Why so many AQ Hurricane PC's for sale?


There must be 15-20 for sale on USAM alone, that seems kinda high. Is there something about them? Are they highly system dependant? I am browsing a good cable to feed a Power conditioner I have on order and saw so many of them for sale while searching.

@vuch assuming your amps are true balanced there probably will be no difference between balanced cables.  I run Cardas Clear XLR interconnects everywhere but between my balanced pre and power amps.  Between the amps I use Mogami XLR.  There is no difference.

I recently sold a couple of Hurricane power cords and interconnects on USAM because I was upgrading, and because I was going back to the OEM cords on the Vandersteen speakers and amp. They were authentic, original box, invoices, etc

And if anybody needs the 20-amp/15-amp versions, I’ve still got a pair.smiley

@marco1 Good to know. Yes they're balanced, NAT Audio Magma M monos coming from NAT Audio Symmetrical Balanced Line Stage.

 

Between AQ and its dealer network, they heavily market their product, which makes for large sales numbers that in turn create larger returns, or dissatisfied customers.  I suspect, though, percentage-wise, no more than some small companies' returns or customers, not getting the performance they hoped for.  I see quite a few Wilson Speakers on the used market.  Just look at this photo of Sasha's from Precision Audio in Chicago, just a couple of miles from me.  I can only imagine what the larger East/West Coast markets must have on the secondary market.
