Pair Sony SS-MB350H 3-Way Stereo Bookshelf Speakers – 120W 8 Ohm Home Audio
SEO-Rich Description
Pair of Sony SS-MB350H 3-way stereo speakers in black cabinets with removable cloth grilles and Sony badges. The factory label identifies these as magnetically shielded, 8-ohm speakers rated for a maximum input power of 120 watts each. These substantial bookshelf speakers are suitable for vintage stereo, home audio or home-theater systems.
The pair shows visible cosmetic wear, dust and spotting to the grille cloth consistent with previous use. Operational condition should be stated as untested unless they have been connected to a receiver and verified.
Model: SS-MB350H
Type: 3-way bookshelf/stereo speakers
Impedance: 8 ohms
Maximum input: 120W
Quantity: Pair / 2 speakers
Made in: China
Measurements each: _____" H × _____" W × _____" D
Condition: Pre-owned with cosmetic wear; _____ [tested working / untested].
Current Sold Comps
There is surprisingly good recent sales evidence for this exact model. A pair sold for $175, another pair for $174.99, and another for $164.99.
More importantly for a Southeast auction, a tested pair located in Naples, Florida sold July 17, 2026 for $143.99. There is also a much lower recent sold result at $31.20, demonstrating that condition, testing, presentation and selling venue can produce a wide range.
Estate Auction Value
For your pictured pair, I would estimate $60–$100 at a local estate auction if untested. If you test both speakers and confirm that all drivers operate cleanly, I'd estimate approximately $80–$125, with upside if two audio bidders compete.
The online sold prices approaching $145–$175 shouldn't automatically be used as the expected local hammer price because online sellers have a much larger national buyer pool and may include shipping in the economics of the sale.
Best Categories
Electronics → Home Audio → Speakers is the strongest primary category. Also use Electronics → Stereo Equipment, Vintage Electronics, and Home Theater / Audio Equipment if EstateSales.org permits secondary categories.
SEO keywords: Sony SS-MB350H speakers, Sony 3 way speakers, 120 watt speakers, 8 ohm speakers, bookshelf speakers, stereo speakers, home audio, vintage Sony audio, pair Sony speakers
Additional Photos to Add
Your factory-label photo is excellent and should definitely be included. I would add one photo with both grilles removed showing all drivers, close-ups of each woofer/tweeter to document cone and surround condition, rear views of both cabinets showing terminals, close-ups of the speaker terminals, and photos of the tops and cabinet corners.
Most important: remove the grilles for the next photos. Audio buyers will want to see the actual drivers before bidding, and those photographs plus confirmation that both speakers have been tested and all drivers produce sound could materially improve bidding.

Vintage 1989 JVC TD-W801 Stereo Double Cassette Deck – Dual Auto Reverse High-Speed Dubbing
SEO-Rich Description
Vintage JVC TD-W801 Stereo Double Cassette Deck, dating to approximately 1989. This full-size home audio component features dual auto-reverse cassette wells, recording/playback capability, synchronized/high-speed dubbing, Dolby B/C noise reduction, tape counters, peak-level display, headphone jack and stereo RCA connections. Published specifications identify the TD-W801 as a 4-track, 2-channel deck capable of handling Type I, CrO2 and Metal tapes.
A desirable component for a 1980s/1990s vintage stereo system, cassette collection or analog audio setup. The photographed unit shows normal cosmetic wear and dust from age/use.
Model: JVC TD-W801
Year: Circa 1989
Type: Stereo double cassette deck
Features: Dual auto reverse, record/playback, synchronized dubbing, high-speed dubbing, Dolby B/C
Color: Black
Measurements: _____" W × _____" H × _____" D
Operational condition: _____ [Tested working / Powers on only / Untested]
Note: Receiver shown above the cassette deck is not included unless specifically stated.
Sold Comps & Auction Value
I found a particularly useful current sold comp: a JVC TD-W801 described as fully tested and working sold for $125.
For Southeast evidence, an older Salisbury, North Carolina example in very good working condition ended at approximately $81, while another sold listing originated in Keystone Heights, Florida. A current parts/nonworking example in Forsyth, Georgia is being offered at about $30, illustrating the large condition premium on functioning cassette equipment.
For an EstateSales.org auction, I would use an expected range of approximately $50–$90 if fully tested and both decks work properly. If only power-on is confirmed, $30–$60 is more realistic; completely untested, approximately $20–$45. A particularly clean, fully functional example could go higher given the $125 online sold result.
Best Categories
Primary: Electronics → Vintage Electronics / Home Audio. Secondary categories: Stereo Equipment, Cassette Players & Recorders, and Vintage Audio Equipment.
SEO keywords: JVC TD-W801, vintage cassette deck, dual cassette deck, double cassette player, auto reverse cassette deck, high speed dubbing, Dolby cassette deck, vintage JVC stereo, 1980s audio equipment, analog stereo
Additional Photos Needed
Your front photos establish the model well. I would add a clear rear-panel photo showing the RCA connections and factory model/serial label, a straight-on front photo outside the cabinet, a top/cabinet-condition photo, both cassette doors open, and a photo with the unit powered on.
Testing will make the biggest difference to bidding. Put a cassette in both Deck 1 and Deck 2 and verify play, fast-forward, rewind and auto-reverse. If possible, also verify recording/dubbing. Then use “TESTED WORKING – BOTH DECKS” in the title; that is considerably stronger than simply saying it powers on.
The upper component is an Onkyo TX-SR805 THX Ultra2 Plus 7.1-channel A/V receiver. I would list it separately from the JVC cassette deck.
