It's always been buyer beware, and I guess electronics are no exception. I've been reading about how electronics stores get you to pay good money for cheap products.

One thing to do if you are shopping is to take your own musical sample. It seems that it is a common practice to use high bit-rate MP3s to make a system sound better than it is.

I don't know how you would guard against the other practice I've heard of. Some stores will attach "enhancement units" to their low-end music systems to improve the sound.

No wonder systems are never as wonderful at home as in the store!
