[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1916558, member: 190607"] Yes, it's very frustrating when you purchase something and you don't have the time to install it, or to install it and really put it through its paces, before it becomes too late to return it. I've had that happen to me a number of times. Most recently it happened to me with a pair of computer speakers that I purchased from Amazon. I got a couple of powered stereo speakers that looked like a knockoff of the very highly rated $269 AudioEngine speakers: [URL code="true"]https://www.amazon.com/Audioengine-A2-Wireless-Bluetooth-Amplifier/dp/B07MYW4Q8S/ref=sr_1_3[/URL] But these speakers were only $70 (yet still pretty well rated): [URL code="true"]https://www.amazon.com/Sanyun-Active-Bluetooth-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B08777GG4P/ref=sr_1_4[/URL] It took me a while to clear things off my desk and set them up. When I got them set up...they sounded like crap. No deep bass whatsoever, and the highs were rolled off. However, vocals were impressively clear. I had other things going on, so I just left them connected and didn't get around to returning them. But, guess what happened? As they broke-in I started to realize that they were sounding much much better. Now, a couple of months later, they sound amazing! (It's not unusual for high-end speakers to need breaking-in, but this is the first time that I found it necessary with a "cheap" set of speakers.) So...I got lucky...this time. :p [/QUOTE]
