I am going through the same consideration. I would get good discount across the border in Canada but I am not sure what to expect on the hassle of duty and paperwork. The speakers are british-made and the components are china-made. Based on my research (checking the tariff schedule downloaded from the US Custom website, chapter 85), I should expect a 4.9% duty of the merchandise. To avoid the shipping cost and the risk of shipping damage, I will probably plan a short vacation there and transport the items back in my van on my return.
Would anyone please share their actual experiences about the duty and the paperworks and the practicality of transporting the merchandise across the border themselve?
Thanks all in advance.
