I seem to see a lot of Transparent Audio stuff on the market. Don't know if people were trying it out and not happy with the cost/reward or if there's just so much of it out there that you're just going to naturally see more of it.
Why a dearth of some brands on the used market?
Hi All -
I’ve been looking for some of the higher end Cardas power cables on the used market for the past few months. I’ve been pretty surprised how rarely I see them come up for sale. On the other hand, I’ve seen some brands being sold at a much higher frequency. I’ve also noticed that the less expensive Purist stuff seems to also almost never come up…
I realize the above is a broad blanket statement, so I’ll repose it this way. What are you all looking for, seemingly in vain (or so it seems from the wait time!), for a used item to come up in your desired price range?

great post @bluethinker I run a lot of searches and have a pretty good idea. I know what's hard to find that I looked for, and I also looked at each company's revenue to be able to weight things. I didn't do a spreadsheet so these are my impressions: Cambridge Audio, NAD, Rotel, Parasound, Bryston - lots of good deals Jolida - lots of on the used market Hegel - very rigid price-wise Similar story for the speakers, Klipsch, JBL, older B&W models everywhere.

LARSEN 9 speakers the reviews are intriguing but have only a very limited NA distribution and availability for this Swedish design and build floorstander . based on the tech news and reviews , they may be a potential fix for crummy room issues because they are designed to be placed up against the walls. https://www.soundstageaustralia.com/index.php/reviews/488-larsen-9-loudspeakers https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/larsen-model-9-loudspeaker/
