Enthusiasts have no problem paying big money for Harbeths ( or dealers charging big money for them) in 2018. I don't see how this is any different. There's obviously a market for vintage gear or at least gear with the vintage look ( Luxman, Leben, Klipsch, etc.). I've never heard the L100s, but in a sea of narrow baffle home theater boxes, it's nice to see a retake on a classic.
