View Full Version : What's The Best Online Retailer To Purchase A CD Player? Kage 10-01-07, 08:39 PM I might purchase the Marantz CD5001. What is the best online retailer for purchasing the Marantz CD5001? I want an authorized online retailer that have knowledgeable sales staff, good customer service, can offer me a good deal, and easy returns in case that I don't like the Marantz CD5001. I really don't want to purchase it at crutchfield or one call because I had issues with both retailers on their knowledge of the items they carried. Chad T 10-01-07, 10:30 PM Good luck. If a retailer excels in all of those requirements, they probably won't be in business too long. tvrbob86 10-02-07, 06:02 AM I might purchase the Marantz CD5001.

How about Audio Advisor (http://www.audioadvisor.com/prodinfo.asp?number=MACD5001)? I haven't yet ordered from them, but I've been enjoying their catalog for years. They seem to have a good reputation and were very helpful when I called a few weeks ago inquiring about the Marantz CD6002 (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=905430). marklnj 10-02-07, 12:00 PM Solid company, great products and they are discounting everything in their catalog 10%. Kage 10-02-07, 02:02 PM I just ordered the Marantz CD5001 from Audio Advisor. I will expect by the end of this week. Steve. 10-19-07, 12:09 AM Goods guys at AA, I've bought from them a few times. Helpful and no hassles. twitch54 10-19-07, 07:55 AM I agree about "AA", I think Chad has never heard of them ! Chad T 10-19-07, 10:46 PM I agree about "AA", I think Chad has never heard of them ! The problem lies in that I'm not sure how the OP defines "good deal". I read that to mean "rock bottom" pricing, but maybe that's not what they meant. AA does look like a good outfit.......but a 9% discount off retail certainly isn't a huge discount. whoaru99 10-20-07, 10:38 AM Usually, getting everything the OP wants ends up costing a little more. It's usually necessary to sacrifice one or more of the requirements to get the rock bottom price. |
