    I like the idea! Anyone want to lease a tube amp? Shipping both ways plus $50 a month? What a cool way to try something before you buy.

    I'm willing to bet you need to sign a contract that you can't back out of. In this case the way they advertise is it at the end of the lease for those speakers for example the buyout is $1.00. Therefore, you sign a contract saying you will pay $24,999 + interest for those speakers. Should you decide to give it up you are still responsible for that money.

    You know you're a hardcore audio buff when renting
    a set of speakers at $400 a month starts to sound like a good idea.

    I don't know, how about if they had a three month plan. You lease it for three months you get some quality time with the piece of gear then after the third month, you call them and tell them to come pick it up. That would be worth $1.2K for three months to hear a $25k pair of speakers that long in my own environment.
