I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do?


two issues here, would it be smarter to buy the used speakers not knowing where they’ve been or how hard they’ve been played or maybe there’s something wrong with them. And the other issue is what happens to the value of my speakers immediately after the box comes to my house. And I guess the third issue is, amI insane for buying $50,000 speakers.

It seems like I’ll be losing $20,000 immediately and of course probably a little more since if I ever sell they will need to be reduced further so used price can be 30,000 if a dealer is involved which they probably will be.

This raises a serious concern that very nice speakers are just too expensive.

Fortunately (and luckily) I’m not married so that makes this process a lot easier

I have bought almost all of my speakers used I made a trip throughout the United States and listened to them .for the ones I got cold sight unseen I go to reputable  dealers like the music room upscale audio crutchfield that have a return policy .the problem I have is fed ex put thier forklift through my wilson maxx and that's sad they still have not paid. Enjoy the music.if your old is worth extra cash then do it you worked hard for it .I fiberoptic scope patients  who want to be at peace  just knowing they don't have cancer.to them it is worth it.stay healthy

I love the responses to these questions they make me laugh and I find humor.alot of medical literature is full of laughter helps the immune system .keep safe and healthy.

There are aps you can download on your phone that will map dB and frequency across the whole frequency range if you don't trust your ears.it will let you know if there is a deficiency.  Dont worry about 10 speakers  there like your kids hard to let leave the nest .people collect alot of things cars,boats,art ect a hobby is good for the brain it keeps it active.music calms the beast in all of us.enjoy the music and life.kee us posted as to what you do some of us live vicariously. Thx
