I don’t see many 6000s on the used market and I am trying to figure out what
mine is worth if I decide to part with it.
Anyone have an idea?
ICON remote with moving faders, Analog I/O card, 8 I/O digital card, 3 engine,
reverb package, stereo mastering package.

Considering Neve 8816, Mac Ocho, Etc. I have several good reverbs.

I think an openihng asking price of $6k might have been a bit unrealistic
though so it's not surprising that there were no bids.........
.....and this........

Sometimes Ebay is a good indicator of aftermarket value. Then again,
sometimes not....especially high end products. the kind of money that that
thing is worth is a lot of scratch to hand over to someone you don't know
for a product you haven't seen in person and tested. If I'm thinking about
paying more than $2500.00 for a product on EBay. I'm also thinking of a
plane ticket and rental car to wherever it is to test it and take delivery
personally.
Neve 8816eh?. I've been thinking that if I don't get one of these , I will
die.

First let me point out that without a System 6000, you WILL die. It’s the
world’s best effects processor.
When I was in Florida recently, I checked out an 8 core hot-rodded Mac Pro
running DP out trough a pair of Mytek 8X96s into an 8816 with a 5043 across
the 2-bus (I brought the 5043). I went out of my way to hook up with this
system because it is very close to what I have been planning.
I should point out that the reference tracks I heard were exceptional recordings,
but the long and short of it is that from the first few seconds I knew that
if I don't get one of these setups, I will die. Not just the sound, but the
overall power and feature set. It all worked very well and sounded quite
exceptional. This was very reminiscent of my best experiences mixing on large
classic Neve consoles, but with a little more punch and extended response.
Not quite as friendly sounding as tracks coming off a 24/analog deck, but
still quite wonderful. I used no plugins when auditioning the tracks.
A second 8816 would make this pure heaven, but even with 16 channels the
system was rocking. So much so, that I am willing to become an ex-owner of
the worlds best effects processor. Assuming I get close to 6K for the 6K.

PS Thanks for the links.
