Why so many B & W Speakers on the used market?


I live outside of the Denver area, so my Facebook Marketplace (among other sites) draws from the Colorado front range cities. So why do I see so many B&W loudspeakers being up for resale? Is it just that Listen Up has been a dealer for decades and the market has sold so many previously? Or is there an inherent problem that wears thin on the listener that they seek something better? I mainly see the 700 series, in different sizes and series, but CM9's etc. I'm just curious b/c I plan on moving to a new house in the next year and want to have a dedicated listening room, hopefully under $10K for the source, amp & speakers. I already have a nice analog set up to incorporate into it.

Brands marketed in big box brick and mortar outlets are ubiquitous on used sites. Search engines are paid in full. If you pay enough you get a nice familiar speaker. But you lose the hook of something people haven't seen, and the expertise of producers who do not participate in the search/review game. If you care.
