Speaker return or sell As New


I recently purchased 2 sets of speaker, on paper radically different.

1. The LRS from Magnepan 2. The Zu Audio Dirty Weekend.

I love rock music, from the classic bands to Metallica. I also listen to all music in smaller doses.

Simple AB testing with my ordinary ears, cheap cables and an unremarkable amplifier. Led me to prefer the LRS with a REL T7i subwoofer versus the Dirty Weekenders.

Having said that, 2 questions arise.

First, any suggestions to make the desicion better informed without at this moment buying a better amp or cables.

Amp is an Iota VX with the additional power amp.

Cables 12AWG un branded.

Streaming for now from Amazon Ultra HD for testing through a Bluetooth Aptx adapter.

I cannot afford to spend more money for now.

And the other question, do you think I should offer the Dirty Weekenders for sale "As New" since they are and give anyone who missed the recent sale, the chance of buying them. They have the Capacitors upgrade from Zu. Or simply return for the full refund they offer?

As ever, thanks for any input and advice!

Happy Holidays to all.

you are at the whim of potentially fickle buyers who may find a way to take advantage of you after the purchase.
So is the speaker company at the whim of the customer. 
Free return shipping if expectations are not met
its not free for the company. They end up paying for it  
Why do you have an issue with this?

Because its not good enough. I want to be able to put each and every speaker to the test all in one go in my own time. Do you know any dealer that would provide that for free? 

Should we be charged to walk into a clothing store just to browse? Thats what the greedy high end industry is doing. Do not be duped. Save your money
extremely generous speaker manufacturer who has offered you the "free in home trial"

its not extremely generous. it should be our right. 

Now how many speaker companies offer this sort of free home trial? Its only a few. And you still have to pay for it first. 
 Audio shows are a nice idea but how often do they happen? and what about the horrific room acoustics? You didnt think of that did you
