Spectral Audio DMC 10 Quality
The price of the DMC-10 in the bluebook is between $850 and $1,050 depending on the version. It would be worth paying for an Audiogon Insider account if that would convince the insurance company. https://www.audiogon.com/learn/insider |
Ah! The Blue book. That’s what I’m needing I suspect. I just hope the insurance company will respect the Blue Book pricing. One of the issues I’m facing is that my insurance company considers my equipment “obsolete.” They suggested the Pyle Pro would be even “more advanced” because “modern technology.” They likened it to a computer from the 80s that might have cost $2000 new but only had the capabilities of a $10 calculator available today 😣 They’re just missing the point completely I’m still unsure of how to convince them that this machine is high quality and not comparable to a Walmart purchase but perhaps the Blue Book will help 🤔 Thank you both for the feedback |
I hate to say it but many times with insurance claim you may benefit from a claims legal consultant. However if this is the only thing being claimed it wouldn’t be worth it. When an insurance company knows you have legal representation they become more accommodating. Insurance companies know how to find the value of items but many times they will not pursue it unless you force the issue. You can also find where an item like yours has sold and for how much. Along with the audiogon bluebook. |
you are being taken advantage of. if you have a standard policy of actual cash value the co. owe you the price of Spectral pre. at the current used value not some item of a lesser brand..if you have replacement cost they owe you at least the least expensive spectral new pre.amp.. two decades supervising claims tell me the above is correct. |
