Thanks for no help.

Anyone know how much these are worth? They aren't exactly floating around on ebay and the forums all day considering they are about 20 years old. I did search, obviously. I was wondering if anyone had been keeping track of these, and could give me a low end estimate of what they would be worth.

Please don't ask me to do research on them when I have, and that is why I am here.

M series came first, then the AM, followed by the Art and Power Class.
Are you asking the total value of all those amps or how much they are worth individually?
In order to make a guess on value, you will need to know if they are in functioning order with the all important speaker harnesses, what kind of cosmetic condition and have any mods or repairs been done to the amps? Also, are they white or black?
As an example, 2150's in very nice condition and fully functional seem to sell for $125-$175 on Ebay. But, there is no guarantee of price.

2 x 150W @ 4 ohms (12V - 0.02% THD)
2 x 300W @ 2 ohms (12V)

Not sure if he meant 2150m, or am, but those are the specs for the M.

If that 2300am is in "good" condition then I could see it being worth close to $350 shipped.

I wasn't suggesting they weren't on the same level as the Art Series, just that they aren't worth as much to people. I've owned a number of Art Series amps, they're nice, but nothing unusual in my opinion. I sold 2 of them a while back, an A200 (I bought new in 1993) and A600.2 (I bought new in 1997, just after the PC series came out)

I remember upgrading my "2075am" to a a600 when it first came out...SQ was similar. Cool factor went way up....:D

But now if someone offered me a mint 2075am i would take it over a a300.2

There are all kinds of collectors of all sorts of stuff, so as in art or whatever, "beauty" is in the eye of the beholder.
So there are certain amps, from certain series, that can and do command some serious money, buy it depends on condition
and who is buying etc.

I personally think the latter generations of PPI amps were very tasty, but there are NOW options that perform better in many
ways, and the value of new offerings can be considered better. Back in the old-school days, not much on-board processing,
but the amps DID sound good (esp vs. typical cheap amps that most brands try to sell today).

When I ask "how much would all of these be worth" that means as a whole, a set, all together. I know not everyone has good reading comprehension, but try harder. These amps are worth more than $50-$300 in fair condition.

I know people like to talk down to the guy with less posts than everyone else, and I understand that. I think I asked a pretty basic question, and got shot down, talked down, and bsed to the entire time.

"They're worth what someone would pay" No ****? Really? Why the **** didn't I think of that? Maybe I looked on ebay, and couldn't find any prices of the amps being sold. NONE ZERO. I said a couple posts later in fair-good condition. I would theing these in Fair-good condition these are worth ~650$

I'm not a ppi expert, and most of you aren't either. Most of you are just noobs it appears in this thread talking out your ass, and down on a member with fewer posts. LMAO telling me how straight forward and direct members are on this forum. Again, LMAO.

Ran out of meds? Dont have such an inferiority complex.
If you are having a hard time with addition, I will help you out one last time, then you are on your own. $50x4 amps = $200. $300x4 amps = $1200. Collectively they are worth $200 to $1200. Now rethink your strategy when you ask questions like that.

In FAIR condition?

Well then I'm going to revise the prices I suggested earlier:

Earlier prices I listed:

2075AM 2X75 = $100

4200AM 4X50 = $125

2300AM 2X300 = $225

2150AM 2X150 = $175

total = $625

New "fair condition" prices:


2075AM 2X75 = $50

4200AM 4X50 = $75

2300AM 2X300 = $150

2150AM 2X150 = $100

total = >$400

If they are better than fair, but worse than nice, well then somewhere in between the two figures.
