Why so many Gallo 3 or 3.1 for sale on A'goN?


For a speaker that got rave reviews...there are sure a great number of pair of the Gallo Ref 3 or 3.1 being sold on AudiogoN.....usually with just a few months use. It's not just the ones for sale now...this has been going on for a few months.

Do these speakers just not sound good after a buyer listens for a few months or what?

besides being totally ugly by any standards, they have a soundstage perspective about a foot off the ground- fine if your sitting on the floor to listen. The ads just kill me, making them appear to be three times larger than they really are. David Copperfield could not do a better trick than the add makers have done! Think knee caps people. Build quality is just fine really but there is no pride of ownership with them and I think people just get tired of them and their poor non intagrated slow bass. The reviewers got this one totally wrong and I guarantee these will not stay in production like the better vandersteens etc have. Also nice price hike so that they almost cost as much as the 3a's -great job. I could go on but wont.

Dude, your idea of totally ugly and better souding is amusing to say the least. I owned Vandy 2ce Sigs, they looked like coffins and sounded like there was a blanket thrown over 'em. Took three months to sell them too.

I have no stake one way or the other in Gallo, but I am a very happy owner who uses top drawer gear with them. My ears don't deceive me, and in this case the reviewers aren't wrong.
Hack, I was going to respond but you said it first. The "slow bass" and "soundstage perspective" arguments are especially preposterous. Mine sound exactly the same (from 8 feet away) whether I'm sitting or standing. He obviously hasn't heard them in a well-set-up system. Dave
