Default Car Audio

I was just wondering what are some websites you guys use when you buy car speakers, subs an headunits. How are there prices compared to retailed stores like best buy, cheaper or the same? Looking for a website with cheaper than retail stuff, im on a budget. but nothing thats crap, im just looking to find a website with cheaper stuff than it cost in store. Do they have a big variety of stuff an are they trustworthy? Do they have good customer service an warrentys? just basic stuff, thanks in advance

ive heard good things about crutchfield.com as well, but i dont know how the prices compare. im looking for a good place to order from too. ebay is real cheap, but it scares me. feel like im getting refurbished or not so "new" stuff.

Hifisoundconnection is a great site for anything kicker. They have others but are really cheap and easy to work with.

thanks ksillman and boostin, im a kicker guy myself so I'll deff look into hifisoundconnection! Easy smeasy I don't order off of eBay too much because I find sites that people know on here are cheaper and more reliable. I have delt with Crutchfield before an there prices are as expensive as retail if not more, but besides that there good at everything else (customer service, outfitting your car, what fits an what won't fit). I mainly use Crutchfield to see what will fit my truck, and what won't, then I try to find it somewhere else cheaper.

thanks man. yea i checked it out for myself and they are expensive. on the other hand, both of the other websites mentioned were just as cheap as ebay so i'll definately be ordering throught them. i see that one of the ebay sellers i was looking at's name was sonicelectronix....wonder if its the same people. but doesnt matter anymore, im gonna order straight from the site now. i think im leaning towards sonicelectronix, just because its the only other site i've heard of before. let me know how your transaction goes

EBay usually gets its stuff from these websites but like you said I'd rather order directly from the website instead of eBay. A lot of my friends order from hifisoundconnection an say it's great! im looking at them briefly while im at lunch an hifi seems to have a better subs collection an sonic seems to have more indash collection. but like I said i only briefly looked at them while im on lunch break. I'll be sure to let you know how my transaction goes when I order some new subs, probably next week when I get my check.

yea im looking to order pretty soon. i was gonna order this week, but keep going back and forth between ideas. i also guess it depends on what your actually looking for as to which site you order from. im just ordering subs
