No question. The problem with speaker is that they are soooo difficult to audition in teh home. Too big and bulky and it still takes time to dial them in. If you live near a dealer that you trust and like, then it can be done. That's why I get upset with dealers who don't care bout the acoustics of their rooms. All too many dealers who sell out of their homes, don't have dedicated rooms and their acoustics are just not great. Tons of excuses by some as to why they don't sound good, but everyone I speak with says the same thing. Of course some will say that's not the case, but in reality it is.
I have also found store front dealers who's rooms sound terrible and many offer ultra high end gear. I am amazed by this since they can easily solve these problems with only a bit of work.
