"I do my homework and when I buy a product, I intend to keep it and use it."
John IMHO, homework might be sufficient to gather specs and features on an audio product but you have no idea how it actually sounds. Do you trust audio magazine reviews? I don't. This would be similar to reading about a car in a magazine and making a purchasing decision w/o ever sitting in or driving the car.
"I've never bought a product strictly to audition."
This is not what I am talking about.
I'm talking about home auditioning an audio product for the legitimate purpose of making an informed purchasing decision based on how it sounds in your listening room.
Since many dealers and manufacturers offer "risk free in home auditions", I was curious to know which ones actually welcome it.... and which ones complain and push back when you say "it's not for me" and want to return it.
Again, fully legit and not trying to game the system.
