Good morning! So I’ve decided to sell my CS3.7s because I don’t have the capital to spend on a more powerful amp, new preamp, or integrated amp. And I’m happy enough right now with my recently recapped ‘78 Sansui G7500 system. The oak cabinets are in great shape and speakers are as well. How much could I expect to get for my set? Thanks!

I would estimate around the 5-6k range.

Oops, my bad…meant to type CS3.6, not 3.7. Sorry about that! 🤪

Hello All! A long time lurker chiming in for the first time.
I’m wondering if anyone here has experience tweaking the PCSs. Ever since one of my 3.5s lost a mid, I’ve been listening to a pair of PCSs that I inherited from my father at his death a few years ago. The set was pretty badly damaged in the mails, (original shipping boxes were long gone) and I lovingly restored the distressed boxes while our friend Rob Gillum reviewed the drivers and replaced the shot tweeters. I wanted to restore them in honor of my dad. Although they obviously can’t and don’t stand in for 3.5s, I live in an NYC apartment and I was rarely able to make use of the full range of the 3.5s. Of course I’m thrilled to hear that there might be a Renaissance package in the offing, and plan to take full advantage of it when it arrives, I’m wondering if anyone here has PCSs and has ventured to tweak them, as I have found that they are brilliant in the near-field arrangement that my living conditions lend itself to, and wonder if they might be further optimized.

In any case, this forum has been a real treasure for me, and I’d like to personally thank you all for your shared enthusiasm and research. I hope it goes on forever!

Welcome! The 3.6 speaker is worth around $1500. 

Happy Listening!
