A friend of mine was executor in estate. She needs help selling these beautiful items. Please give me approximate prices for the value of these items. We are in NORCAL in Mt. Shasta. Neither of us are audiophiles so are lost. Any help is appreciated, thank you very much

I don't know their values. However, search Google for McIntosh dealers and call one in your area. Ask for price suggestions. Call Von Schweikert's phone number on the website.

No numbers, but I suggest you check Audiogon classifieds and US Audio Mart classifieds. Keep in mind a seller can ask any price and it might be reasonable or not. If you can find the same items listed by more than one seller you will get a better idea of value used IMO.

Audio Classics sold to me a Mcintosh MA 6900 for $3000 in mint condition with one year warranty about 3 years ago. Many ,many sellers of Mac equipment over price there gear. If I was to buy another one I'd have to get it in mint or n-mint for $2500-$2600. To me the warranty and the fact Audio Classics goes thru very piece of gear is well worth the $400-$500 higher price.
Phone for Audio Classics is 800 321 2834.

For $10 you can get one month's access to the Audiogon Blue Book which will give you historical sale prices on gear they've listed. This will help you hone in on typical selling prices over time. Can't guarantee they will have exactly the pieces you are selling, but as one of, if not the largest sites for used audio gear, it's a useful guide. In my very uninformed opinion, VR33s should fetch around $2k, depending on condition, but that quote is worth exactly what you paid for it. For $10 you can get a more reliable estimate. Good luck.
