One major problem your going to come up against in places like Richer Sounds is the Dem areas tend to be absolutely abysmal and they are often unlikely to let you take equipment home to dem it.. So bear in mind one important thing it wont sound the same in your room as it does when you dem it.

Other things to consider are your ears are what makes the final decision, not the editors advertising budget of a magazine. If your not tapping your foot along to the music somethings wrong. Leave enough in the kitty for cabling and support even at this level.
