Re: Yea whatever!

Maggie 3.6, Apogee Stage, Apogee Centaur Majors, Mirage M1s, Thiels, Hyperion 938s, etc. Plus countless electronics. All my speakers were bought new at authorized brick and morter dealers. Half of my electronics were bought online. This past two years, I visited three dealers - not that much by audiophile standards. But I do my homework before I audition speakers. Dealers have their role because you can listen to a product before you buy. So again you make assumptions and make an fool out of yourself.

I named one specific snobby dealer. Why you would think I am attacking all dealers doesn't make sense. There are few excellent dealers in my region, but they are all biased and will push their gears. They do not have your best interest in mind which is understandable. After all, it's business, which in itself is not necrssarily bad. I buy from a dealer because I like the product, not because I buy into a dealers vested opinion. Your misguided emotional responses indicate you have a codependency problem with dealers. I know a good therapist for people like you.

The numerous responses agreeing with my experience on this thread indicate I struck a common nerve. You are in a small minority. I have a difficult time believing you are not somehow invested in a dealer.
