I offered them on A-Gon this spring; the highest offer I got was $8300 IIRC. (I paid $12K.) Oh well...maybe that's a good thing, as I still have them.
"If enjoying the sound why mess about." Because hi-end audio isn't about 'If it's not broke, don't fix it'. I think we'll all agree that there are degrees of excellence in reproduced music, and I'm not one to tolerate what I perceive as poor parts in expensive amps. I've managed, sometimes with lots of help from others, to improve the sound quality of virtually all pieces of electronic stuff in my music-reproduction system, and the very-high sound quality (in my and many others' opinions) is a result of that money and effort.
And I don't care much about resale value. Said another way, I don't buy equipment with an eye to selling it.
Probably I'll let these continue to warm until after the Club meeting and then order some parts, starting probably with the output-stage PS.
