Convincing your local dealer to let you try speakers at home
So, I had a great experience listening to some Devore 0/96 speakers yesterday. The challenge for me is that the room I heard them in is wildly different than any other room I’d ever listen in. (I’ll share a photo, below.) I really have no idea if spending $13k plus on these speakers would work out. I’d need to try them at home.
For all I know, these dealers might be ok with me trying some speakers at home. I don’t know and am not yet ready to ask.
But I’m curious whether folks here have any stories to tell about the reactions they’ve gotten when they’ve asked to try speakers at their home. If you have a story, especially if it’s a more expensive speaker, I’d love to hear your story. How did you convince them? If they turned you down, what was the reason? Did you agree?

“This is fun!” Except it isn’t! IME, due to their sheer size, speakers presents the biggest challenge. I regularly go to audio shows for first hand feel on what’s new and which gear worth auditioning in my home. I know, I know, the rooms are not perfect and so on, but there isn’t another venue I know of where one get to see, admire and enjoy the wide selection of gear. What say you, will I see you at AXPONA in 2023? |
@hilde45 seeing the picture of the dealer and your listening space, you want a home demo! That is an awful space at that dealer. |
