I recently inherited a 40-year old Oracle turntable that needed some TLC to get it up and running again. I am so glad I found Deltronics because I wasn't sure if anyone was still around who knew enough to get something like this up and running again. Mike from Deltronics came through and got my turntable up and running after giving it a new belt and cartridge as well as doing the necessary calibration for me. It was about 3 weeks from the time I dropped it off to when it was ready, which was exactly the time they estimated. It seems like Mike is a one-man operation so I am sure he is a busy guy giving each and every item the necessary attention. I got my turntable home and put on some Miles Davis as my first selection. Overall I am very happy with the service I received. Highly recommended. read more

Deltronics Sound - Electronics Near Me - Woodridge, Illinois

Brought in a bit of a curveball CD player with a tube output. Very forthcoming with a price. A bit of trouble sourcing the parts due to being built in the Netherlands but they were insistent on doing it right. It plays flawless and sounds better than ever. Can't say enough about their attention to detail and I'm extremely impressed. They take pride in their workmanship and I wouldn't hesitate to bring in any other repairs I may need. read more

Deceptive business practices. Drop off fee required. No proof that examination was performed or that the item was even looked at. Diagnosis mimicked what I found online. Overpriced repair fees. Extremely poor customer service. Don't take your electronics to this business. Total rip off! read more

Took my pioneer amp in for repairs They contacted me in a few days with an estimate Went ahead with the repair Turn-around time was very good I highly recommend Deltronics Sound for any audio repairs you may have All repairs come with a warranty also read more

I have had numerous receivers, amplifiers, speakers, mixers repaired by Deltronics. There repairs are second to none at a fair price. Today I picked up my vintage Fender Twin Reverb amplifier that I've owned for over 9 years. The sound is significantly better now than at any other time in the past. I wouldn't consider taking my equipment anywhere else! Highly recommended read more

I brought my 1980's Tascam 38 8 track 1/2 tape recorder to Deltronics in Woodridge in January and they replaced the belts and rollers, cleaned it up and got it working for a few hundred dollars. They were great to work with - extremely professional, responsive and efficient. I highly recommend them. read more

I have a Hammond A100 organ with two Leslie speakers. Mike was able to evaluate the Hammond power amp, and the two Leslie speakers. The organ amp had been previously modified. One of the Leslie speakers was a 122 (original to the Organ) and used B+ voltage to switch speed. The other Leslie was a 145 (and much smaller than the 122. I used a preamp/speed switch pedal to operate the 145, for Combo organ use. To make a long story shorter, Mike was able to alter the the pedal to control the 122 Leslie as well as the 145 Leslie which was retired to use B+ speed switch voltage. That allowed me to use both Leslie's with the A100 as well as with the use of the pedal a Hammond portable, i,e., Xk3c etc. Amazing knowledge here on 60 year old equipment, for maybe 200-300 bucks. Also had a couple of Fender Guitar Amps checked out a set to spec values and general maintenance. Well done and nice having a report on the maintenance when it comes to a sale. Next project will be the evaluation of a Pioneer 1250 Receiver circa mid 1970's. has not been turned on in 40 years. I expect that based on its design, monster Capacitors for energy storage that this may also be restored for a fair price. read more

They take a long long time but do a fantastic job. Took my Marshall Jubilee 2550 and it never sounded better. If you don't need it for a while I recommend. read more

I have a Pioneer SX 780 that has sentimental value (my Dad had one like it in the 70s). One day it just went dead. One of the guys at Blue Village Vinyl (GREAT record store, btw) suggested Deltronics. I brought in, and yes, it took 5 weeks but well worth the wait! They fixed the issues (more than one), cleaned the unit, and it sounds brand new! I can't even describe how improved the sound is. The price was reasonable for the amount of work done. Great job, I highly recommend this place! read more

Drove 20 minutes to ask them to replace my needle for my record player only to be told to order one online. Um...aren't you in the service industry? Do you want business? read more

I spilled some suds on my SZ2 controller. A few months later sparks would fly out of the tempo faders while in a dark bar scaring the poop out of me. it's pretty heavy. I did not want to mail to the manufacturer. I brought it into these guys. It took quite some time to get the parts, however for less then $150 they repaired an out of warranty Out of production $2000 piece of equipment NEED I SAY MORE read more

I was struggling with a minor soldering project. I just didn't have the experience or proper tools for the job and I didn't want to screw it up. I visited Deltronics and explained the issue. I was aware that there is a minimum $50 fee for service. Ultimately, it took the technician less than 5 mins, so he waived the fee. He saved me hours of headaches and $50, but now I am a loyal customer. Also, they were very friendly. Thanks Deltronics!! read more

I needed a repair on a high end vacuum tube amplifier. And Mike from Deltronics really came thru. The amp is repaired and sounds fantastic. He really appreciates this caliber of audio and is very knowledgeable on what it takes to repair this type of product. Well done Mike. The amp truly sound amazing. read more

They don't care about repairing your product. They just want to take your money and rip you off

Excellent work on my sansui qrx7001 quadraphonic reciever...sounds fantastic...highly recommended

If you are in a hurry, this is the wrong place for you. This shop is busy for a reason, lots of repeat business. Deltronics repaired 2 vintage Yamaha Stereo Amps for me, one was smoked. It took approximately 4-6 weeks to get the units back, the smoked unit required some additional minor tweaking when I went through it at home. Mike told me to bring it back with my tweak list, without hesitation. The formerly smoked unit not only looks great, but works and sounds great, its resale value went from $100 smoked, to $700 repaired for a cost of $150, not that I will sell it while my hands are still warm. A comparable Class A AB receiver today would cost well over $2000 if you could find anything close in sound quality. Having worked in high-tech electronics for 20+ years, its not how you are treated when things work perfectly, but how you are treated when there is a customer service problem. Mike the owner stands behind his work, even if it takes a couple of trips to fully restore a loved 35 year old Yamaha Receiver. Its fixed when its fixed, calling every 10 minutes wont fix it any faster. The $50 estimate fee is standard at most places, this avoids a line of people stretching around the block wanting freebie analysis of garage sale items. I gladly paid $150 each for my units to be repaired which included the estimate fees. The replacement cost for the Yamaha Integrated amp A AB, is $1800 brand new, the broken unit would have fetched less than $100 on e-bay. I will continue to use this shop. read more

An ignorant bunch. Behind the counter and behind the work bench. Quote wasn't honored, and a supposed few week project took THREE months!!

Went in on the 22 of march to have my DDJ-SR2 looked at ... paid a $50 deposit. Next day they got me a quote . I approved the parts to be ordered from china. April 3rd Unit was cleaned and repaired & ready for pickup . Overall im very pleased with the time frame and service they provided I would definitely go there again ! read more

I took a turntable here to have them look it over and set it up, nothing more than a few simple adjustments. The following week the clueless girl behind the counter called me to claim the stylus was "broken" (it wasn't) and would need to be replaced at significant expense. After I pointed out that this didn't seem right, someone else (Mike?) then called me the next day to say nevermind, it didn't really need that repair and was in fact in more or less good working order. I have no idea what this was about, but it was unsettling to say the least. I went to pick it up only to find they were charging me $100 for a very minor mechanical repair and "cleaning." It must have been on the work bench for all of ten minutes. Amazingly, the tonearm wasn't even properly adjusted. I have no idea how these guys get off charging this kind of price, but I certainly won't be coming here again. read more

I've been a customer of Deltronics for 7 years, and am ALWAYS confident they WILL fix my AKAI reel-to-reel tape deck, and cassette tape deck when needed ... I must say, "THEY KNOW THEIR STUFF" ... FAST service, FAIR and HONEST prices for the specialized work they perform. THIS IS the place, PERIOD! read more

I called Deltronics to see if they were able to fix the voice coil on a vintage JBL 128H speaker. They said they could and price would be flexible depending on damage. I decided to make the 45 minute drive and drop off the speaker. I explained to the lady at the counter that the voice coil sticks and may need replacing. I checked back with them a couple weeks later, they said the speaker was sent out for new surrounds ?? I thought perhaps that the voice coil was not a problem after all. After another week passed, I called again to check on progress, they informed me the voice coil needed replacement and that they were unable to repair it :) WTF! LOL! Then they ask if i want to leave the speaker for recycle ! LOL WTF! This girl had no idea of how rare and impossible to find this speaker is ! So in short, I wasted 4 hours in driving time , 50 dollar service fee, and four weeks for zero return, which would be the amount of stars they deserve. What kind of stereo repair shop cant fix a voice coil ??? None that I care to deal with, they get one star, stay away from these assz clowns! read more

I've had friends bringing their music gear here for decades and singing the praises of deltronics but it wasn't until recently that I had the need for getting a piece of kit fixed by them. I usually just 'make do' with vintage gear and work around the problems but I am starting to see the error of my ways when they can get things back to 100% or better. Yes there is a wait. Because they are the best. They don't mess around either, fair price and no bullshit. I brought them a seriously screwed up synth and it sounds absolutely amazing now. read more

Rude ... I went to Deltronics and inquired about repairs of a Nutone whole house radio. The girl behind the counter had the deer in the headlights look and said, "Nutone" ? I reiterated what a Nutone radio was and someone in back yelled, "NO, we don't work on those". With that I just walked out and left. How ignorant, considering 99 percent of the homes in Downers Grove have Nutone radios! read more

Gets the job done but very misleading; said they have my $2,000 mic done in 3 weeks. I get it back 5 months later at double the repair cost -___- read more

AMAZING!! They brought my vintage Magnavox turntable console back to its original glory! Work was done quickly and price was reasonable. LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

These guys will probably fix any amplifier you really want repaired. I wouldn't ask them to repair any old clock radios though. They got my 44 year old Sherwood amplifier/receiver working like new again. I had lost the left channel completely. I certainly didn't want to have to shop for a new amp/receiver and I didn't have to. And they did it for a reasonable price, too. Thanks for the great work! read more

So my NAD c545bee was acting up again (I hope this is the last of the bugs it has) and I dropped it off at the Deltronics as they are the NAD authorized service center. Wasn't happy about it breaking again but that is electronics (to an extent) I suppose. My last review was about the same player and it having been taken to Deltronics and upon return it has some damage to the faceplate and the turnaround was quite slow. However to their credit Deltronics replaced the faceplate, and the turn around for that was much quicker. The turn around for this latest issue was also quick and I have no complaints. So far I have used deltronics four times, two for this cdp and two for an amp. I have to say that I think they are on the whole very good. read more

Took my Sony wireless transmitter and receiver in for a repair. Did it on timely matter and saved me money and travel going to Chicago

Went in for a power issue with my mint Sony ES Receiver. Came back with a front panel screen issue. Returned with screen panel issue, and it came back with CD skipping issue. Returned for that issue. After many weeks. they forgot to order the part. Tired of their many excuses, I picked it up. This time it came back with radio tuner completely out. Each time the receiver came back with additional scratches and a chipped remote. And now I'm left with a receiver that skips and a non working radio tuner. Not to mention $200 less. The scratches on the outside are an indication of the carelessness of the labor performed on the inside of the unit. read more

I have a vintage quadrophonic receiver that was in dire need of some repairs. I brought this into Deltronics and these guys were good to their word on timing and cost. I got the unit back and could not be happier that it is working like new again. They just don't make units like this any more, and I so wanted to be able to hear its glorious sound again. They did it for me. read more

These guys do good work but they can be rude and annoying to work with. They will do a good job at a fair price and are worth going to. Been a repeat customer for years. Very good with guitar amps and live audio. read more

Very un-positive experience. Had my 1200s serviced here. Asked specifically to get my pitch faders replaced and was told in my estimate that that was the price i was paying to have this done. when i picked them up i had to catch them in the act. They didnt tell meanything about not doin what i asked when i was paying. I asked where are the junk faders u should have replaced? To this they replyed that they did not do what i asked and merely cleaned and oiled the faders. This was not what i asked for or what was told i was paying for. The rca cables i had them replace are enormous and have trouble fitting by my mixer now. They replaced my pop up light with leds and have them mis directed so hardley any light is emitted as well as i am unsure if they even added a new resistor. They bent one of the pitch plates over the green light so it bulges now. They also did not calibrate them when they were finished which appears to be part of what i payed for. Finally they didn t even call me to tell me they were ready after i had expressed urgency. I would not recommend them for your turntables. would give 0 stars read more
