[QUOTE="user 997, post: 1155649, member: 997"] If this would encourage dealers to be more forthcoming and accommodating with home demos/limited leases I would definitely support this business model. There is no substitute for trying a product in your own system and listening space and it would open avenues towards experimentation if the risk is manageable. There are dealers though who do go to the trouble of accommodating home demos, but then it is always awkward if you don't end up buying a product or supporting the dealer, or you have to make promises of purchasing something in order to keep the gear longer in your system. A lease would be a straight forward agreement which manages expectations. Lease to buy would be also be a welcome addition with the cost of high-end audio gear now, but I guess that there would be difficulties financing and running this from a commercial perspective since this is niche and small market.
