Buying advice

Looking at a model 1060 for $500. Is this a reasonable price?

The Mods want price discussions to take place in the Dollars and Sense forum. But, IMO, a 1060 is only worth that much if in excellent physical condition and already completely restored.

If the condition is mint (and I mean MINT) and the unit has been completely serviced (way more than just control cleaning) then maybe. Otherwise $3-400 is probably more reasonable. Add $100-150 for a wood case.

30 watt per channel integrated amps, assuming this was in the marantz forum and it is a marantz amp usually go for a buck or two a watt for non-Pio/Mar/Sui brands but the recent marantz sales have been in the 10 bucks a watt range so that 300 is right for someone that wants a marantz.

$300-350 for unrestored and working. $500-650 for restored depending what was done. If it's been restored, and they didn't do the main caps or the small signal transistors, don't bother.
