Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon

Huff, Kinetic, Yankee.

saw a nobis and a beard

I think in the case of some of these brands (at least the first 3 in the original post) they simply do not produce a lot of gear. They are big ticket, built to order, once in a lifetime purchases.

I don't mean to shanghi this thread, but in regard to the Klyne, is it because there is no market for these units or are they really that rare? I watch out of curiosity since I own the Klyne newest version of the pre-amp. I have not seen any for sale in a long time, just wondering why...

Maybe I should start one of those annoying "Why so few _____ for sale?" posts!?!

Hi, Nrchy:

Stan Klyne lives in the Seattle area, so local audiophiles are perhaps more aware of his designs than other parts of the country. Tim Ratcliffe, owner of Experience Audio here in Seattle, carries Klyne products, and he recently told me that Klyne hasn't built many units recently. Stan is, however, still in the business.
