Have a lady wanting to sell me a pair of these amps. Anyone have any ideas what a fair price would be? I looked at the usual auction sites but none of this model were found in the recent history. I know they are 170 watts and weigh a ton.

Thanks for any input.
 
I couldn't find any 1570s but if they look good and sound OK they ought to be worth at least $500/pair. I think they are used mostly in HT with VOTs. Big green and very heavy and need a preamp. Best if they come with the rack for mounting. There is a schematic at <www.soundpractices.com>. Looks like a 12AX7 amplifier, 6SN7 phase inverter, a pair of 6W6 beam powers driving a PP pair of 811s. Has 4 rectifier tubes in the PS.
