I have a chance to buy some speakers...

[mrjbq]

Please help me value the speakers. EPI M100. The condition is excellent. Just a little oil on the the veneer and they will be beautiful. So what are they worth?
Thanks

well regarded with the inverted dome, while I am not familiar with their worth, still I think that $80 to $100 would be fair if they are in great shape. much less with any damage to the cabinets ETC..

I agree, I picked up my 100Vs (very similar) for about that price. An excellent bookshelf that pairs up well with vintage receivers.

I run mine on a Pioneer SX-838 and they are "oh so smoooth".

You'll like those!

Agree to both previous posters... if there is no damage to the cabinets, $100 is a good price to pay.
And you'll love them!

M100's are (IMHO) worth a bit more than 100V's as they veneered in wood rather than vinyl. I sold my last pair of Epicure M100's for $125 here on Barter Town and could have likely gotten $200 or so on eBay.

Dave , you can have them back anytime you'd like.

Plus they are super easy to recap - they are the first ones I ever tried and it worked swimmingly.

Hmmm those are some nice EPI's, I'd snag them in a heartbeat. You'll love the soundstage, they are truly wonderful speakers. If you ever get tired they are easy to sell, although I can't seem to sell any of mine hehe

Well, I picked them up for a "Jackson."
They're pretty nice, but I really don't need them.
They could not possibly replace my JBLs.
I'll listen for a while then maybe move them along.....

Depends on your JBLs and your musical tastes. I love my JBLS, all 11 of 'em, but a recapped set of EPIs can be a more relaxing listen at times. No "fake but fun" L100 style west coast sound, just immensely musical.

Nah, I've got another pair and a set of 500's.

Spend $10 to recap them, listen for a while, and I'd be very, very surprised if you let them go. :yes:
