How many times can u visit a hifi store before it annoys the store if u plan on a purchase


I plan on buying a McIntosh system C12000 and 2 MC611 monoblocks in a about 3 months from this Stereo shop I have chosen. I’ve been to the store about 4 times over the past year and half to listen to various components trying diff equipment.

My question, is, what would be considered visiting the store to much before I buy a system? I plan on spending over 20k but I didn’t know what is proper etiquette.

Go as often as you want.  Maybe don’t waste their time auditioning equipment you never intend to buy, but don’t feel guilty about making sure that you’ll be happy with a future purchase. If they get annoyed with a future customer, I would be concerned with how they would act if you purchase the equipment and then have a problem with it. . . . .
