For what "grade" of products? The Autophile has some really good deals (quite a bit lower than MSRP), but everything he sells is high end and usually more expensive than most people can afford. (a/d/s, Focal, Dynaudio, Nakamichi, Brax, etc)

Peter gives everything he sells a manufacturers warranty. I had a Dynaudio driver that was bad and I sent it directly in to Dynaudio, called them, and got it replaced for free.

And I bought a Nakamichi HU from him as well (CD-700), but never needed any warranty work done. In fact the HU I purchased from him was $1,750 MSRP and I got it for $1,450 (plus no sales tax...the internet is awesome!!) The nearest retail store that carried it was a few hours away and they would not budge one cent off of the full $1,750 price. Crazy.

There is no "Best store" basically the best thing to do is decide what you want first, you can do that by hitting brick and mortar stores, and researching, then decide if you want a manufacturers warranty, if so you fine an online authorized reseller and buy from them, if you don't care about the warranty, then buy from the cheapest place you can find.
