  Any opinions on what would be a reasonable price for good condition
R1155.

  Well, it obviously depends on condition. There were a set of post WW
II 'mods' that included removing the DF stuff and putting in an audio
output stage. IMO, that really kills the value. Some sets just removed
some valves to disable the DF stuff.

The sets also have a generic problem. The rubber covered stranded wire
insulation deteriorates and crumbles.

That said, roughly:

NOS unmodified >$500, maybe over $1000 with shock mounts and chest
Clean unmodified  $250+
Average modified $100

Note, the HT (-) is NOT at chassis ground. !!!  Both the FIL and HT
originally came from a dyno  (VERY rare)
