Free in-home testing?

Looking for recommendations on brands that have some type of free in-home testing and return

I'm aware of SVS and their policy so they are under consideration

Showrooms near me are getting harder to come by with my only options being Magnolia at Best Buy and World Wide Stereo (70 min away)...and Magnolia really only has Martin Logan, Definitive technology and B&W on display

Can’t imagine free. You can buy some brands with a return policy. PS Audio and Tekton for example. You could also try Amazon Prime.

To get the best sound you need a great dealer or go to a stereo show ASAP!!

Unless I'm misreading, SVS has a 45 day risk free trial with free shipping both ways and a full refund, which goes a little beyond a standard return policy.  I guess what I'm asking is if any other companies offer something similar

Would love to attend a show if something is coming up in the Philly area or nearby

That’s an offer I would take...  you have to be pretty confident and / or have a proven record of low return rates to make an offer like that. SVS makes good products for the money too....

I’ve attended several shows in NY, it’s well worth the trip if you are planning on buying soon or even just because it’s cool to see the latest and greatest gear.
