The staff here is very friendly. Not sure about their level of knowledge, as I was simply browsing,…read morebut I would expect that they know what they're talking about. You don't get to be dealers of the high-end products they have here if you only possess Best Buy level knowledge. The staff was very friendly, but not to the point of annoying. They greeted us when we came in, they were fine with the fact that we were just browsing, and they left us alone to look around. They didn't hover, trying to get us to buy something. They didn't watch us like hawks like we were going to break or steal something. One of them asked a few friendly questions when we wandered into the big theater room in the back where he happened to be organizing some items. Nothing pushy at all. While we weren't in the buying mode that day, they treated us very respectfully, and that combined with the fact that they carry some really top notch brands means that when I am in the market to make a purchase, Audio Video Logic will be a candidate for that sale.

Terrible Customer service, Left voice mail to get a quote for a 98-inch TV. No call back. Called…read morethem again and they said they would have to check with best buy first to see what they charge and would call back. No call back. Called again and he said he still had to check with best buy as they have never mounted a 98in TV. Seems really odd they couldn't give me a quote until they checked with best buy. Very unprofessional. I would think they would have mounted many TVS as this is something they state they do and should be able to give me a quote without having to go to best buy.

I have always wanted a truly HI-FI amazing sound system to play my records and cd's on. Someday you will be mine!" Well now you are mine! Yep I got to sit down with the staff from Audio Labs and play some music through multiple sets of receivers, speakers, turntables to find what truly might be the best sounding hi-fi set up for my money.. Mind you I had about 9 times less then I wanted to spend as you read above but I got a really nice new set up for playing music, that fit my budget and that's what I was shooting for! Lots of options and it's cool they take the time and explain what might be best for you! Top notch stuff and top notch customer service.. They event loaded it into my trunk for me!

The latest one was today, for a 10am call. It's 11:28am. Nobody called or reached out; I had to call three different times to get someone live on the phone who didn't see me in the schedule. However, she was able to tell that someone called me on Tuesday and left me a voice mail asking if I wanted them to stop by since they were in the area anyway. So, the natural question I had to ask, "So, I was in the system, right?" I assume he wasn't stopping by to be social. She said it was likely but she didn't know. If anyone knows of a better security company out here, please let me know. I have been dealing with this nonsense for over three years.

Terrible company to deal with. Hired them for a smart home project and have regretted it ever…read moresince. Customer service was excellent at the sales level - at least until they get your money - after that, they could care less. They definitely don't take pride in their work, are slow to deliver, and under-deliver compared to their inflated guarantees (not promises). They say they stand by their work and offer a lifetime guarantee on their work - the thing is they don't - first service call we had took a month and half to schedule then two guys showed up, spend five minutes in the house - said they didn't see a problem and left. I got a bill for an hour service call a week or so later in the mail. This is one of the exceptions to the rule "You get what you pay for."
