Congratulations on the Acoras ! I am only 15 minutes from you and would love to come over for a listen when you get them all set up! I’d love to have you over to my place for a listen as well!

New buy, no return policy
I am negotiating a sale with a reputable, but small dealer for a pair of new Acora SRC-2 speakers. I have heard them in the showroom with comparable electronics to my own and loved the sound and design. The show room was only slightly acoustically treated.
I'm ready to throw down, but the dealer does not have any kind of return policy if, for some reason, they dont work out in my own space. I dont feel comfortable with this policy but wondering if I am just being too entitled? Other dealers from which I have purchased new speakers have had 30 or 60 day returns, no questions asked.
I also have the opportunity to buy a used set of these speakers from TMR with a return policy (minus 5% ,restock) if not satisfied. Of course the used price is considerably cheaper but there is no factory warranty and although they are stated to have had own owner, their age and provenance are unknown.
Any guidance, opinions or advice?

@everyone-- Thanks for all the responses. Lots of wisdom and insight. @ronboco -- Lets get together, that sounds great! I'll reach out as soon as things are settled in. I look forward to hearing your system as well. -- Dan |
Yeah, that would be ideal, your own room and electronics. But if the dealer’s room is very similar it might be alright. Besides, you might move to another room next year. Are you going to replace speakers each time you move your system? My current speakers have played music in five quite different rooms and they have done it well enough,, better in bigger rooms, I do mostly listen almost near field, though. |
