Snell speakers kIII and type d


I just recently helped and older couple move into a smaller home and the older gentlemen was going crazy about these speakers and how great they were. All I really knew about them were that they were so heavy!! Well by the time we were done and they didn't have money to give me( which I didn't expect.... At all) but insisted I take this whole set, which I tried to deny multiple times because all he did was praise them. But he wouldnt let me leave without them!!! He says he doesn't have the room nor the ears for them anymore. I have 2 type d and 2 kiii along with sub550 and rotell surround sound

So 1....just curious about what's so great about these speakers and do people even enjoy them anymore?
And 2.... how much could I get for them if I wanted to sell them invidually and/or all together

The K IIIs are solid little speakers, still largely based on the original Peter Snell design (which is what Audio Note has based their entire K series on).  Likely in need of refoaming at this point.  I don't think you will get a ton for them, go ahead and google to see what others are getting--but don't necessarily buy into what some of the folks on eBay think their stuff is worth.  I have never heard the D's (used to own C IVs) but I again, they are close to the original design which is the one you want.  The Rotel is only worth something if it has HDMI inputs and outputs.

So as is what do you think I could get for them. I tried to Google them and don't see much. For the whole thing and I mean on the low side because they are taking up space and we're free
