PS Audio XStream biwire, what are they worth?


I hope this is the right place, I've got a question about the value of some cables that came with a set of used speakers I picked up. They are the XStream biwire, 4.0m, pair of them. The guy said he spent $1700 new, which looks about right. I don't need massive cables and would like to know if they are worth selling or not.

If they are worth under $500, it probably isn't worth it for me to sell them.

Thanks guys.

I love poker, but I hate high-priced cables. They never justify their performance per price and only designed to 'trim' your wallet size. There's never been anyany successfull blind A/B test vs. zip cord with anyone so selling them and getting cheaper wire will save you money and won't affect performance.
Schubert, no worries, you can get it next year used for $600 if you have'em spare(I don't even have that much for it and stuck with stock:)).
Mapman, I'm sceptic if my pro-grade DAC/preamp Mytek will benefit from aftermarket PC as well as class T Sunfire 300 amplifier.
PC designed by Bob Carver for it with no neutral recepticle less-likely can be replaced by aftermarket PC.
Furman power box I use provides both: noise filtering and protection...
