The fact that the SS K90ED speakers are still in such demand is a testament to their enduring value.

_mykl- I'm just glad to know that your fantastic collection of Sony SSK speakers is still in tact even if you 'only' have 8 left.

There's also a mint TA-E1 on eBay it's in the UK. The seller wants $9k GBP almost $14K USD. That's considerably more than it sold for new. Item #120788765338. I'll be interested to see what happens with it._mykl

_mykl- Please don't scare us like that! When I read the title of this thread I thought for a moment that you might be selling off some of your now legendary collection of Sony SSK speakers and then I felt the ground shake as though to signifying that a paradigm had shifted and I was much relieved to find out that you found the SSK speakers in an eBay auction.

Nope not mine. But I am down to eight from my original ten as I sold off a pair awhile back. If I make my planned upgrade to my mains I'm not sure what I'll do then though. Space restrictions in the house and no point in storing them in an un-climate controlled garage. Vegas' weather would just ruin them._mykl

_mykl- I found it interesting that the reserve price on these SS K90EDs is about what you paid for most of the SS K90EDs that you bought years ago which qualifies these Sony speakers as a very good long term investment.

I paid $99.99 NIB each for most of mine but I did get a couple for even less. That starting price is for the pair. I'm not sure what the reserve is. But IIRC every used pair I've seen for sale over the past few years, which isn't many, have sold for more than I paid. For those of us that got them new at closeout it has indeed been a good investment. I still haven't seen a $100 NIB speaker that can remotely come close to the SS-K90ED._mykl

With a starting bid of $100 who knows how high the bidding could go on these SS K90ED speakers. eBay has nothing listed under completed items which may serve to stimulate demand for these fine sounding Sony speakers.

There's only been one bid on those K90s for $100. reserve not met with less than a day left. There's another pair on there now as well. Item #220916089317. I can't remember seeing two pairs for sale at the same time. He wants $399 for them which is twice what I paid for mine NIB._mykl

My guess is that it's gonna be a dogfight in the last few seconds.

One person bid and didn't get over a hundred dollars. Maybe re-list 'em w/better pics an a better description. The line "Sony discontinued SS line long back after its futile attempt to get into audiophile quality speakers." probly didn't help.
I wonder what the actual reserve was?

I agree completely. That second set for $399 seems in great shape except for a few snags at the bottom of the grilles. I'm curious to see if anyone pops for them._mykl

Is this some indication that you might possibly be interested in acquiring a pair of SS K90ED speakers?

This pair finally sold for $250.00. That's still $50 more than I paid for mine NIB._mykl

Back in the day who would have thought that the SS-K90EDs would be selling for $350 BIN in 2012?

In case anyone's interested, there's another pair of SS-K90EDs for sale on eBay right now. $350 BIN. That's almost twice what I paid for mine NIB. If I sell any more of mine I think I need to ask for more money. _mykl

Well the seller has left the BIN the same but has started an auction too. Starting bid $209.00. I just noticed that in the ad there's no pics or mention of the speakers' plinths._mykl

You certainly did acquire your collection of SS K90ED speakers at some amazingly low prices for your massive DA9000ES based Home Theater!
