Congrats! You should go back to your dealer and tell him how happy you are with your purchase and how wonderful your buying experience was. He should know.
Fee for home audition
I am in the market for a music server/streamer. I was discussing with one of the authorized dealers for a streamer. He had a demo unit and was willing to bring to my home for an hour and let me try. He is located around 10-15 minutes from my home. He wants to charge 5% for home demo. Is this the industry standard? I am not meaning to disparage anyone so not going to name the dealer. I am just trying to see what the standard practice is.

Congratulations on your purchase. Sounds like a great component. Using a WiFi extender with a high end streamer solves the problem of running Ethernet lines. I know of more than one high end audio system running on a WiFi extender…. And yes the Ethernet cable between the extender and streamer makes a difference. |
@soix Thank you! I will receive mine tomorrow or on Wednesday. I don’t know if I should rub it in, he knew he lost the sale when I informed him that I will not be using his services for home demo or purchase. Hopefully he just had a bad day and will offer better customer experience in future @ghdprentice Thank you! I do have a router in the room so that’s not an issue. I need to access my NAS and I am thinking of wireless as there is only one Ethernet input. |
Josh, you may want to rethink if you have alot of data. If convenient, maybe a high quality switch and direct ethernet connection? Glad you will be receiving yours in a few short days. |
