What brands do you have availability of?  And what's your market look like, like how much money do the customers seem to have available?

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

For some good quality brands that arent too expensive look at the following

Hifonics and jbl.

The only brand on that list that I would carry is Cliff Designs.  All the others are pretty much flea market or low-end stuff.  Oh, Audiobahn makes some killer looking equipment that you will be able to sell lots of and that will bring people into your store, just make sure you have a good service department and a great relationship with the local distributor for returns and repairs.  For mid-level equipment see if you can get a deal with DEI..  Are you interested in handling high-end stuff?

i have been selling car audio for about 10 years,and i just re-done my inventory and started carrying audiobahn,mtx,sony,kenwood,cerwin-vega and mmats.people like the good stuff,i hated selling lower end stuff.i would sell it and then it is not what it says it is and then the customer is unhappy and then it burns up and there car is in your shop getting stuff uninstalled and set back because it was cheap.i am also thinking of picking up the lightning audio line.but the stuff like pyle,lanzar and some of those others are just as DYohn said flea market stuff,look in your area and carry something no-one else has,make it sound good,build good customer relationships and people will come.

if i can't make it sound good,then it is just a piece of crap anyway
