A great experience; fast turnaround on diagnosis with options for going forward. Mikael's service saved me significant money.

NOTE: The store location is permanently closed!!! Contact the owner directly to see if he will repair something from his home in Newton. He is working on a radio for my husband now. The email on his website is still correct. read more

Mikael is wonderful - honest and kind and extremely knowledgable - the older stereo I brought to him for repair had extensive damage to the turntable the tape deck and CD player as well as the speakers and it would have cost more to fix than it cost to purchase - so I decided not to go ahead - and he offered to take it and recycle it for me- I can't say enough good about him- read more

Mikhael was most professional and restored my Pioneer stereo to its original working state. It was quite pleasant working with him, and his charge was most reasonable. read more

Mikhael saved me when I was in a tight spot. I accidentally broke a tiny wire on my turntable, and after calling several audio repair stores, I found either they didn't want to take the job because it was too technically challenging, or the lead time was 4-6 weeks. I gave Mikhael my turntable and the next day it was fixed, and sounding better than ever. All for a very fair price too. Highly recommended! read more

It really doesn't get much better than this. I wouldn't think twice about purchasing any audio equipment from anywhere else than Audio Studio in Brookline. Anything you need or are looking for from simple stuff to more elaborate systems can be acquired here for prices that are really quite good; not to mention you get a several month warranty. I got a turntable a while back, and when something went wrong with it, the owner fixed up for me quickly and without question. Some of the equipment there can't be found anywhere else. It's also quite obvious from having spoken to the owner that he is easily the most knowledgeable source of information regarding newer and vintage equipment. read more

Audio Studio is a wonderland for audiophiles. The store is literally jam-packed with hifi, audiophile equipment. What's even better is that the owner always gives you a fair deal at a fair price. I once brought in a Rotel power amp for a tricky repair, and while it was being fixed he gave me an even better NAD on loan to use in the meanwhile. The speakers (mostly designed and produced by the owner) deliver more high quality bang for the buck than anything you'll find at other, larger stores. And of course the personalized service is incredible. I can't recommend this place enough - spread the word! read more

Service wise, an average shop that is good if you need a needle/cartridge replaced or a belt for your turntable. I brought in a Marantz 2250B that needed some work and the lights replaced. When I brought it in I mentioned the things that needed to be done and emphasized I would like it as if I had just opened the box to this beauty. "Not a problem" i was told. Picked it up 3 weeks later (not a bad turnaround for the work I knew needed to be done). Was told he couldn't do the lights (First disappointment) and all was good. Went home and fired her up. Lights were half working not a surprise as I was told this. But the thing that got me was the issue I really brought it in for. The intermittent drop of signal from the Phono was still an issue. Also the face plate was still dirty, a minor detail but still a pay attention to detail aesthetic. A tell-tale sign of what I didn't see. The only reason I brought it here was it was close to home and Another Repair Shop in Cambridge, which I have seen work done and was impressed with was super busy at the time and in the middle of a location change. So being impatient I said why not. Don't want to say much more but I did get my equipment in to the other Repair Shop and wow! I would have paid the combined price of Audio Studio and Q-Audio's service fee for what he (Other Repair Shop) did. Picked it up and a total different experience. A man that takes pride in his work by keeping me there to plug it in and take off the panel to show me the inside and walk me through what he did and why. Out of the Box is what I got the second time. To be fair I did call Audio Studio to express my concerns and he said to bring it right in to address them. I feel that when the initial concerns are not met, why spend more money or time even if the second repair is free. So I went where I wanted from the beginning. read more

This is the second time I turned to Audio Studio to source me hard to find parts. Mikhael of Audio Studio is quick to respond, friendly as heck and quick to ship. And the prices were very good. I am looking forward to visiting the shop in the near future. read more

I am grateful to Mikhael for putting together an older stereo system but one that worked and is less likely to fall apart than newer stuff. It is a great system. He provided me with higher end used speakers at a reasonable cost. I am so grateful. I now have my 5x CD changer working, turntable, tuner, and great speakers. At a reasonable cost versus others who wanted to sell me all new everything at $$$$$$. read more

Mikhael did a wonderful job restoring my KLH Model 35 which included a difficult Dual 1214 turntable. He also did a fantastic job repairing my Linn preamp. I am planning many more vintage restoration with Mikhael read more

I went to Audio Studio looking for a record player for my boyfriend for Valentines Day. Entering knowing very little about audio equipment in general, the owner was super polite, friendly, and very helpful. He located a slightly used record player for me, fixed it up, and even gave me a free spare cover for it. I told the owner I was going to be out of the area for a few days, but to please contact me when it was all ready to go. He agreed with no problem, even telling me he could stay extra hours, or come in on a day when the store was usually closed; whatever was most convenient for me. 5 stars for Audio Studio! read more

This place is great for the pickiest audiophiles or someone who knows nothing about vintage audio equipment. The owner is incredibly helpful and was happy to answer any question I had. Great prices too! read more

Hello all of you audio sale customers. I have great news for you. Stop looking. Start booking. This man is cooking. So let me tell you my story, I hope it won't be too boring. I was in a real bind, because my record player wouldn't keep time, and there was no one I could find, that would be so kind, as to get my record player back in line. But he did. So you should take a trip over to 4 Brington Rd. if you're in a fix. Hope this helped answer your questions. Woohoo! As good as it gets! read more
