Giovanni had good prices and really offered a good deal Jose did the installation. It took around 5 hours to install everything but for the quality of work and the time spent was definitely worth it all. read more

Giovanni did an awesome job at getting me in and out in an hour and a half with little notice that I was coming! I bought a head unit here and had it installed in less than an hour and a half. I definitely recommend stopping in and getting your audio system done here! Support your local businesses! read more

Great service! I had a stereo that I purchased from Amazon and some aftermarket speakers purchased from Audio Zone installed by Giovanni. It was all installed easily within 2 hours and upon pickup Giovanni walked me through all of the features of my new stereo. I was surprised by the reasonable price as well. Highly recommend this place and will probably go back for the installation of a back up camera. read more

Upgraded my supra with a double din dvd in dash unit with front and back cameras and a new viper alarm. Can't wait to upgrade the speakers next. They even added an extra switch for free for my hood. read more

Audio & Accessory Zone - Thanks for the upgrade. Clean install. - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Oceanside, California

I have been here multiple times with nothing but good experiences. Weather it was a new car that needed window tint or a audio issue they have it covered. Not to mention the great selection of wheels they have to offer. The prices are very competitive.There's no doubt that I will be a life time customer. I highly recommend them to all my friends. read more

I went into this shop to buy a new car stereo because the shop is in my neighborhood. The sales guy helped me pick a stereo that was inexpensive and seemed like it would do the trick. The price was great and the installation was super cheap (I don't remember how much, but the whole thing was going to be around $200). The sales guy didn't pressure me at all, which I appreciated. When the installer started on my car, he saw I had an old phone system wired through it. He asked me if I wanted to upgrade to a stereo that had Bluetooth capabilities, which would integrate my phone; it was going to be an additional $40. I said HELL YES cuz it was a deal! So the guy installed my new stereo/handsfree stuff and away I went! Before I left, he offered to take the 10-disk CD changer from my trunk, since the changer had died (which is why I wanted a new stereo in the first place). I told him no, but then realized later that I had left 10 pretty good CDs in that changer and there was no way to get them out cuz the changer was kaput/DOA/187d. I stopped by the shop a few weeks (more like a few months) later and the other sales guy (seemed like an owner) took the changer out and spent a good amount of time taking the thing apart so I could get my CDs. There was one CD that was stuck and he took great care to remove it without damaging it. These guys definitely went beyond the norm to take care of me, even though I didn't spend that much money in their shop. That's the mark of a good store. It's so hard to get really good customer service - and a good product - but this shop had both and I am really happy to support them. They're a locally owned business, so be sure to let them sell you some cool stuff; they seem to have some pretty fancy shit, in addition to my basic little system (which sounds and works GREAT, btw). Why would you want to give your money to Best Buy or some other huge corporation when this shop is a small business where your money will make a difference - and you'll get exceptional customer service, too! Thanks, guys, for taking such good care of me; you've earned a customer for life! -Nora (and her silver Honda Accord named "Susan") read more

I liked how they took an interest into what I was talking about. He got in my SUV and sat with me as we diagnosed the problem together. Then his expertise kicked in and it solved the problem with a 12" kicker and amp. Just what I was looking for. I've had many systems in my life time and the instillation was a key component for me and it's of good quality. Some key words to describe this place is: quality personnel and product. I would recommend this place. read more

I took my vehicle in to Audio & Accessory Zone to complete a job that a shop in San Diego had started and messed up. Giovanni KNOWS his stuff! He completed my install professionally and at a fair price. He didn't try to "up sell" me or take advantage of my situation. I highly recommend Audio & Accessory Zone and will definitely return for any car audio needs in the future. Thank you! read more

Awesome service! I called in to get a price and their rates were almost a hundred dollars cheaper than the previous place I had visited! Giovanni got me in right away and had my sub installed in less than two hours! He hooked up a bass knob right where I wanted it and did everything just as I asked! Definitely will use them for all my future audio needs! read more

Stop weighing out your options, because this is the place you NEED to go!! I took my 2007 Toyota Corolla in to Audio Zone to have them install a new stereo, an old amp I had laying around and an equally old sub. When I first came in the owner, Giovanni greeted me right away and asked how he could help. I told him my intentions and asked how much the install would cost. I had already budgeted out what I could afford and I just knew for sure, in my mind, that it would cost more than I had planned...Nope!! The prices were UNBEATABLE! Giovanni cut me a great deal on the installation and the parts. They installed the head unit, which also included running a blue tooth microphone up behind the sun visor on the driver's side, the install kit to fit the head unit, the amp, as well as an amp kit, and two new 6.5s on the front driver and passenger side door panels. Let me say that Javier (the gentleman who did all the installation) is an absolute pro!! He did such an amazing job installing everything and completed the install in no time at all!! Everything looks clean clean clean! While I was waiting for Javier to install everything I got to chatting with Giovanni about the products they carried and what he thought would be the best move to further upgrade my car's sound system down the road. I made it clear to him that I did not just want a ridiculously loud rattly car, but rather a powerful, balanced, and well thought out professional car audio system. He gave me a step by step breakdown of the best long-term approach to reach my goal. The man knows his stuff!....This was the first time I came in. The second time I stopped in was...the next day! I was so happy with the work they did, but the old subwoofer I had brought in for them to install was more or less garbage (replacing the old tube sub I had with a new box/sub was part of the "next steps" Giovanni recommended. I came in and he greeted me with the same outgoing and helpful attitude I had received the day before. He was in the middle of helping a few customers, but he made it immediately clear that he wanted me to feel welcome and that he would get to me as soon as he could. I told him that I was looking to ditch the dusty old tube sub I had been holding on to for far far too long, and he helped me decide what I should replace it with. I came in with the idea of picking up a 10" and was fairly set on following through, however, Giovanni asked me some qualifying questions to help me better determine if I should go with a 10" or 12" sub. He highly recommended a 12" and he made many good points as to why that was the best move, and what do you know....he was right again! He hooked me up with a 12" Kicker sub and ported box for an amazing price (yet again, way lower then I was planning on spending). Javier hooked up the sub and tuned it for me. By the time Javier was done it sounded killer! ...that was the second time... The third time would have been the next day, but it was New Years day and they were closed...so I came in on the second. Part of Giovanni's "next step" recommendations were to get a more powerful amplifier to match this sub. The amp I had was actually too powerful for the tube sub I had at the time, but not enough to power the 12" Kicker I had recently purchased (it's a beast of a sub btw, I recommend your consideration for Kicker products if you looking for affordable quality). I was getting ready to swing in after work and buy a new amp, but a buddy of mine gifted me an amp that was a great match for the sub, so I brought that in. Javier removed the old amp and installed the new one in the blink of an eye. Giovanni charged me a very fair price on this install even though I decided not to purchase the amp from them. I literally cannot think of a SINGLE negative thing to say about these guys and the operation they are running. I know that some of the older Yelp reviews are very poor, but Giovanni recently took over this place and he has turned it around beyond belief!! The negative reviews are very old and out-dated. If you are looking for high quality products, unbeatable prices, top-notch customer service, and guys that know there stuff, then this is the place you NEED to go!! You can guarantee that this is the only place I'll take my car for my car audio needs. They also have a really killer selection of rims and other car customization products. Stop looking, because you found the right place!! read more

Great place to come and get a sound system! Very affordable and sounds great too! They help you get exactly what you want with a manageable price! I'll recommend it to family and friends!! read more

My 1 year old stereo lost power and wouldn't turn on. Went in and asked if they could find out why it wouldn't work. The man behind the counter pulled my stereo and reset it and reinstalled it end everything worked perfectly after that. Took him 10 min to figure it out. I went to pay him for his time but he said it was no charge. Ill definitely be coming back for all my future purchases and installs! read more

I just had the most positive experience upgrading my car stereo and sound system and I owe it all to Giovanni and Mike!! They kindly answered ALL of my questions and laid out all of my options. They were super honest and respectful and gave me the best possible deal available. I left feeling so grateful and lucky to have done business in their shop!! They put new speakers in the front of my car and were able to set me up so that I didn't even have to replace the back speakers. I came in looking for an after market auxiliary cord and left with a whole new built-in system for a fabulous price!!! I will be sending anyone I can to these guys in the future and will certainly be a return customer. I can't thank them enough for making my birthday weekend road trip infinitely better!!!! :) read more

So happy with my experience today! I can't wait to return and have more work done on my stereo system! I had dual 12s and and amp installed. Along with a bass knob. Very knowledgeable staff and owner. Awesome and friendly customer service. I WILL recommend my friends and peers to this gem! This was only the beginning for me here!!!! read more

Great service for a very reasonable price. Exceeded my and my wife's expectations. They upgraded our SUV's system and did a great job. We are very pleased with their work. read more

Giovanni was so great to work with in helping us pick the right system for my son's car. He was very educational and honest about price range and quality. The service was fast and reliable. When we came to pick up his car, the other service people were just as friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend Audio Zone! My son loves his new system!!! read more

Few years ago I purchased a pair of Kicker Component speakers, they where @ $180 so i ask owner if he would orice match them to best buy who had them @ $120,. He did but lil did i know it would cost me the cross overs.ni crash the carband when imwent to get the speakers from the front and back, the front was missing the box that connects tonthe tweeters. I thought that for a pair of components that they sounded mediocre at best. I was not impressed. Sorry kicker maybe they should pull the plug o this place as an official kicker retail shop. I gonna be contacting them alsombecause that was BS! think twice about this place read more

I recently had some work done on my Jeep at audio zone. I have to say that Mike and Giovanni are great to work with. Mike guided me through my purchase making sure that I got everything that I needed. My new sound system, door locks, alarm and rear view camera were all installed perfectly and quickly. Can't wait to go back for custom gear for my Jeep! read more

They did a great job on my install and even threw in some deals for me even though I am a first time customer. Had new speakers and a 12 inch sub installed. I am completely satisfied and highly recommend them. read more

A&AZ gets a lot of favorable reviews, but my experience was anything but that. I gave them 2 stars because at least I was shown a simple stereo. Knowing very little because it was the first store I went to, I was the only customer & I saw only one employee (?) in the store. I explained I wanted a simple stereo. He pointed out one & said "this is the simplest one." Without volunteering any additional info, he walked away. I took out a notebook & wrote down the various models. Thinking that he might notice me doing that, I realized that he had left the sales floor without saying a word! Left alone, I wandered around looking at nothing in particular because I had seen the units available. I thought it would be simple to shoplift something with the salesman (?) or manager (?) never showing up again. Of course I left & never went back. BTW, their website has two "testimonials" from Kenneth J. and "jon" (sic.) Their names repeat as you look for other comments. They only have two favorable comments. I understand why! read more

I came to audiozone zone to fix up my car Giovanni help me out he was nice and profinal know what he's talking about I love my sound system reccome d this place read more

Great work! Nice guy and efficient. Would recommend to anyone looking to get Bluetooth speakers installed in their car.

This is my first Yelp review. I'll start off with saying Mikey, Gio, Jewel and Chris are phenomenal individuals. There recommendations and dedication to their job are truly appreciated. The work completed on my 2013 Tundra was immaculate and consisted of 2 13.5 JL Audio stealth box and a Pioneer AVIC 7200 with Idatalink to maintain factory controls. They told me the amplifier I had previously was more than enough to power these speakers; they were right and I appreciate the honesty. They also replaced ALL the OEM lights with HID lights. I will say perfection! I'm so happy with the quality work and sound quality. By far the best audio purchase/installation experienced. You guys took care of me. Take care my friends. Thanks for the hard work. ------Derek------ read more

!!!!! I will not go anywhere else but here !!!!! I have tried going other places for a custom audio system for my car and they keep trying to sell me the same thing everybody else is rolling around in. When i went to Audio Zone I explained to them im from down south and i wanted a custom system, something with a max of bass but where I could also hear my highs. I refuse to roll around just shaking windows with no words being heard. They researched with me the best fitting products to go with my car and found only the best reviews. Now my car is unique...no one else can say that they have something like mine. *****BEST PLACE IN OCEANSIDE CALIFORNIA!!!***** read more

To be honest all these places are a little shady, because they are not factory installers and they customizing, but I got first rate service on a ipod adapter install, that was ordered it arrived on time, they removed my existing stock GPS / Radio and installed the cables. and it works great! I also impressed with the way the put every thing back into place. Fair price and on time as expected. read more

I recently had a kicker sub installed in my car from them and I thought I bought a 12" but instead got a 10". When I went back to dispute the confusion not only did they work diligently to fix the misunderstanding but also helped me walk away with the right system for my car. The men who work here are not business owners but more like a family member with how courteous they are. All of them are very professional and proficient in what they do and this is the only place I will ever go to get car accessories or speakers when in California. When I recommend family and friends for accessories or speakers this is the first and only place I will ever bring up. Outstanding place to go and by far the most amazing people I have had the privilege to meet while here in California. Keep up the great work guys and you're doing an outstanding job. read more

Just had my 5th system installed by these guys. They rock! Prices are great. Service and workmanship is outstanding. They even replaced a Sony unit that went bad almost a year later... FREE! Would absolutely recommend them. read more

Had new door speakers and a sub installed for $200 less than the other guys! Everything has worked flawlessly for a year and a half. Had a weird light flip on my amp, called in and they told me to come over. He checked everything out and replaced the fuse that had burned out no charge! Professional, accommodating, military friendly. read more

A+ work and Giovanni was awesome to work with. Great communication and walked me through everything he was installing and once it was installed. I would recommended this place to everyone. I will for sure be back. Thanks read more

Almost got hustled Got in to get my radio installed. Employer/boss there tells me the stereo I have gives bad sound, and tells me to get a Pioneer #DEH-X5600HD, and gives me a price for installation and the radio. I say I'll think about it, and write down the name. The package is decent, saving me about $15 compared to if I buy the radio myself and take it to them for installation. I come back an hour later saying that I will take the radio. He takes me over to sign the contract and I see the letters JVC. I ask which radio he is installing, and he shows me a JVC that costs $30 less. He almost got me, as I was in a rush. Nice try. He got nervous and denied he had showed me the Pioneer earlier. I asked for my car keys and walked off. Might be cheap service, but I would not risk it. The vibe there is a little unprofessional to. I would not go there, but your choice. read more

This review focuses on Audio Zone's service, not selection or prices. I hate giving bad reviews, but I had a BADDDDD experience here. Simply put, you cannot trust this place. During a rear window tint installation, the serviceman broke a few plastic panels. No big deal and the serviceman was apologetic, but the owner refused to do anything about it. I took it to the BBB to get him to cover some junkyard replacements (I'm a reasonable guy, I went to the junkyard myself and pulled the panels, grand total of $30). They agreed to pay on the BBB's 2nd try. Well and good, but the owner, who can be described in unpleasant ways, had to slip in a nasty comment as he handed me the money. All in all it was a terrible experience I'd like to prevent others from having to go through. read more

This place is the place to shop for anything audio on your vechicle. Don't mess around with the other shops off coast hwy, they'll rip you off. Giovanni is extremely helpful with any questions or concerns you may have. Go check this place out, you won't regret it. read more

I needed to upgrade my head unit on my '08 GMC Yukon Hybrid in order to play media from my iPhone 5S. I initially tried Best Buy, but their installers were clueless and basically told me it was not possible with any current head units; although I've seen it done plenty of times on YouTube. Thus, I went to Audio Zone and the knowledgeable Salesperson Mike walked me through the various Pioneer head units that are the only ones currently made to play nice with iPhone 5. We eventually decided on the AVIC-X850BT, but given the complexity of my stock system; Bose, OnStar, rear video monitor w/ wireless headphones, backup camera, etc., the unit was unable to work as I wanted it to. Here comes Gio, the owner, he was only focused on my complete satisfaction (which is unusual nowadays). He upgraded the X850BT to the top of the line Z150BH without any markup. I am now able to play all my music, videos, Netflix, Slingbox, HBO GO, etc. from my iPhone 5S onto the large Z150BH monitor. I can't say enough about the tenacity both these gentlemen showed in order to get my system to integrate with all my stock accessories while getting my iPhone 5S to work. They've earned all my future business and I will highly recommend them to anyone. read more

Customer service was not good at all. Owner had an attitude problem.. he got mad when I change my package deal to something else. Price was higher.. his other employee couldn't answer any of my questions. He was to busy on his phone.. this guy just let 2000 dollars go out the door.. i'm going to get my system somewhere else where I can feel welcome to their store. read more

Not really sure where the negativity is coming from, I have purchased 2 different systems from this location in the past 4 years. The sales team knows their systems and the installation department does a great work. I recommend them from personal experience only. read more

2 more installs later and my system is complete always great service they go above and beyond to make sure the customers are happy Iv brough my family here for full installs. this is literally a place I trust bringing my mom to I'd recommend this spot to anyone who wants a quality system read more

Best audio store in Oceanside, and there's a lot of them. Competitive on pricing and great customer service. Negative reviews must have been from old staff, Giovanni is very helpful and knowledgeable. I am a repeat customer and will continue to go to audio zone for any of my car audio needs read more

Got recommended this place by a friend and there's not much to complain about. Got a sub, box, and amp and it was relatively cheap including installation. Equipment seems to be good quality and a year warranty included. Customer service was awesome. Friendly people in there who like to have a good conversation as well. read more
