In Reply to: Why does the Magnolia Room at Best Buy sound so bad? posted by LA mitchell on November 9, 2014 at 08:41:57:
Just when the salesperson looks at you with a smile, indicating: "Doesn't that sound fabulous?"
When, in fact it's making your ears feel like they're bleeding. Still, at that point I would try to do a comparative judgment between the various gear and try to guess what would sound good in your living space -- a long shot choosing the right one, I know.
Like someone already said: Their spaces are WAY too small for the really good loudspeakers and there is too much other junk going on as well.
I once took my wife to a Bose dealer and let us compare two systems and the salesman had to ask me 'Which sounded better now?' I had to choose between a boxy sound with no highs and a sound that made my ears hurt from the highs, so I looked at the price tags and mistook the $3500 for $1500 and choose the $2500 system instead. WRONG: The most expensive system ALWAYS sounds better to a dealer! It was the ear bleeder.
