Walking Into A Brick & Mortar High End Audio Store


.
I am currently pretty satisfied with my system the way it is right now. I am not in the market for any new purchases right now, mainly because I don't have the discretionary income to make big changes. However, sometimes I get the urge to want to go into a hifi store just to look. Eventually I will upgrade my speakers, cd player, preamp, a new dac for sure and may give class D amps a shot...but not right now.

Is it cool to go into a store just to look around, knowing you don't have the money or immediate need for an item?

Maybe the high-end audio salons should hire grease balls with tats from head to toe and let people off the street play Metallica records.
After hearing about all the tire kicking audiophiles the last place I would want to work is at a high-end audio store.
The person that said the tire kickers should go to the audio shows is dead on. They don't care if you buy or not. They are paid to run the show and answer questions.
No one's going to lease audio. It's a huge depreciating asset. If there was a way to lease it they would of done it 30 years ago.
