A very popular brand & model, your best bet is to search completed/Sold listings on the Bay find ones that match your description and then subtract out shipping costs and about 15 to 20 percent for fees.
After that be sure to set your expectations for what your local market might bear as opposed to what one might sell for in a major metro area such as L.A, Chicago etc;
Let us know what you find out and what you decide to list it for.

Been several on SF Bay Area CL for a while. A very nice looking one (like yours) has been at $1500 for some time but it does not mention that it has been updated in any way, just nice original.
Sadly the punters on CL want everything restored and you to give it to them. Thats why I have been leaving nice original units alone if I am going to sell them as its tough to get your money back.
Gear I plan on keeping gets updated and added to the collection for my own piece of mind.
Not much selling right now as the price of everything is going up and fun money is being reallocated. Just my experience recently.

You can also check sold/expired listings on HiFi Shark https://www.hifishark.com/model/sansui-9090 . I sold a 9090db that needed repairs (one channel was out as I recall) three years ago for $400. I probably could have sold it for a bit more, but I based my price on sold eBay listings and a formula similar to Dswankey's suggestion. Prices have gone up since then. With your location, you could probably tap into the Houston, Austin and perhaps DFW markets. I still get nostalgic for mine from time to time.
In order to get the highest dollar going to something like eBay with a large following is the way to go. There is of course downsides in this as one can imagine.
If going local that is up to you to investigate the time on V sale. You need to know how much you figure is the investment so far.
The problem with selling a restored unit. The buyers either love it and willing pay or use it to adjust the price.
Questioning the parts, expertise workmanship.....all to lower price.
Whatever you decide on price be patient.

I knew guys that swore by international shipping on the bay to get the bux. And this was over a decade ago.
It's still that way even more so. Especially Asian Buyers.
I had one I paid $10 for and sold it for $275 twelve years ago. Who new people were going to loose their minds.
I still have a Yamaha CR 2040 that I thought was superior.

The OP is talking about a rebuilt/restored unit.
