Two companies come to my mind when I consider quality/sound, price and service. Grado - A little "Mom and Pop" as far as letting you know when you will get something back but they go the extra mile. Channel Island- I had read many positive comments about the company's founder Duster V. and my interactions with him and the company only reinforced those comments.

Butler, Manley - Not often you can converse directly with the designer/cheif engineer

Oppo - Excellent customer service and bang-for-the-buck products.
