Why so many Gallo 3 or 3.1 for sale on A'goN?


For a speaker that got rave reviews...there are sure a great number of pair of the Gallo Ref 3 or 3.1 being sold on AudiogoN.....usually with just a few months use. It's not just the ones for sale now...this has been going on for a few months.

Do these speakers just not sound good after a buyer listens for a few months or what?

With the exception of the self-righteousness in a couple of posts, thanks to most for your thoughts.
Don't ask the question if you don't want the truth.

Or, ask a more specific question based on your personal listening experiences. Your original question was superficial and offered no insight into your research into the Gallos. On this site, the info you recieve is only as good as the info you provide, and the quality of the question you ask.

Nothing personal. It's just the nature of the beast.
"Don't as the question if you don't want the truth"...

"your original question was superficial"....

"on this site, the info you receive...etc."

Sorry, self-righteousness..may be a bit of an understatement.

But you are correct, I guess I could have given more info. But I didn't know you were in charge of what is, or is not, the correct way to ask/answer a question on Audiogon. I've only been on here since the beginning.

Perhaps AudiogoN could make you the "thread hall monitor"?

Never claimed to be, but some questions indicate the need for some guidance.

Then you should know as well as anyone that general questions elicit general responses.

I'll gladly accept the nomination if it helps users to ask more effective questions.

"Why are so many X for sale?" is not an effective question. Why? Because if owners dislike their item, they are not going to tell the truth, in order to maintain re-sale. Manufacturers and dealers are not going to tell the truth if a new and improved product is in the pipeline or they need to reduce inventory to make room for new stock, thus prompting dumping of the item in question. Perhaps some Gallo owners are moving on simply for personal listening preferences.

What more do you need to know? Haven't you been around long enough to be able to answer your own question?
Whatjd, you have a long history of intelligent posts. You get the point.

I'll bow out now.
