Opportunity to buy Demo Magico M2?

A dealer called me with an offer to sell their demo Magico M2’s at a massive discount. I was recently in their shop and tested the A5’s with my Gryphon Diablo 300, and I found the bass to be lacking with the A5’s. I think this was likely due to the fact that they had less than 250 hours on them.

My room, while not massive, is on the larger side. Vaulted ceilings that rises to 14 feet at the peak, about 26ft front to back, and open on the sides (house is open concept). There is a large and tall island that separates out the listening area.

Considering my room size, and considering my not so great experience with the A5’s, should I bother lugging my amp into the shop to test the M2’s? I have to travel a ways so it’s a bit of a commitment. But the discount they are offering is about $25k off. And they said it would include the M-Pods.  Thoughts?

@fastfreight I chose the A5 over the Hailey 2.2, after a long prosses of auditions (I like YG, had the Carmel 2 before). The A5 are a better speaker, much more complete and organic sounding, for almost half the price, IMO of course.

@nyev Not sure what it is you are trying to accomplish with your posts. As you can see, there are as many opinions as participants. You will be the only one who can decide, and I think you already did. You should just move on, Magico is not for for everyone, there are plenty of other options out there.
