Talking The Guide to Online Audio Purchasing Sites

Okay, I haven't seen any topics around here that lists places where you can buy audio supplies/equipment at, such as speakers (pre-built and Do It Yourself), cables, amps, receivers, equalizers, and et cetera.

So I think we should make one so we can list all the retailers/online retailers here so we can help everyone know where they can look so they can hopefully find it. From budget to high end needs. I feel it is important to do this to help everyone out with finding what they are looking for.

The order the items are listed does NOT mean anything. It is completely random, and not in any particular order whatsoever.

List of Brands and Online Retail Stores

Please suggest other stores that can be put up on the list if you know of any that are not currently listed. I aim to help all audio enthusiasts, budget to extreme high end find the proper places to buy from.

For Audio Visual equipment racks I would HIGHLY recommend Middle Atlantic Products......Here is a link:

You can use their "Rack Tools" software to create a custom rack with pricing. I currently have a rack system in place that I purchased from them. Custom faceplates are very nice!

Nice man, great list.

Maybe try and incorporate forums like av123forum.com and head-fi.org and their for sale sections. You can usually find all of the things you need for very inexpensive.

Nice list! +rep

By the way, bluejeanscables are highly recommended by me and many of the members on the head-fi forums. They are pretty good quality for very cheap. If you want high quality cables, go with soloz's company.

Thanks!

I just re-worked the list, and it looks much better now. More well organized.

Alright, both of those have been added.

Glad to see the list is building up. I would have added one for the mopads, but I currently forgot the site name. I remember reading it somewhere. *keeps searching*
