Top resale value speakers

I sold a 5 year old Magnepan 3.6 for $3,000, I paid $4,100, excellent resale value considering it seems like most used speakers go for about 60% of retail.

Magnepan leads the field in resale value. I don't know of any speaker line that even comes close.

Magnepan speakers have high resale value, especially the MMGs and CC3s.

B&W has very good value. I sold my 6 years and 3 months old Nautilus 802 for E 5200,- including granite plates in the shape of the speaker of 42 kilo. I had many changes to sell them and quick. Avalon is also a brand who still keeps a high price. But I think you have to buy the speaker you like most. Because listening to music for many years with great pleasure is much more important than money.

Whoa there fellas,

You need to reread the posting. He is referring to new speakers not classics. I know Quad ESL-57's demand a high price. But as mentioned the thread was discussing current production speakers.

S7horton,

Maggies are great speakers, but you must admit there are wild fluctuations on their prices. Right now on Agon there are 4 pair of 1.6QR's there is a pair for 900 and a couple for 1200 and I belive a pair for 1400.00. MSRP is 1800.00 I belive. So where does that put the Mean? Throw out the lowest and the highest and you are at 1200.00. At that price they are hardly being snapped up.
