Speakers for 15K - Discounts

Hi,
    I'm thinking of getting Bowers and Wilkins 802 D3 speakers. I got all my gears from Dealers and never got any discounts. This is going to be by far the biggest purchase I'm going to make on speakers and I want to find out, if it is okay to ask for a discount to the dealer? I live in AZ.Also any suggestion with respect to the dealer will be much appreciated.

Any dealer I have purchased from gave me at minimum of a 10% discount. BTW,it doesn't hurt to ask!

Dealers get big profits from new speakers. It's a niche hobby. Not many people even dream of dropping over a grand on some speakers. It's more like a car purchase. You can absolutely deal with them and shop around as well.

Some companies discourage their dealers from discounting their products. One way around that is for the dealer to give an inflated trade-in value for the customer's old piece(s). When I went from McIntosh to ARC (one such company), that's what my dealer did.
