It's been my experience that for buying home theater speakers, it's hard to beat the "direct to consumer" strategy employed by companies like SVS, AV123, Oppo, etc., where they bypass retail distribution channels, storefronts, middleman and sell direct.
How come I don't hear about car audio companies that employ the same strategy. I've gathered from other threads that some of the "best bang for buck", and in fact speakers that have the best SQ are manufactured by Focal, MB Quart, etc.
But these speakers suffer from heavy markup due to dealer-only distribution channels.
I'd like to buy component speakers for one of my Honda, but don't want to have to visit a dealer / haggle over pricing.
Any companies you can recommend?
