Sell a speaker you like but CANNOT optimize sound?


Has any one considered selling ( or actually sold) a speaker you own (or owned) and liked because you can't seem to optimize the "sound" to your tastes by changing electronics or cables,etc.etc.

PLEASE NOTE:..... I want to note that there are many reasons for selling a high-end speaker such as:... the living space changes, the speaker begins to annoy you and/or wife because of its size and appearance, financial or family considerations, or ....you reluctantly won't admit to yourself, you are just tired of the way it sounds, even after investing time and effort to optimize its sound
quality.

Should make for an interesting discussion!!!

Earlier Alon model, they really worked best with tubes but they were low'ish efficiency and I didn't want to run high powered tube amps. Just couldn't make them sound right with SS amps.
Once I realized (after several years) that, although the speakers were pretty good speakers, they would never sound how I wanted them to, with the SS amplification I was using, and when I decided to look at speakers that fit my listening tastes and the rest of my system better, I (thankfully) moved on and never looked back. It was like a sigh of relief, a fresh breeze and a spring day. Sometimes, you just gotta move on. Good luck figuring out the next step that works for you.
