Aura Note - why such low resale?

Since no one on Audiogon ever keeps anything as long as 60 days I can't see how this would be a problem. LOL. A very steep depreciation curve is never a good thing but there are so many factors in determining resale that it is is not always a sign of a bad product. But it could be so proceed with caution. I can think of several components that have gotten some great reviews that I think are very overrated. But remember that we audiophiles are a fickle lot often exhibiting the behavior of lemmings and that things go in and out of fashion very quickly.

I think that it is manufactured by April Audio.They make nice stuff,but the name recognition isn't the same as Krell,Levinson,CJ,Cary...etc.

Also,all-in-one units(think TV with built-in VCR)never hold their value on par with similar seperate components.I have actually auditioned the Aura Note in my office system.It sounded very nice,but ultimately I purchased a tube integrated amp and a dedicated CD player.

Economics 101 , Demand and Supply = increase or decrease in price.
