A few reasons to shop locally

I have no idea how you missed headphonic, they're like, old school.

 
Bought from them a few times, no probs at all.

Another from me regarding Addicted to Audio :-
 
George's professionalism and dedication to great pricing with a massive product range unseen in Australia
up until now makes him a stand-out. Pity he cannot transport his extensive audition room around Australia
but if you ever get the chance then pop into Kew in Melbourne, be prepared for a great sounding time! 

 
Items purchased :- Arcam rDAC, Rega DAC, Violectric V200, various Beyer spares to bolster my Grado headphones.

There is also Wicked Digital in Sydney although i have not purchased from them myself. Perhaps someone else can vouch for them.

Jaben AUS!!
 
+1 for them please

 

[Brooko]

Definite kudos to Jaben.  Josh has allowed me to try before I've bought (which has involved shipping all the way to NZ).  He's been very fair with both pricing and payment.  Can't fault Jaben's service so far.

 

[sebbyr]

+1 For AddictedToAudio. I purchased my CLAS and ALO Rx MkII from them.
 
Also thumbs up for Headphonic even though I did not eventually purchase from them I got some good advice from the person I spoke to on the phone that actually lost them a sale.  The guy was actually interested in helping me, not just selling a product, that deserves kudos in my books.

-Updated- (I'm keeping track of the reputations)

Does this list include online only retailers? I just dealt with www.i-enjoy.com.au and would rate them highly!
 
Ah more gear acquisition time...
