Resale value of new speakers


I had a house fire.  I lost a pair of excellent, Sound Lab speakers.  The insurance company has given me an allotment of 24,000 (replacement value) for another pair of speakers.  Given the fire, and current finances, I need that 24,000, but must first buy a new pair of speakers, and then sell them, to get the cash.  The insurance company will only reimburse what I pay out for a pair of speakers, up to 24,000, not give me the cash directly.  I plan to buy a pair, keep them in their original boxes, and then resell them.  My 2 questions are:
1. Where are the best places to post such an offer?
2. What speakers would you recommend, to purchase, that would bring in close to their original cost on resale?
Thanks!

Another option is to contact a third party adjuster. This can be a headache BUT, it won't cost you to talk to them. They intercede on your behalf. They also take 35% off the top. That sounds like highway robbery. I used one such company once and I received an additional $5000.00 beyond what my insurance company wanted to settle for. Talking to a lawyer wouldn't be a bad idea either.
