Sold speakers you really enjoyed?... But why?

Has anyone ever sold speakers you "really" liked for various reasons. Many members may rightfully respond".... are you crazy after all the looking and comparing" However such a rote answer, does not answer the thread

Why did you sell them?? 1)You needed the money?? 2)Were moving a long distance? 3)Too big (or small) for the new living space?? 4)Just wanted to own a speaker that was newer, different and sounded better??

Unfortunately I will have to dealer with reasons 2 and 3 in the a few months. Nevertheless, I could sell them local and buy the same when I am settled

However, the more interesting and provocative reason for this thread is #4....the itch, bug, jonesing for something "new", and possibly "better" in sound quality.

All opinions, comments, real life stories welcomed!!!

That was vintage JBL 4912 powered by H.H.Scott Stereomaster vintage stereo tube receiver(2xEL84 per channel).
The reason was to save them all from toddlers. The minute I recall that day, I'm ready to pull hair from my arz in anger, but had to build a budget for SS/heavier speaker based system.

I swapped to Aerial 10T with substantially wider footprint so it takes guts to flip-em over. Sunfire 300 amp/Classe 30 preamp replaced Stereomaster.
