What do you take when demoing new gear?


As a relative newbie and also someone who is planning on upgrading my setup soon, I was wondering what you bring with you when you are auditioning new gear.

I will definitely bring some familiar lp`s and cd `s, but do you recommend I also bring my own source components, like a streamer or turntable? Do you ever take your own amps or speakers? What about cables?

Do dealers even allow this?

Thanks for your input!

We have a dealer here that will bring the audition to the buyers home. This is where you will hear what it really sounds like. Most shop’s worth their weight will have room treatments in place so of course it will sound good there. But you will not be going there every day to listen right?
