The main reason? A well-known fact to people inside the industry: By not offering a transferable warranty, you discourage resale, and encourage more people to buy new, thus producing more sales for your dealers and for you. Crank 'em out, move 'em, and make more.
Sorry, but I think it's a reprehensible and disgusting display of ultimate capitalism, especially on multi-thousand dollars items. I personally wish it would backfire on all of them and make them lose rather than gain sales. Too bad Bryston's products aren't at the cutting edge of sound quality, or I'd support such a company by buying their products. Kudos to them for this integrity and care, lacking from the majority of the others.
