Speaking of French, anyone has JM Labs Grand Utopia speakers ?
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?

inna I think you're missing something here this wasn't an online transaction they OP lives near TMR this was local and delivered and setup. Can't ask for better service than that. I visited TMR when I was in Boulder visiting a friend they were as nice as could be and gave my friend a discount for coming in and not buying online. Congrats on your new speakers @mintakax ! |
TMR is also an authorized dealer & retailer of many high-end brands. So the lines are kinda blurred anyways. They do a really good job with packing, shipping for reasonable rates, and having extremely detailed pics of used gear. They're not perfect 100% of the time (we're all human and err occasionally), but I've come to really appreciate the service they provide. They've also become the #2 place I check for newly listed used gear. For large expensive speakers, they really help de-risk the transaction. |
@gano Well, if you wanna count Nissans as “French” vehicles then we’ll just agree to disagree. Peace out. |
I am good @soix :) my car days are in the rearview mirror |
