Dear Nikhili,
One of the principles I have lived by for a long time is to A) understand what people want, and to try my utmost best to cater to them, B) understand what people wish when looking for new products, and to see how we can realize this.
Now, on a global scale we do provide for a right of return when the products do not fit, are not being liked, or else, and till day we have been very fortunate to cater to clients who were looking for a dac, either as a replacement of an other dac, or a total new setup. What I would like to avoid is testing out of curiosity, because that wont help our clients nor us when we end up being a library handing out and taking in dacs.
So the the answer to your question is as follows. If people are sincere and tell us they are curious after the Metrum Acoustics sound, I am more than happy to work with you on providing a loaner. Please do understand i can not do this 1.3 billion times

), so maybe we should start a little pool on hifivision where we make available some devices to be used as demo for members?
For those who are interested in buying the right of return stands. Fortunate enough we seldom do get the purchased devices back as people seriously like the sound of non-oversampling dacs from Metrum Acoustics. If however it is not for you, we do allow you send it back, you get your money back, no questions asked.
Lets discuss this a little, and see whether we can be ground breaking in policy, and also in terms of our dacs
