Why is there so much Rowland gear for sale?

I have owned a 1987 Harley Davidson Lowrider and a 1940
Indian Chief. No comparison. I have heard the Rowland 302
amplifier with the Meitner preamp and the Avalon Eidolon,
with both the Spectral frontend and the Ayre frontend.
It was an excellent sounding setup, whether the Rowland
made it better I could not say, but the owner likes it
better than the Rowland 10 or 12 which were in the system
previously.

Asa- an Indian (pre1953) are way cooler than a new Harley;
a mint 1940 Indian Four will set you back $60,000. A mint
1940 Indian Chief, side valve, suicide shifter, and all
will set you back $30-40,000. A modern Harley or Indian, I do not think I would own one now.
