No recent market data, listings, or user-reported prices for Centre Industries / Trimax Type 3 Mono Amplifiers (vintage Australian hi-fi monoblock power amplifiers, likely ~18W Class-A from the 1950s-1960s, originally from ABC studios) appear in available search results, preventing a reliable fair AUD market price estimate.
Comparable high-end vintage or reference dual-mono Class-A power amplifiers list at A$60,000 per pair (new or pristine condition), but these are unrelated modern products and far exceed typical values for 50+ year-old studio gear like Trimax.
Key limitations and factors:
- Absence of data: No eBay, Gumtree, StereoNET classifieds, or forum sales post-2008 for this exact model; oldest reference is a 2008 user audition report.
- Condition variability: Prices would vary significantly—new/mint unused (rare) could command premiums; used/excellent ~50-70% of peak; fair/poor (common for tube/valve amps with rectification) ~20-40%, factoring restoration needs.
- Value influencers: Rarity (studio surplus), originality (schematics/manuals available), working valves/rectification, power output (~18W), and hi-fi collector demand; similar vintage mono amps often sell AUD 1,000-5,000/pair used if functional (inferred from genre, not direct listings).
For accurate pricing, check current Australian sites like StereoNET classifieds or eBay.au, as values fluctuate with condition and market interest.
