Magnolia can't find good staff because you can't make a decent living selling audio equipment on a Best Buy salary.
Back in the 90s I worked for a "Mid-Fi A/V retailer" but we also offered a few high end brands, ARC, SF, Martin Logan, Mirage, KEF. Even back then it was a hard sell to our customer base who mostly wanted Bose.
That being said, it wasn't that difficult to make 100K flipping Mitsubishi big screens and Bose Lifestyle systems.
Try making 100K now at a Best Buy Magnolia twenty years later.
