Funny how this type of thing goes with regards to speakers.
Years back lines were VERY protected. I beleive it was Fred that couldn't get me M&K, another rep couldn't get me KEF, another Martin-Logan.
It was the same with AVR's. Pioneer Elite wasn't possible for me, the same with Onkyo.
I went direct with Aura first, and the buy in was 5K, later went with BG and the initial purchase was something like 10K (I had to jump through some serious hoops), went direct with Newcastle and I bought in with a 10K purchase.
I was already set up direct with M&S, Russound, Sharp Electronics, which required 100K per year, and several other companies when all this took place, so it became obvious that some line were just not going to be given to me, regardless of what I might do sales wise.
Sounds like we're sort of going back in that direction, so maybe you only "in" is to come up with the funds to make a very large initial order, and then follow through with continuing sales.
That's just the way it works sometimes.
