    Buying Demo Speakers - thoughts on this?

    I have an oppurtunity to get a pair of B&W 603 from a local authorized dealer.
    These are demo units that are offered to me at a decent discount.

    Should I be wary of buying demo units or do you think they should be fine?

    It will come with the standard warranties.

    Thoughts?

    thanks in advance.

      Welcome to the forum SF VR6.

      I would only avoid demo projectors (bulb life) and CD players (moving parts). Speakers are a pretty safe bet if they sound healthy and the price is right.

          Bought quite a few years ago (around 1990) Matrix 3/2 demo speakers; still work well.

              HI,
              I would not have any problem buying demo B&W's as long as you know the dealer, trust him, and get a full factory warranty which should be offered with unsold demo's.
