Testimonials

Don’t take our word for it, here’s what others have to say!

Great experience here. Bought their Carbon setup while upgrading the amp so I could play vinyls on my headphones. Jesus was an extremely helpful person who showed me the ropes when I didn’t know much. I would definitely return here if I ever need upgrades.

So happy we've found our high-end audio home (without the usual pomposity & and formality). We just love our music and these good folks are clearly here to help. Couldn't be happier with our most recent purchase. The good stuff is still stuff, it's the people that make it great. Come here to learn about hi-fidelity and get the best equipment. Ask for a listen of whatever Wilson Audio is on tap.

Josh W.Los Ageles

Absolutely amazing store! They carry many of my favorite brands; DCS, Sonus Faber, VTL, Grado, Audioquest, Cardas and Transparent cables, along with many other high end manufacturers. The vibe in here is comfortable and adds to a very pleasant purchasing experience. I was also happily surprised they sell some Vinyl here! This has become my top recommendation for all my Audiophile friends.

Mike P.San Fernando Valley

Who knew there was a store in Los Angeles where you can actually listen to a variety of turntables. I brought my older Technics turntable and hooked it up at the store to compare. The guys at the store could not have been more helpful and friendly. I am now in possession of a fantastic new turntable. This place is a gem.

James W.Los Angeles

This is the best place for hi-fi in Pasadena! I always stop by to pick up some inner record sleeves and have always had great customer service from them. Really patient and willing to talk about the equipment they have in stock. Looking forward to buying a cartridge and having them install it.

Joel S.Pasadena

This place is fantastic! I'm just getting back into listening to records and music like it used to be and the folks here, particularly Brian are great. They are super knowledgable and helpful. I bought my amp from them and when I set it up I discovered my old turntable wasn't working. Brought that over and Brian fixed it right before my eyes. Love these guys - and they sell vinyl too!
