I have a lifted 2017 Ford F-250, and wanted to have a top notch stereo installed. I had heard a lot of good things about Earmark Car Audio, as they have been in Plano for as long as I can remember. If you want the best of the best, do not go to Car Toys. Earmark has the best equipment, and tailors the system to exactly what you are looking for. Earmark solders all of their connections, which is the best way to prvcent future issues with bad connections. Anyone that has heard my system, is amazed, and says they have never heard anything as good. After my installation, I had to bring the vehicle back for minor adjustments. They were very happy to assist after the purchase, to ensure I was happy. Matt was my sales person. He is super cool, and always makes me feel like an important customer. Focal is the brand I went with, as far as speakers and amps go. I left the stock head unit. Definitely do the sound dampening as it makes a huge difference. I recommend getting a Sony Walkman as digital music sounds far better that radio or satellite radio. read more

Went in for a car alarm that was not working correctly. Guys looked it over and reflashed the module and it works perfectly. Was there about 15min. Thanks for the prompt professional service. read more

Chris and the rest of the team at Earmark are some of the most professional and friendly people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. They not only are consistently communicative and friendly to speak to, but take great pride in their work, and will only recommend products and services they personally would put their names on. When you take your business here, you can expect amazing customer service, professional expertise, and results worth every penny. If you want a job done the right way, and custom audio work that's going to last, I wouldn't recommend any other place. read more

Management is only concerned about taking the most money from you as possible. They also scratched my vehicle when they did my tint. Would not recommend this shop unless you don't mind spending more money than necessary. read more

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Team Earmark Car Audio. The door speakers with tweeters that were installed sound great! From the initial consultation with Chris I knew I selected the correct audio company to take care of business with no errors. Not only did they demonstrate exceptional technical skill, but they also exhibited a genuine and commitment to customer satisfaction. There was an issue that needed my approval, and instead of them doing what they thought would work they wanted to get my eyes on what they were going to do before they did it. The quality of the workmanship is evident in the performance of the speakers, with nine has my driving experience significantly. I am thrilled with the outcome, and couldn't be happier with the service provided by Earmark. read more

These guys have done some custom work for me before, but this is the first time I've given them one of my cars for a couple days to go whole hog. I went in looking for a louder horn than factory for my Toyota Corolla and Matthew kept insisting on a train horn. While I didn't want to do this at first, man am I glad I changed my mind. Originally we thought the air compressor and air tank would have to be mounted in the trunk, which I wasn't super excited about. I dropped by the day after I dropped it off just to see how it was going and the installer, Javier, took me to the back to discuss some installation options. He had already removed my front bumper cover and was showing me how he could get everything mounted under the front bumper cover if I wanted, but would require some custom work. BRILLIANT! I told him to go ahead and do it and couldn't be more excited for the end result. When I went to pick it up, it was amazing. Louder than I imagined and completely hidden. The pros at Earmark made driving in traffic enjoyable and the best part is, everything is completely hidden. If you give these guys a little bit of trust to customize your ride you will absolutely not be disappointed. I can't imagine anyone going anywhere else for their miscellaneous car audio/install needs, or any other ignorant add-ons like mine. I attached a couple pictures of the hidden horn(s). True professionals. read more

Jim was awesome! They did a great tint job on my boat. I plan to come back to add more speakers! Was almost $600 but it looks great, worth it. read more

A year and a half ago Earmark was recommended to me for a new car stereo. We got an install the same day I called. The salesman listened to me and sold me a stereo that exactly suited my needs. It wasn't cheap but he didn't try to upsell me into something I didn't want or need and couldn't afford. The salesman was kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. The installation was seamless. We left, entertained ourselves a couple hours, got a call to come back and it was done. A short demonstration later and we were on our way. I feel regretful I didn't leave a five star review then because it was deserved. Life got away from me. They continue to earn their five stars today; yesterday the stereo lost power, not sure why yet. One phone call and the gentleman asked some intelligent questions, searched up the transaction and a few minutes later I'm scheduled for Saturday. I'm so grateful that I went through Earmark and not some big box something or other, and that I get to benefit from their excellent service! read more

Had a JL audio system installed in my new bronco. Sounds amazing and had my install completed in a timely manner.

I called ahead to make an appointment to get my windshield tinted and asked specifically about COVID-19 precautions. Johnny indicated that they were following COVID-19 precautions. He mentioned that there would not be any other customers waiting during my service time, so I would have the waiting room to myself. When I went to my appointment, none of the employees were wearing masks. Also, the waiting room is an open area right next to the entrance, so not isolated. This would not normally be an issue, except the business obviously does not practice COVID-19 precautions such as wearing a face mask at all times inside the store. They should have been clear at the get-go that they were not following COVID-19 precautions when I inquired, instead of wasting my time during a work day to bring my car in. read more

I had all my speakers upgraded when I blew my factory rear speaker. They talked me through the process, costs and expectations quickly and I was ready to roll now even two hours later that same day! Chris took care of me and the install was clean and I can once again rock to the sounds of cowboys sports radio! I highly recommend these guys! read more

Johnny at Earmark Car Audio made our experience a great one. Parts arrived within a week. They installed Apple Car Play and Rear View Back Up Camera for our teenagers first car in less than 8 hours. A day later we had trouble (user error) with the software connection for the car play, but took it back to Johnny and he was so patient with us to show us in full detail how to connect with ease. I love the fact that they fully stand behind their product and it comes with a great warranty. We will certainly return to them for any additional needs of products they offer. We highly recommend Earmark Car Audio in Plano. Go see Johnny! read more

I've passed by this location hundreds of times without knowing or caring what they did. However, recently purchasing a used car with a horrible sound system, I started searching. Earmark stood out for their service. So, I gave them a try and was not disappointed. I worked with Allan Johnson who helped me choose the proper wireless tuner, amp and woofer. While installing, they also noted a rat had chewed through several wires which attributed to issues I had with the car. They fixed those as well. I'm now driving through town and enjoying my tunes and podcasts, thanks to Earmark! read more

My first visit was a little pricey to get my factory amp checked out. They did not fix it, but they were friendly and knowledgeable in how my amplifier got messed up. I decided to try them again when I wanted to install an amplifier and subs. They are not supposed to work on equipment they don't sell, since I was looking to go the cheaper route Chris was able to sell me all the wires and parts I needed and helped explain everything I needed in order to get a good quality sound system. He even went as far as printing me the factory wire diagram. Overall a bit pricey, but what car installation place isn't, but the guys are great, and are willing to do what it takes for professional/friendly customer service. read more

My husband and I just got some work done on our truck by these guys. The store is really well organized and clean. The displays are really cool of all of the different sound systems they have. The employees seem to be really chill and willing to work with the customers. They know the products they sell very well and answered all of the questions my husband had to ask. Big pet-pee I have is a clean restroom and yes it is very clean. Keep up the good work you all. read more

Very satisfied overall with everything: customer service, quality of the job and pricing! Thank you very much, guys, for your work and patience! read more

I had an amazing experience working with the guys at Earmark Car Audio. Matthew was all around friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He helped me to select the best door speaker, sub and amplifier combo to fit my Mini convertible and my taste in music. To my surprise, he was able to save me hundreds by taking the time to find an alternative to a custom built sub box for my tiny trunk. Also, the techs did a seamless install and they even worked a couple hours beyond store closing on a Saturday to deliver same day despite the challenges my Mini's cabin space brought them. Thanks to these guys, I smile ear to ear each time I start my car. If you want the best quality stereo equipment and install, take your car here! These guys will go out of their way to take care of you! read more

Rep quoted 3500 to install 4 speakers and a JL amp/sub combo. Price seemed astronomically high, and when I asked for an itemized list to see costs associated (parts/labor) he replied "No we don't do that... You already told me you might order all the parts yourself and I'm NOT gonna give you a grocery list". Then he stood there in silence. I nearly backed out the door in slow motion like that Homer Simpson meme. Not sure why the guy was so rude but that was by far the oddest (lack of) customer service experience ever. read more

They were over priced. They wrote me up a quote then when I tried to leave they asked for it back. They literally wouldn't let me leave with the piece of paper. They said it was 'their property.' I found that to be a little bit of an unusual experience. $1,300 quote to install a $300 8 inch powered subwoofer? read more

Definitely the shop to go to. Excellent work and service. They are always communicating and available for questions, concerns etc. I had my IGLA/Compustar done through them and thry were awesome. And the staff were always in touch with me to answer my questions and to check up on me even after the work was done and paid!!! Would recommend the shop 100% read more

Excellent quality and service. Got my windows tinted here and they were quick, professional, and great prices for quality film

Are you kidding me?!? These guys are on spot with quality and customer service. The Llumar Stratos tint can only be found here in all of Dallas and their price beats the dealer in Ft Worth! The Stratos tint makes my car so cool that I only have to keep my AC fan on the lowest speed and it's 85 out! Matthew did an amazing job setting me up, keeping great communication with me and the tech did an impeccable job installing front windshield, all side windows and moonroof. These guys are second to none! read more

Went here for tint - price was a little higher than the competition but they had openings the same day which is why I selected them. In terms of the tint - they did a great job from what I can see. The thing that I didn't like is that they under estimated the time by several hours which was the reason why I came in to them versus their competitors as it seemed like it would be a quick job to tint just my front two windows. Sales Rep was overall nice & knowledgeable. He tried to upsell me on speakers and getting tint to the rest of the car but wasn't overly pushy. I have used them in the past to install my blackvue dash cam - same experience around good install but considerably higher than average prices if you shop around. read more

I took my brand-new Mazda to them to get remote start installed. Worked with Johnny and he was super helpful! He helped me learn the differences between the systems and their app interfaces and wasn't pushy when I told him what I did and did not want. Super helpful guy and I love my new remote start system! read more

Earmark Car Audio & Tint - Plano folks after being a customer of Earmark Car Audio for 35 years, I'd recommend everyone avoid them now. Johnny at their front desk seems to think he can say whatever condescending remarks he wants to customers without repercussions! I've watched this place get run into the ground since he started. I've been lied to and spoken to in the worst major way from him. It's sad it's come to this because this place used to be about quality and customer service but now I wouldn't bother giving them a single dollar for the way they treat their customers and it starts right at their front desk interfacing with this tool named Johnny! He actually bragged about how much more he charges the customers now! There is no reason to talk down to customers the way he does like he is Earmark himself. After sharing my experience on their FB page they blocked me so I'd have to assume Johnny has access to that on the facebook group because what decent business would do that without following up with the customer that has reported these concerns. read more

Matthew set me up with tint on my 2018 430i for a really reasonable price. I am extremely happy with the install. If you know anything about tinting BMWs, you know that the microdots in the windows are a pain to deal with, and the 4 series seems to have more of them than any of their other cars. After 4 days, the tint seems to be adhering to the dots more nicely than any of the tint jobs I've had done at other shops on my previous cars. I had them do 15% Llumar FormulaOne Pinnacle tint on the rear windows, 30% on the front side windows, and 80% Llumar Air on the sunroof and front windshield. WOW. The product is excellent, it really rejects heat. The install on the front window is especially impressive given how difficult it can be to install tint without any type of haze. After a few days, lights through the front window are perfectly clear at night and you can only really tell the tint is there if you're looking at an extreme angle, it really appears perfectly clear. I've heard horror stories about tint on the front windshield; overall I'm really glad that I listened to Matthew's suggestion to have the windshield done as well. They also do impressive jobs installing paint protection film; it's a little pricy but I am seriously considering bringing my car back to have it installed. read more

Normally, I'd have done this myself...but with the cash spent on the nice "new to me" 2015 Lexus, I didn't want to mess up my really nice interior. So I came to Earmark to have them hide the power cord for my dash cam. Was easy to setup the appointment and they explained the costs involved and what parts would be needed. The coolest thing was, they didn't do any wire cutting/splicing/soldering. Just used a 12v power outlet that plugs into a fuse socket. Power cord is now hidden and the car looks even better now without that silly power cord hanging from the mirror. Great job and great service provided! read more

I took my 2014 Jeep Wrangler in a few weeks ago to discuss some options for a sub and an amplifier. I wasn't very knowledgeable about how it would all work and the options I had with the limited space in the back of my Jeep. Matt gave me a few options and after thinking about it and going over my budget I decided to go ahead and do the install. I dropped it off and the guys got to work. I picked it up just before closing and the guys were more than happy to go over everything with me and make the proper adjustments based on my music preferences. Man I could not be happier with the install and equipment the put in. Everything sounds amazing and is tucked away nicely. I'll be back in the future for my next Jeep project. Thanks to all the guys at Earmark in Plano for helping me get exactly what I wanted.. read more

This place will rock your socks off. They've got all sorts of cool things you can add to your vehicle-- such as but not limited to: train horns, LED lights, speakers/sub woofers and tint. I come here every so often just to swing by and say hey to the employees since they're so chill (Both Chris' especially). The pricing for what you're getting is great too. This earmark is phenomenal. I'd also like to mention the restrooms. They're clean as can be. I enjoy this place much more than CarToys. Give them a shot at upgrading your vehicle first rather than another company. read more

I have a custom hot rod milk truck, and I wanted to be able to listen to my R Kelly at full volume, but don't want to have a faceplate, because my iPhone is the best DJ I know. I went in to see these guys and we came up with exactly what I wanted - an amplifier designed for marine use with bluetooth connection to an iPhone (or any other bluetooth mo3 player) and all i ended up being able to see was the control knob, which blends in discreetly. Their ideas were spot on, and I just sat back and let the experts put their years of experience to work for me. I am really pleased, and now I can share my Public Enemy with the world, as it should be. Top notch. read more

Worse Service Ever - Was completely Ripped off. Paid $600 cash for a part that took 6 months to get in and set up for service than after having my BMW 2 days I call only to be told to come get my car they can't successfully install the part the insured would work. So I go to pick up my BMW I askew for my refund and they cannot provided it at this time because they don't have the funds available to do. I'll have to wait on a check someday. I tried to speak to the owner only to get further frustrated and realize the person I was speaking with was and idiot and a shyster. So if you are looking for terrible customer service and to be ripped off than go here. if not I suggest the Lewisville location - Not owned by the same person and those guys can get the job done and cheaper -go figure - Still waiting on the magical $600.00 check Awful awful awful awful awful awful read more

Chris, Ben, and the rest of the crew at Earmark are first class. Top notch customer service, installation, and competitive pricing are what you get here every time. I bought my first car stereo at Earmark in 1992. I bought my most recent in 2018. You don't stay in business this long if you are not good at what you do. Thank you Earmark crew for taking care of me. read more

Chris and the team at Earmark are great. I recently had two of our cars tinted there. My son's was a challenge because it had previously been tinted in Oklahoma and could not pass Texas inspection. Earmark removed the old tint and reinstalled new ceramic Formula I tint. What a difference! It really holds out the heat. I have one more car that I will definitely be taking back to them next week. read more

Called Earmark to help with a satellite install that the car dealer was reimbursing me for. Matthew and Ben were so helpful and patient answering my questions. read more

A Big Thank You!! -To Odin Mattes and his awesome team at EARMARK for my new UV blocking window tint. It looks great and was a great experience from beginning to end with him, and his knowledgeable and friendly staff! read more

Chris is great! He's more concerned with the quality of your new setup (subs, speakers, radio) than he is with the dollar amount while also taking into consideration the cost of everything. I never felt pressured to spend more or pushed into a direction I didn't want to go. He explained the entire process from beginning to end without making you feel like he has better things to do. He's transparent with the process of installation and gives honest feedback when asked. I would, and have, recommended him to friends and family. read more

The team here at Earmark do not disappoint! They truly deliver nothing but the best in quality sound and installation. Ben wasn't lying when he said that I'd cry from how good my Focal sound system was going to sound! It is like angels singing next to your ears! And don't get me started on how loud and clear I can crank up the sound to! Definitely worth the money I spent and no regrets. read more

My fourth trip to the Plano location. I love their work. Chris , Alan, and Ben are great. Go for the top-of-line Pinnacle tint(ceramic). When the tint fully cures, it is amazing. A previous visit they installed a flip-open DVD screen in my van. Wired in a small amp to work with existing speakers. More great work. You pay for quality and they deliver. read more

Fantastic place. Ben, Chris, Javier....all the guys there. They absolutely know what they are talking about, down to the smallest details. They have done windows in 3 of my cars. Full system in a little convertible. Massively powerful system with custom made sub box for my Hummer and the latest is an incredibly clear yet extremely powerful set up in my Cadillac CTS. Won't go anywhere else, wouldn't trust anyone else to touch my systems. These guys are untouchable! read more

Im super picky about window tint and who I let handle my Mercedes. Mathew assured me that their materials, installers, and equipment was all top notch. I trusted him as I have been in the market for good installers for a year or so now. The customer service Mathew provided to me not only excelled our conversations, but the outcome was absolutely exceptional. I highly recommend earmark Plano, and most definitely ask for Mathew when it comes to knowledge of car accessories. You will NOT be disappointed! read more
