Your wallet will go on a diet, but take heart as value for money is far greater as well

For me, it has seemed almost impossible to get decent hi-fi equipment here in Philippines, but now that I've discovered this forum I think there is possible to get some help. What I'm looking for is an amplifier and good fullrange speakers, mainly american or european, JBL, Klipsch etc., new or secondhand, and I'm looking for a dealer, preferably in Davao area or if necessary in Manila that has a reasonable selection of quality sound systems. Also vintage hi-fi is of great interest.

ah you be a Brummie then eh?
Good to hear from you, I am originally from Belfast.

Well the prices here are naturally a tad higher so I recommend scouring the sales threads here for some stock if needs be in whatever your after.
can't comment on Davao but here in Manila there are a few good outlets ranging from the bigger ones such as The Listening Group (stores in Megamall, Shangri-la and Glorietta to name but a few), Watt Hifi and a few others in Makati Cinema Square.
Those are the ones that I personally go to but the grizzled vets (I am a headphone guy so I am in my own forum lol) can give you more hardcore shops and of course you can use Johnny Air Cargo and amazon US for a tax free importation lifestyle on US prices if you are buying small things.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
Marcus

i would recommend sounds and images. owner fld is in this forum. he carries audio note uk, plinius of new zealand, rel and harbeth, some u.s. and canadian brands, etc ... a few days ago, i listened to a pair of wilsons in his show room.
and there's the usual across the counter stuff where the sales clerk barely knows which end of the wire you stick onto the wall. or who'd pair a top of the line B&W to a P10k receiver. heheheheh
DIY community here not as many compared to manila
