Only those who care little about money can afford to buy something that loses equity at such a massive rate as high end audio. Thus not much interest in heavily discounted but still greatly over priced high end kit. Today most are cash strapped and 1000s in easily spent income is just not available. I have friends who sell motorcycles they say the market for anything over 4k is near gone and most want 1500-2500 used MC. With used audio I notice the same under 3k might sell over good luck.
Nature of the current used speaker market
What do you think of the current market for used speakers above the $6,000 price point? It seems to me like the market is soft, really soft, since I keep seeing the same speakers posted for sale over and over again by the same seller. And these are top flight speakers from solid manufacturers such as Focal, B&W, Rockport, Sonus Faber, etc. Does this mean the number of audiophiles and audio enthusiasts is on the wane, or is there just a glut of used speakers for sale out there?
