Amplifiers

I loved the pricing. I had called a few places to get the best deal, and this spot had the best pricing by far--so if that's all you care about, then this is the place to go. However, after a few weeks of using my new Alpine speakers, I have two issues. First, I did not appreciate that they turned off the bass on my amplifiers, essentially pushing me toward getting a set of subwoofers. I'm a salesman myself, and while I don't play dirty like that, I understand why they did it. Second--and this is the main reason I'm leaving just 3 stars--the installation of my amplifiers was completely unprofessional. I was never told they would need to cut into the original carpet of my car. I had a sound system installed in my previous car, and they didn't have to do that at all. Not only that, but the job looks messy--my mats no longer sit properly, and it's frustrating because the work simply wasn't done as cleanly as it should have been.

Our new screen! The old one was old and didn't work.

We have a 2017 Jeep that needed a new screen with Apple play, a backup camera and speakers and we are SO thankful we were referred to Harbor Sound. When we walked in we explained what we needed, they showed us our options (not trying to over sell us) and the pricing was much better than what we expected. When our jeep was ready we were walked to the car and they showed us how to use the new equipment and made sure we were happy with the outcome which we are! Everyone had great customer service, listened to our needs and you could tell they were proud of their work. I highly recommend Harbor Sound.

Work

Beware this place claims they provide warranty for window tint and they don't! They will claim that they won't charge you for material but they have to charge labor. It's the second time I replace the back windshield of my infinity and it keeps pealing off or orange dots on the outside.

My terrible installment job

Owner Jimmy does not care about customer service. Said his guys could install. This is what I get back. I had to tell them to take it back in because and adjust the skirts because one was out further then the other (Rush job) And then they tell me oh we don't want to cut the shirt and make it fit flush. What do you think jimmy said......he got his money already. He don't care. If your a person of color or white. Do not recommend. They will hate and shoot your car out with BS.

They did a good job

See all

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the friendly, helpful staff, fair pricing, and a comfortable waiting area.

They do fast and good work. The two tire changes were a much better price than other quotes in the area. I will definitely go back to them.

I ended up coming down to Bristol Sound in Santa Ana with my daughter, who was getting new speakers…read moreand a dash cam installed in her Dodge Charger. I had actually heard about this place from friends who recommended it to me a few years ago, and now I understand why. I was very impressed with the large selection of inventory and, more importantly making sure we were happy with everything before we left. The entire staff was accommodating and friendly, especially ALEX. He was very knowledgeable, took his time explaining everything to my daughter, and made sure she understood exactly what was being done and what her options were. The work was completed quickly, everything was done very clean and professionally, and a great deal. They even gave us a couple of T-shirts, which was a nice touch. Overall, we had a great experience from beginning to end. It is hard to find a business that combines good prices, knowledgeable employees, a large selection, and genuinely good customer service. I would recommend Bristol Sound to anyone looking to have this kind of work done on their vehicle.

BRISTOL SOUND IS THE REAL DEAL!…read more I recently purchased a 2027 vehicle and brought it to Alex and his team at Bristol Sound in Santa Ana to completely upgrade the look and sound and WOW... they absolutely delivered! I had window tint installed all the way around, including the windshield, subwoofers, and 24" rims and tires, and let me tell you... SHE LOOKS AMAZING! The transformation is incredible, and the work speaks for itself. What really stood out to me was the entire experience. Alex and his staff were knowledgeable, honest, professional, and extremely easy to communicate with. They kept me informed throughout the process, gave me a great price, and most importantly, the workmanship was impeccable. You can tell they take pride in what they do and don't cut corners. The attention to detail was on point, everything was done with precision, and the final result exceeded my expectations. Definitely 10 STARS If you're looking to upgrade your vehicle whether it's tint, wheels, sound, or a complete transformation I highly recommend Bristol Sound in Santa Ana! Take your vehicle to Alex and his team. You'll be glad you did!

Some said they couldn't do it, some shops didn't look like they would do a great job, but luckily I found Sorena on Yelp and checked out their work on their Instagram and gave them a try. Sam and his team were friendly and courteous right from the start. w We went over exactly where the cameras would be mounted, how they would be wiring it, and how long it would take. I am so pleased with the final result because the look is super clean, wiring was hidden and professionally done, and everything was completed sooner than I was anticipating. Their shop is very clean, which is always a great sign of people who are precise and pay attention to the details, and I drove away a happy customer. They also do other work/service such as starlights in the ceiling, interior ambient lighting, wraps, audio and sound systems, and they also carry dash cams as well. I definitely recommend them for their outstanding work and service, if I could give higher than 5 stars, I would.

I scheduled the appointment to have a 12.3 Android Car Play unit in my Mercedes-Benz. I showed up this morning and met with Arian, a true professional at his trade as well as a kind, honest and knowledgeable individual. The shop is meticulously maintained and has a vast array of tools, work bench areas, awesome LED ceiling lighting, a waiting area, front office and conference/training room. This shop and team of professionals are a class act. Arian explained the installation process and timeline and I was quite impressed. The Rolls Royce in the shop that was getting customized with lighting and sound was a testament to the quality of work that Arian, Sam and the other team members provide when you bring your car into the shop. Arian called me when the car was completed and when I arrived gave me a very thorough orientation on the features, modes and operational functionality of the new unit. Very impressive and truly a plus when you have such a professional take the time to show you the details and functions of the new unit. Sam was in the shop as well as was amazing. Great customer service! These guys not only know their business and have vast knowledge of car Audio and accessories but are transparent, kind and informative professionals. Sam showed me the lighting in the Rolls Royce and also a few options that can be installed on the Mercedes-Benz. I opted for the very nice AMG entry lighting. Very cool. If you are looking for the best in the business relative to car Audio, Video and accessories you must call Sorena Car Audio and speak with Sam or Arian. This is my second review which I am labeling Phase II completion, as I did review them previously after initial contact simply due to the professionalism, knowledge, customer service and other posted industry reviews. Sorena is simply the best and I highly recommend this amazing team of professionals.

Within 5 minutes of Joe looking at it, he was able to identify what was wrong with the radio. He wasnt able to fix it because the radio needed to be replaced. But they scheduled me for the install when my replacment part came. Within the same week my replacment part came in and they were able to squeeze me in to get the new radio installed and replaced. The price was fair and affordable especially compared to other local quotes. Thank you again Hank, Anthony, Joe & The rest of the team for all of your help. Everyone was amazing and very good at their job. I would come back here anytime and reccomend this place to anyone needing car audio help.

CAUTION: Unlicensed Activity & Refused Refund I wish there…read moreis option for NON star which this store should not have any. I am writing this to warn other consumers about my experience with Stereo Blvd. I paid $2,800 on 10/25/2025 for work that was never completed. As of March 2026, the owner (Hank) still refuses to refund my $1,800 balance and has tried to delay and postpone to complete the work on my vehicle for 5 months. According to the California Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA), this business is operating on a CANCELLED license (see attached screenshot from DCA archives showing it was cancelled in 2009). Additionally, they are performing tire and rim installations without the required Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) registration. A formal state investigation is currently active with the Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS Case #252602346). BAR (The Bureau of Automotive Repair) complaint confirmation reference number 65CF-MQX7MX for performing Wheel/Rim without license. Please verify any business license at search.dca.ca.gov before handing over your money. Do NOT make same mistake like mine and DO NOT believe in the owner's sweet talk but DO your thorough research and shopping ahead. ***UPDATE: In his response, the owner blames my Tesla's "16V lithium battery" for his failure. This is a massive red flag for any EV owner. The 16V system has been the standard in Teslas since 2022. By blaming the battery now, he is admitting he lacked the basic technical knowledge to work on my car, despite luring me into a $2,800 "parts deposit" by claiming he had done many of these before. A true professional would know that specialized EV audio components (like Alpine's Tesla-specific kits) are designed for this exact voltage. He took the money for a job he wasn't qualified to perform, stalled for weeks, and still hasn't provided a refund. Stay away if you own a modern EV. ***Now since I have filed complaint with California Bureau of Household Goods and Services and Bureau of Automotive Repair, the owner Hank response with "wait and see" attitude rather than issuing me the refund!
