So Many Apogees for sale, and so few takers

There seems to be a plethora of Apogee speakers for sale here on Audiogon lately. I've been regularly searching for used Apogees in my area for the last 2 years, and have seen few if any come up for sale. Yes, I finally snagged a pair of mint Duetta Sig's.

But all of a sudden there are more than several over the last few months, but the ad's seem to linger for a long time. I would think people would jump on these speakers - there are few speakers out there today that can do what these do, regardless of their age.

Signs of a withering economy?
Just a summer slump?

Yes, why wouldn't anyone want monolithc speakers that take up the whole end of the listening room and are so inefficient and reactive that amps almost.....

Viridian, just FYI, the Apogee speakers are not reactive. Ribbons are rarely reactive - they are in fact purely resistive with a resistance that is very low. hence the need for monster amps.
I'm not trying to change your opinion but the wordings in your post tell me that you don't understand the matter. Thus, it might have been better for you to not post & not show your ignorance in such a flaming way....
