I got a trade plus cash [to me] offer for my Domane Classic.

I've been HT Dolby amp-ing it for forever. But lust sometimes for the Fischer 500C tube amp now and again is hard to shake.

The shop office had previous HT/5.1 Sony Receiver for work music. But shop office area is clean and I got room for some tube gear.

Of what was offered to me I might could swap for:

Dynaco ST-70 tube amplifier

Infinite Slope Mod One 3 way speakers

Represented; Amp went thru semi recently. Speakers in proper working good cosmetic condition.

My question is value of each of these.

If I take these with the cash offered. It puts me at 1500.00 trade value for these. [and having ridden the Domane for free for 5 years].

other than googling, love to hear an empirical opinion of amp value .

Just spit balling.

Dynaco amp values are all over the place, depending on the quality of recent service. It can range from just replacing tubes with fresh to completely rebuilding the amp and resetting bias etc. The transformers are special and not usually touched. A really good one is worth a grand, a mere refresh maybe 350.
The speakers? They're ok, but there are cheaper, better sounding options for a garage even, as they're pretty big for that use.
