a suggestion...

This has happened to me twice. After some dissappointments from poor results in my home with gear that sounded good to me in the showroom, I am very reluctant to buy new gear without a 100% return option or in-house demo of the store's floor sample first.

In two cases, while the dealers did not have any return policy at all (unless defective), I worked with the manufacturers (once direct, once through the dealer) to have the manufacturer offer a return policy. In both cases, the manufacturers promised the dealers that if I was unhappy with the sonic results of their products in my home, that I could return the items to the dealers and they would fully refund the dealers' cost. In one case, the manufacturer had a standing policy to do this for reluctant buyers, and in the other case, the manufacturer was trying to promote a new line of products. I kept one of the items (a pre-pro) and returned the other (a CDP).

Perhaps you could speak to the distributor and make similar arrangements through the dealer?
