Probably because secondhand audio is generally vastly outperformed
by
more recent and inexpensive gear.

I don't believe it is, once you get past the lowest quality (toy)
items
and 'classic' stuff (old Tannoys, for example) still makes good money.

Old Tannoys stink !

They do?

Yes.


If that's your idea of 'good sound' you must have stopped
auditioning decent hi-fi over 30 years ago.

Don't beat me up - I ain't the one buying them!

They are laughable.

Better tell the Japs, then - they've been buying them up for decades!!

The Japs have weird hearing. That's why Yamaha set up an R&D lab in London which
I was actually invited to join some 30 yrs ago.
