Default car audio equip. on-line

Where or who does everyone buy their car audio stuff from on-line? Im wanting to buy a head unit, speakers, subwoofer, and amps. Went to best buy and circuit city yesterday, and i think i can get a better deal on-line.

I just purchased an Avic-D1 and a Soundstream DVD player from wooferetc.com and was very pleased with their service. I know there has been some concern with their selling items from JL and the like even though they aren't authorized dealers, but when I go to buy the rest of my system I'll be purchasing from them.

I like to use cardomain.com. They have a price match deal where you submit them a URL to a lower price and they email you back a discount code. Their normal prices aren't the cheapest (not as bad as say Crutchfield), but they have a good selection and return policy. I have yet to have them not accept a price, even if it's an ebay store. I got a pair of Kicker SS MB8's for $125 shipped through the price match and they normally sell them for $250.

For CDT Audio I highly recommend Ultimate Sounds. They are an authorized dealer and there's a link to their site from the CDT Audio web site. It run by a nice couple from North Carolina and they have the best prices on CDT.

It's way easy to find better prices on-line than what you'll find at Best Buy.
I have purchased a lot off e-Bay. I always make sure it is brand new (not refurbished), shipping/handling isn't way overpriced, the vendor has great feedback, and the vendor uses PayPal. I use knukonceptz.com for most of my wiring and accessories needs.

Hey Tech Guy
Do you have a web site? I was under the impression that manufactures such as JL will not warrenty purchases over the net. Is that true in your case? The reason I ask is that I see some JL Audio purchases coming my way in the future
