What does a used Sequential Prophet-6 typically sell for?
Used Sequential Prophet-6 units have traded around £1,851 (£1,842-£1,864) based on recent Reverb sold listings. Trading on this model is thinner, so day-to-day variation in the recorded average tends to reflect Reverb's rolling sample more than active market movement. The chart shows where the price has settled rather than where it's heading right now.
Units in better condition or with original packaging tend to sell at the higher end of the range, while heavily used examples sell for less.
The Sequential Prophet-6 retains its value among synth enthusiasts and producers, with collectors and long-term owners driving most trades.
The Sequential Prophet-6 is the spiritual successor to the legendary Prophet-5, designed by Dave Smith — the same engineer behind the original. It distills the essence of classic Prophet tone into a modern, reliable instrument with all-analog signal path and vintage-style true stereo effects.
The sound is pure Prophet: rich oscillators, the distinctive 4-pole low-pass filter, and that unmistakable warmth that defined the 1970s and 80s. Two VCOs per voice provide saw, pulse (with width modulation), and triangle waves, plus a square sub oscillator. Pulse width modulation, hard sync, and oscillator slop add movement and vintage character.
What separates the Prophet-6 from its ancestor is practicality. Preset memory stores 500 sounds. The 64-step polyphonic sequencer captures performances with motion recording. True stereo BBD (bucket-brigade) effects — chorus, phaser, delay — and digital reverb add dimension while preserving analog authenticity.
The build quality is professional-grade with a steel chassis, real wood end cheeks, and a semi-weighted keybed with aftertouch. It's stage-ready and studio-capable in equal measure.
Who Is This For?
The Prophet-6 suits purists who want authentic analog polyphony with modern convenience:
- Professional keyboardists needing stage-ready vintage sounds
- Studio producers wanting the classic Prophet in productions
- Analog enthusiasts who appreciate VCO-based sound without vintage reliability concerns
- Sound designers working with organic, warm analog textures
- Synthesizer collectors adding a modern classic to their setup
For more voices, consider the Prophet Rev2. For the purest Prophet-5 recreation, look at the Prophet-5 reissue. The Prophet-6 offers the ideal balance of vintage character and modern features.
