In Reply to: A large number of Harbeth 40.2 40th Anniversary editions being resold on the used market? posted by SHR66 on February 14, 2020 at 19:30:24:
-- and tastes change quickly.Loudspeakers are probably the last bastion of any real idiosyncrasy (and I mean that in a good way, not a pejorative way) in hifi design -- and sound.
The fashion today won't be the fashion tomorrow. Check the resale value of anyone's modern "5 figure" loudspeakers. As an aside, this is a big benefit for those who are happy to buy 'slightly used' (one to a few years old) luxury loudspeakers.
It's certainly possible that speculators bought some (many?) of the 'special edition' Harbeths, too. How are the prices on the used market?All just speculation on my part, of course -- not utterly uninformed speculation, though. ;)
all the best,
