W4's typically go on eBay for $300 or so. The presence of the WA-P2 helps, but not much.
As for the speaker, that's hard to say. It all depends on whether the buyers have a yen
for
the particular speaker components. I've seen rather large speakers like Jensen Imperials
going for as high as $3600. In fact, Jensens in general tend to go for at least $2000.
Hm ... maybe your speaker _IS_ an Imperial; it's a "Klipsch-design."
On the other hand, I got a beautiful example of my long-sought Heath SS-1B, which has the
same speaker components as the Imperial (less midrange) for $100. Go figure.
