IF only there was a MINUS 25 stars ... that what Frank DESERVES. The screen on my 2011 Panamera died. Frank billed my warranty service on Feb 20, 2025. Got paid by insurance and I paid him $120 above that. He didn't understand that Porsche radios must be programmed to the car's vin. and after two replacement radios, 37 (the actual number) phone calls, and patiently waiting for 6 months for him to figure that out, on June 27th he told me to find someone else to finish the job. Since he started it, the insurance won't pay a reputable company to program it, and Frank, who could get paid for programing it won't finish the job. I'm left with a radio that still doesn't work, and no way to fix it except pay for it myself. After he couldn't just replace the radio, Frank is rude and abrupt. YOU should stay as far away from that place as only possible. read more

I went to see Frank and Jesse at their new location in Wolcott, CT. I wanted some (nice) accent lighting added to the back of my truck. I had not been back to see Frank or Jesse in a few years. Both came out and gave me a personal greeting. This really made me feel special. The job that was done is Excellent! The truck looks great. The nicest part is Frank always calls you into the garage to explain exactly what was done and makes sure you're happy and satisfied with the finished product. I travel from Massachusetts and the drive is well worth it. If you love your vehicle, want expert workmanship with fair pricing and like being treated like you're a part of a family, then this is the place for you! read more

So, I had an install performed at this shop. Their install caused my battery to repeatedly drain. I came in and asked for assistance on 3 separate occasions because anytime I went anywhere, I had to jumpstart the car. After blaming it on the product and not the installation, I called the product manufacturer and they shipped a replacement. The product was replaced but did not resolve the issue. After telling me to go to another shop for service over a request for a refund, they stated that they moved some wires and that it shouldn't be a problem. The installation has NOT been a problem since they corrected THEIR mistake. I returned today after being told I'd get free service because of the mix up and they asked me to go to another shop again because I left a poor review on google. Ratings systems exist because shops who do not maintain professionalism can be held accountable in the eyes of the public. In a scenario where you are beholden to a service provider in order to get a car started because of a shoddy installation, there will be understandable frustration. Snapping at a customer because you own the shop and can is poor service. Asking a customer to find a different shop because they called out YOUR shoddy work is disgusting. Apologizing for that, promising a free service and then pulling that back because you were held accountable in public for losing your temper, is reprehensible. read more

Frank is the best I've done many many cars there no problems with anything absolutely love them and recommend him to the highest remote starts I can't live without it in any car read more

"6 Star Excellence" This is one of the best experiences I've ever had in purchasing something. I began by looking up "Car Audio" on Google and Yelp. Frank's High Fidelity came up with high marks. I stopped in to see what they had available and possibly make an appointment. Jesse was incredible from start to finish. The 2013 Jeep I bought had a Pioneer radio without a CD player. I have a huge collection of CD's so it's a necessity for me to have a CD player in my vehicle. Jesse checked out my system and made a couple suggestions without pushing a hard upsell for their most expensive products. He allowed me to make the decision and he ordered my radio. I brought the Jeep in a week later for the install. While Frank the owner was installing the radio, Jesse took the time to show me everything else they offer in the shop. No crazy upsell. Just a friendly, "Here's what we have and keep us in mind for the future." They offer car audio and video systems, car starters, LED head lights, Weathertech products, truck side steps, and they install and service breathalyzer systems in vehicles for DUI's. Very busy niche for Frank's. Frank and Jesse went above and beyond to make sure my new Pioneer radio was installed perfectly. 5 stars is the most you can give for most reviews. I give Frank's High Fidelity 6 stars. Frank even gave me an extensive tutorial on how to operate the radio. He also said to come back if I have any questions. Now that's great service. read more

Franks High Fidelity - Pioneer Radio from Frank's High Fidelity - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Waterbury, Connecticut

I chose Frank's over a few other options to have my remote car starter installed. It snowed the day of the install causing me to miss my appointment. They were very accommodating and took me in at a later time. The remote was installed in short time while I waited in their showroom. Frank took his time to make sure I understood how it worked. He sells weather tech products there which is a plus! Glad I went there and highly recommend this business . Not once was I asked do a review I just thought it would help others in making the right decision. I would definitely use them again a hidden gem ! read more

These guys are tops in their field! Although I use them for a different service they have always been knowledgeable, informative, courteous and respectful. I have asked them questions, watched them work and even seen a few of their finished results and they are truly the only two I will go to in the future for anything related to my vehicles for accessories. A trustworthy and dedicated shop is hard to find these days so anyone reading these reviews and considering going elsewhere still, stop looking and go see them. For the record I moved here from Delaware 3 years ago so I am in no way related to or an employee of Franks (I've seen false reviews in the past) so until I came to Waterbury I had no knowledge of them. You won't be disappointed in the precision work and final results. read more

Looking for honesty and fairness...not to mention top quality work? Go to Franks. We found them from a review online and drove about 15 miles to try them out. Have had 2 successful installations and treated well. Stopped in this past week on my way back from a business trip. I have AM radio static in my 2008 Highlander Hybrid. Basically told the truth about my situation rather then charge me to diagnose without even having a conversation with technician. FYI my Toyota dealer said "it's probably the radio and will need to be replaced but at least $185 to diagnose". Frank said "that car has an antenna in the rear window and it could be anywhere between there and your radio". We'll be bringing in my daughter's car for a new remote starter soon!!! read more

I went to see Frank after purchasing a Groupon for a remote starter. I drove up from Danbury to Waterbury for this service and was extremely happy with that decision. Frank was very thorough in the process of installing the remote starter and explaining all of the features. Frank was also very helpful in solving an electronic issue I had with my running lights on the vehicle. He went the extra step to make sure that everything was diagnosed and addressed correctly. His prices were very fair and I look forward to working with him on some other issues I'm having with my vehicle. I would highly recommend stopping in to see him as he offers a wide range of electronic accessories for multiple types of vehicles. read more

Couldn't be happier! Purchased a remote starter for a friend for Christmas. They were super professional and respected my wishes to not call and confirm the appt as it was a surprise. While the car was in the shop, they noticed the heater fan was really loud. When they called to say they could order the parts and replace it, they gave me a price that I approved. When we picked up the car, they gave us great news. A critter had climbed inside and left some debri in the fan. They cleaned it out and we were as good as new. We would have never known if they replaced the fan or not. They ended up charging us a fraction of what they originally quoted. Thank you so much! read more

Franks Hifi is top notch. Frank and Jessie are the consummate professionals. Frank was helpful and explained every step of the way my options and what he was facing as he opened up the car. He went the extra mile to make sure everything was installed perfectly to my satisfaction. The showroom offers lots of high end products and an overall positive buying experience without the big box store feeling . I knew I had a pro working on my car. VERY highly recommend these guys for your next audio install. read more

I will recommend Frank's any day!! read more

Frank and team did a fantastic job installing autostart and a new car stereo with CarPlay and XM radio. They integrated the stereo with my onboard entertainment system, steering wheel controls and OnStar. The price was fair and they exceeded my expectations. If you need any audio, video or lightening installed in your vehicle absolutely give Frank a call, you won't regret it. read more
