    For me, it's a minor miracle that any audio gear retains the value you purchased it for, let alone actually continuing to increase in value. So, I don't look at purchasing audio gear as an investment and try and make comparisons with the increase in value vice what the same money would have done in the stock market. I do take some comfort in knowing that I will get all of my money back and possibly more down the road if I ever chose to sell a given piece of gear that is actually an appreciating asset, but I'm buying them to listen to.

    Probably anywhere from $7-12k, depending on whether they are factory built or "clones", condition,
    correctness of the system, if anything has been updated, location, and a few other things ...

    This is post is for your amusement, opinion only, and no indication if you ever will find a pristine original 4345 system for dirt cheap ...

    What's the price?

    Those particular stock 4345s have a rich and storied history on these forums.

    Its not just what it is but who's owned it.

    That commands a premium price.

    Probably $15k USD plus shipping for a pair of originals in perfect shape. Slightly more with spare grilles in alternate color.
    Theoretically that is. If they were for sale. Hey, should this thread be in Marketplace???

    It should be in Marketplace IF your theory or hypothesis can be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt via the Scientific Method

    If the sale goes forward, please post a link to a set of high-res photos. I'm sure there is a collector out there you'll eventually find who won't hesitate and will just write a check.
