I've been to Car-Fi before for a new radio and speakers. I wore the Alpine radio out they installed…read moreafter about 7 years and was due for a new one. I had already worn out the OEM radio before that. In addition, I had some problems with an intermittent short that cut the sound out when I turned left, or accelerated. So, they got me into a new radio with all the bells and whistles, and it played fine, but after a day or so, the sound started cutting out again. I made another appointment and they said they would try to analyze it, but warned that it could be expensive. I get it. So, I took the car in. I had also purchased a set of speakers from them about 6 months before. I explained all the issues to the people at the desk and they took my keys and gave them to the tech. After an hour or so, they were able to reproduce the problem, but couldn't find the issue causing it. Then the sales people brought in the tech where I was waiting, and I explained to the tech what was happening. The tech didn't know that Car-Fi had also installed the speakers in the door, even though I told the sales people that. So, they were not communicating effectively with their staff. So they told me there wasn't enough time to work more on it at that time, and gave me an appointment for later that day. I came in then, and they worked on it, found the cause of the issues, and because it was their equipment they installed that seemed to be the problem, I didn't pay anything for the repair. They replaced all the wiring in the driver's side door. That fixed it. Some people would say this was a bad experience, but I say that difficult problems like intermittent ones, don't solve easily and when the techs had the right information, they proceeded with the repair. And they took responsibility for the work they did previously. I say, Job Well Done.

I called and asked for an estimate to install my stereo and one 10" sub enclosed in a box. I had…read moreall of the equipment and the wiring kit already, just needed it hooked up. They told me prices --started-- at $500 and would go up from there, depending on what kind of sub I had. ... I paid under $500 for my entire system including the wire and dash kit. They said it would take at least 4-6 hours at $125/hr. $5-600 to hook up one sub!?? That's zero equipment or accessories included!!?!! Like, what!?? My neighbor found out I needed help and installed all of it in 2 hours- taking smoke and chat breaks in between- it sounds great, he did great, I paid him $100 for his time & help, everybody's happy. Sorry guys but that may be the reason your cousins went out of business...... ... just sayin

Rick and his team are best in class and by far the only recommendation you need when dealing with…read moreany car audio needs! He is the most honest person in this industry you will meet

I am warning everyone. DO NOT GO HERE!!! He is a SCAM Artist!! He blew up my brand new amp and…read morecharged me $300 to do it!!! Rick scammed me out of over $500!!!! I first called Rick to get an install quote. He quoted $200 for parts & labor but then he charged me just under $300!! He didn't even give me an itemized receipt so I have no warranty!! It gets worse. A few minutes after I left my bass quit. He told me he couldn't look at it cuz it was close to 5:00. Wow. REALLY?? So I looked for another shop to fix it. I went to a shop called Audiophile in Springfield since they are open until 8:00 pm. They offered to look at my system for free to see why my subs weren't working and they immediately saw that my amp was hooked up wrong! They showed me that the cables were plugged into the outputs instead of the inputs! Rick Smith blew my brand new amp and he isn't even going to pay for it!! He screwed me and my kids out of $500!!!!! Amazon only covers warranty for 30 days and now I am screwed out of all my money! Audiophile sold me a larger amp for less money than Amazon and it has a 2 YEAR warranty!! Audiophile felt bad for me they installed the new amp for free!! Audiophile also gave me an itemized receipt which Rick refused to do. Audiophile told me that they would have charged me only $150 for the same installation that Rick charged almost $300 for!!! Rick's need to be shut down!!
