- 1 on Rogue Audio. My experience is the exact opposite of lradder. They were not very helpful and their Stereo 100 is an overpriced boat anchor. Their dealer Wolfsong audio is a poor excuse for an audio dealer, or I should say wheeler-dealer.
Conrad-Johnson on the other hand, is fantastic, attentive and responsive. Their products are among the best that money can buy, albeit pricey.
+1 on Upscale Audio. They are very good with service and Kevin won't steer you wrong. The Prima Luna amps I bought from him are dope. I also bought a BAT phone pre from him. When dealing with BAT you are talking to Victor, the man.
For on-line, my experience with Audio Advisors is mixed. It seems they don't have a place to setup and audition equipment is what I was told by one of the sales people. So when they give advice it is not from personal experience, just the company line. Music Direct is very different. Everyone in sales has some in-depth audio experience plus they can listen to what they are selling you.
At the top on my list is Sound-Smith. Peter Lederman is a genius. The products are incredibly good, extremely high quality and a terrific value. Peter Green the support person is attentive and thorough.
