I use ebay a lot. I install everything myself. But I also use onlinecarstereo.com. woofersetc.com has a nice selection and good prices - but i've never purchased from them. But if you are concerned about warranties on your purchases, you might want to stick with a local shop or crutchfield.

^ i agree with the above.

I usually buy from everywhere just depeneds on the time of day, weather i feel like waiting for it to come in, if i care about a warrentee on the product. I have yet to have a problem with any of the car audio items i have bought and thats ebay stuff, online retailers, and places like bestbuy and crutchfield.

well im going to say this before anyone mentions it haha. Crutchfield while is a well known name you're really only paying for the name. crutchfield is way overpriced. i've used Hookedontronics and had great luck with them and they are always alot cheaper then most other places ive looked at for same product.

ebay for me it's pretty cheap for all the name brand stuff (good old ebay selling stolen tipped over truck items) and it's easy to install most things if not all for audio.

+1 for Ebay. I bought a JL300/4 for 120 bucks and worked for about 8 months then crapped out on me. I sent it to JL and they charged me 125 for the repairs. When I got it back they sent me a brand new amp. So I basically paid 250 for a almost $500 amp and its covered under full warranty for a year
