Triangle Celius 202 Value

[audiodogster]

I've had a guy offer me a pair of Triangle Celius 202 for my Klipsch La Scala Industrial. The reviews on these things are pretty good but I'm still thinking I want to find some Martin Logan for the setup since it's for mixed use in a huge room and I already have a ML center channel. Any idea on what these are worth? The guy had them listed on eBay for $1500 but I haven't found any other listings to give an idea of value. I know these are supposedly great audiophile speakers but I'm not sure they are up to par for filling out a large room for when I'm using the setup for home theater.

Here's a link to the eBay auction: Note it is already ended: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Triangle-Ce...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Kruipen says average sale price is $812: http://kruipen.com/triangle-celius-202-2.html

La Scala are $1212, probably closer to $1000 if you remove the outliers but mine are in good shape plus have the better K-43 woofer, not sure if or how much that would change the value: http://kruipen.com/klipsch-la-scala-2.html

Not a lot of data points between the two and I don't know hw accurate the numbers are but I'm not looking to pay for Audiogon

$1,500 is a lot for a pair of speakers that retailed for $2k new and were probably available for less near the end of production.

The same could probably be said about the La Scala (though I think they were around $3k when production ended) but I think there's more enthusiasm behind them than almost any other speaker except maybe other Klipsch Heritage models. Also probably does help that the new ones cost $4k each.
