If you can afford to buy them new, then buy them new. This seems easy to me.
I think the more important question to ask yourself is why you posted about speakers in the amp/preamp section.
I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do?
two issues here, would it be smarter to buy the used speakers not knowing where they’ve been or how hard they’ve been played or maybe there’s something wrong with them. And the other issue is what happens to the value of my speakers immediately after the box comes to my house. And I guess the third issue is, amI insane for buying $50,000 speakers.
It seems like I’ll be losing $20,000 immediately and of course probably a little more since if I ever sell they will need to be reduced further so used price can be 30,000 if a dealer is involved which they probably will be.
This raises a serious concern that very nice speakers are just too expensive.
Fortunately (and luckily) I’m not married so that makes this process a lot easier
@phusis Only rich and dumb cowboy will spend $50,000.00 on a pair of speakers without any knowledge and experience, not to mention that he is asking total strangers for an advise. |
@jpan , I used to wonder about this myself, but finally I just grew to accept it. There was another member who went by @jumia who used to do the same thing (posted about everything in amps/preamps). |
@tannoy56 ”…Do you realize that most of the opinions you’ve got is from members whose entire system cost less than that, and they should be asking you for an advise instead.”
Oh, I think you would be surprised how many folks here have good systems. You might take a walk through the virtual systems section of the forum.
