Peavey, Electro Voice etc. so you're not going to get a whole lot for them. If you have the storage space you might want to keep them for a little while for backup. Donating them to a church or a charity is a good way to go too. I've bought a lot of stuff off ebay and craig's list-name brand stuff-for a song. Don't expect much.
 
It would really depend on the model number PAS speaker but all in all if you got $700-$800 you would be doing well

It's not how much they are worth, it's how much can you get for them.

I thought that was understood, so how much do you think I could get for them?

Dude, that was a joke at the expense of the worth movement (and a damn fine one too). :triwink:

GO SARGE!


That said, why don't you donate them to a church or school?

OK. Missed that one. Not enough worth jokes going around lately so I am a little slow.

In answer to the OP:

I could be more helpful with a bit of info- I can't find the actual specs for the amp. Could you at least post the max out at 8 ohms ( and anything else that you know of)?

I will get that for you.

15.8 pounds? How can that be? If it really is I might be interested. How much do you want?

To be honest, I pulled that info off the internet. But it is a heavy amp. I can weigh it tomorrow for you if you want.

I have no idea what I would want. I am one of these DJs who asks about things, buys it, finds out how to hook it up and that is about it. I am not very techy. I should be but I am not.

I bought this set up from John Young in 2000. I worked for him before going out on my own.
 
I've been toying with the idea of getting one of those new super light Peavey IPR-3000 amps for my bigger system which is my EV Sx300 speakers and a pair of EV Sb122 subs. It's powerful enough to run two pairs of mains and the little subs. Believe it or not my EVs can run off of that amp of yours because they're so efficient. Although I'm sure they would go a lot louder and sound better with the Peavey. I need a cheapo backup amp since my old backup amps have all developed problems. I haven't really gotten much chance to use my new Bose L1 Classic yet.

I have a feeling that your old amp weighs a lot more than 15.8 pounds, probably more like 25-30 pounds. I'm trying to lighten the load too . . .

Dimensins and weight different than that on Amazon, but OK.

Great power for the size, and the other specs look dam good, if the factory info can be trusted ( not all can)- but let's assume it right for this app. You said it was several years old, even if in great shape. I'd ask $300-$375. It may certainly be worth more, but this is a fair selling range for a used product, and would probably generate a quick sale.
