Every time I go in here, these guys go out of their way to find me what I need with little pressure to buy the most expensive thing in the shop. They are well educated about what they sell, and let me know what I will be getting for my money. The last time I stopped in, I had lost my remote for my deck (something you can't just buy a replacement for)... they spent a good 15 minutes searching through their whole property until they found me a spare- and gave it to me at no charge. Sweet! read more

Owner is very nice and helpful. Deal directly with him for the best experience

I had a great experience with Stereo Warehouse. After getting a quote from Car Toys a friend of mine suggested I stop by Stereo Warehouse on my way home and they quoted me literally half for more equipment! Install was great and the owner even asked that I come back so that he could make the sound even BETTER, which he did. I had a minor hiccup with the sub and was told to come right in and it was swapped out in a matter of minutes. Great service, great install, I will definitely be back. read more

They did my lc2i and installed it , came out very clean and sound quality was perfect. Definitely will be back here for other parts

Great group, very friendly, no upsell pressure at all. Mike installed a Bluetooth BT-35 unit (bought online) in my '05 Toyota in less than one hour at a fair price. Very clean job, can't even tell where he placed the mic! They tested it thoroughly before handing me the keys, all works perfectly. I'm glad I went here first. read more

They installed my stereo in the wrong compartment and then overcharged me for it ($150, just the stereo install after being told it'd be half that, including parts when I came in a few days before and spoke to the weird owner guy who hit on my girlfriend). When they finished they wouldn't let me leave because some dude working there demanded $20 (cash only) for an adapter...they wouldn't give me my keys and made me walk to some random ATM on Aurora. This was a really bad experience and just so unprofessional, so much so that I just had to write this review in order to quell the cognitive dissonance that this bizarre, unpleasant exchange left me with because I don't ever write reviews but this was just too weird. I feel cheated and swindled and won't be going back and would advise others to not support these thugs. Go to Car Toys across the street, Best Buy or just do it your self. read more

My car had some serious audio issues, they fixed it while we had lunch next door. The employees are fun and all seemed happy. They spent time teaching us all the functions of our new radio. I totally recommend them! read more

Great store for anything your car needs! The owner is down to earth and tells it like it is. I got some speakers for my old car and they worked around the price for some main brand speakers and when I came and got my security system put in they only wanted 200 bucks for a 600 system I found online. The cool thing is I came in at 10am I had to be out of there by 12pm and they worked around it. for them to install is dirt cheap! In summary this place kicks ass and ill be a long time customer here. read more

I purchased a deck on Amazon and took it to Stereo Warehouse for installation. A part was required so they ordered that and once it arrived I took my car in. In just a few hours they did an complete installation and ran a mic up to my mirror for the bluetooth. It was a great job at a reasonable price. I would use them again. read more

Great service. My husband and I came up from Bellingham to get a new stereo system for my GMC and they gave us a great deal and installed it in two hours. I will definitely be going back. Thanks. read more

Stereo Warehouse - The best!!! My son bought a car with a stereo system installed by Car Toys. Needless to say, the system stopped working. We took it to Car Toys but they couldn't figure out what they did wrong when they installed it. To be fair, the technician didnt do anything other than stand there, look at it and check a fuse. While they admitted it was their work product, they refused to look into it further without being paid for an hour of labor. Not only is their policy of fixing their work product, horrible, the customer service we received was equally as bad. We took it to stereo wharehouse, they tested various things associated with the system and found the root of the problem. One of the technicians, Miles, spent a lot of time working with my son to make sure he got it working. They were all very helpful, and their customer service is on point. Car toys could learn a few things from them. I highly recommend Stereo Warehouse!! read more

After some really un-nice jerkfaces stole my car stereo last winter...I was more than ready for some good sound in my car. I checked a few other places in the area; one of the larger chains (you know who I'm talkin' 'bout) wanted to put a really, really nice system in; while completely ignoring the budgetary limit that I had mentioned. When I re-mentioned the budget that I had in mind, the salesperson acted as if that amount of money couldn't buy anything decent. Ugh. I HATE salespeople, I really do. Next, I tried the local Fry's (who I usually love for all things electronica). While the pressure to buy wasn't there, I got the feeling that the workers there (while nice and helpful) were not the most savvy with their product(s). Oh dear... Finally, I saw the light and headed to Stereo Warehouse. I spoke on the phone with Dutton who patiently fielded my questions and was even able to make an appointment for me; same -day service! SWEET! I drove to the store and talked with Dutton. That guy is awesome! You can tell he really cares about what he does...and how he interacts with workers and customers alike. The dude is golden! As I work in the service industry, I know excellent service when I see it. I had brought an aftermarket amp in to be installed; Dutton stated that he would do it; and then pointed out that the brand name on the amp was a fake...so instead of a true MB Quart amplifier, I had a piece of "swap meet" garbage. Dutton's suggestion of going with a smaller in-line amp actually saved me money and time...and I know that it's the brand name that it says on the box. Install was great, too! Took a few hours, but the wait was worth it. The only thing that's super minor...the clock wasn't set. Not even worth mentioning. :) Do yourselves a favor; make Stereo Warehouse your FIRST stop when looking for car electronics! Don't waste time going elsewhere; there's really no need to do so.

Well my story is similar... they installed a amp in my VW. The did not disconnect the battery during the install causing my airbag light to trip. Needless to say they wouldnt fix it because they didnt have the computer to reset the light and would not pay for it because its the risk of installation. They are deffinately a hack shop and would never go back. Do yourself a favor and walk across the street to Car Toys. read more

I bought almost a full new system (door speakers, tweeters, amp, 2 new 12" subs, new subwoofer box) at Car Toys in Lynnwood 2 weeks ago and had to go back numerous times because the subs kept jumping in bass erratically, amp overheating, and distortion in the Focal speakers in the doors. It's been extremely frustrating to say the least. So I went to Stereo Warehouse today because of past experiences years ago and they diagnosed the amp for $40 finding Car Toys over powered the amp and speakers and they made the right adjustments to get everything where it should be. I told them if they fixed the problem with a different amp and speakers I'd be fine with it and return the old components to Car Toys, but Tucker didn't try selling me equipment I didn't need. They just want happy customers. I recommend Stereo Warehouse for your needs and they've given me a reason to give them more business. I would've given 5 stars, but the guy in the install bay was kind of rude. Thanks again guys!!! read more

Fast work. Great prices. They are honest and Knowledgeable on their area. They even refunded some of the money I paid because my radio installation was easier than expected. read more

These guys are awesome! Don't waste your time going anywhere else! I went to Car Toys first to check out a system for my truck, they wanted over $ 3000 for a system. I stopped by stereo warehouse and told them what I wanted in a system. They told me what I needed and had it installed the next day. The price, we'll let's say I paid a fraction of what Car Toys wanted. I won't go anywhere else! read more

Reading the reviews makes me kinda sad. I think this place is for the do it your selfer. I've purchased many speakers here for a good price. Installed them myself, if I had an issue they took care of it, without question. I cannot attest to their install dept. I have never used them. As far as sales and customer service as well as a good price I can recommend these guys. read more

I've gone to stereo warehouse for all my cars. After having another audio shop mess up my subs these guys worked with me and explained everything that they could do and that I should demand the other shop to do. (So I'll save money) I've had three cars done here for speakers and subs and alarms no complaints at all. They have wifi and provide a waiting room with a soda machine. And I ended up blowing my speakers twice and they replaced them with no issues. (Cause it's covered under warranty) I only had to pay for shipping which was like 15 dollars. I've referred friends and family here. It's hard to find a honest family owned and operated Audio shop these days. read more

I was back at SW today. Before I went I checked the latest yelp reviews. I see that the sleazeballs at Car Toys have taken to writing terrible reviews of Stereo Warehouse, said reviews which always prominently mention Car Toys. Do not be fooled. I realize that these reviews aren't all from real people. I, however, am as real as it gets. Anyway, today's visit was for a diagnostic/repair. They whipped my car right in and fixed it in just a few minutes while I waited, for a very reasonable fee. Once again I was delighted. Admittedly, their showroom is a bit lacking. And there isn't an area where I could wait while my car got fixed. But those are truly minor complaints. I recommend Stereo Warehouse over Car Toys any day of the week. read more

Keith at Stereo Warehouse is the most helpful and professional installation tech I've had the pleasure to meet. I've been coming here off and on for years and have had nothing but positive experiences. The staff, and Keith in particular, go out of their way to ensure customer satisfaction. My car is 10X better now. Thanks, Keith! read more

I went there thinking I would have a stereo installed that day. Since my car is an 87 toyota I asked if they could install the stereo I wanted, the guy said, "let me see if we have a kit". So he goes to the other side thinking I don't see him and helps two customers that get there after me, comes back 15 minutes later and says, "we don't have the kit" and walks off. Then I went to cartoys to see if they would have a problem with my car and the guy looks at my car and says "piece of cake". So I got one from them instead. read more

Dropped by Stereo Warehouse on a Sunday morning to see about installing an android head unit I purchased online. Manny and company were very welcoming in the store and very straight forward. Install was half the price of another Seattle competitor. Half. That other competitor had a 4 week waitlist. Stereo Warehouse had it done 1.5 hours after I walked in. ON A SUNDAY. Lifetime warranty on labor. Keith did such a clean job I doubt ill run into any trouble. This is how it's done! Ill be back soon when I save up for putting in a subwoofer. read more

These guys are awesome. I had them install an entire system for me about 4 months ago and just recently Started having problems with the amp. I took it in and they immediately came out to take a look at it. They spent some time fiddling with it and then replaced the amp free of charge. Everybody was super nice, extremely helpful, and made sure I was satisfied with everything sending me on my way without paying for the install or the amp. I would highly recommend stereo warehouse to anybody with any kind of sound system needs. read more

Dutton and his crew were extremely knowledgeable, worked with me to keep everything in budget and even fixed my leaky window gasket! They've earned all 5 gnarly stars in my book. I am one happy customer. read more

Came in for a look to see if they had stereo for my car. Did not want to get something super expensive but was hoping to get it installed by the time we went away for the weekend. The staff was very helpful in finding me components that would work for my budget and for the car. They also talk to me about upgrades that I could do in the future if I chose to do so. They installed it immediately and I was out the door. Great service love this place. read more

These guys are great! I stopped bye the other day to have them look at the stereo in my work truck. I bought it from them a couple of years ago and It had recently quit working on the serius radio mode. Since it was over two years old, I Figured I would just have to buy a new system. The guy looked at it for a couple of seconds then drove it right in to their shop. Within about five minutes, they had it fixed and I was on the road again listening to 70's on 7. NO Charge!! What a great experience! I will continue to buy all of my automotive electronics from them. read more

Good deal on a great stereo. Recently made a trip to stereo warehouse in search of a new car stereo and came home with exactly what i wanted. Told the guy i was looking for HD radio and bluetooth and he showed me a ton of options in my price range. Started looking at Kenwoods and he offered to give me $50 off one that wasnt moving quickly. When asked why he said it was because straight out of the box it wasnt easy to use and required some time spent reading the owners manual, but that it was a better system than some of the others. Absolutely correct. Difficult at first, but once i figured it out works just fine. read more

Just wanted to give these guys a great review, Manny was extremely helpful and patient with us as we where using them to get a device installed. He showed us how everything worked and made sure we knew how to operate it. read more

They really went the extra mile, and the had a much better selection than the other four places we went. I was surprised how awesome this place really was. Thanks guys, nice job. read more

I want to say thanks to Jake the sales guy for helping me figure out the best available option for a new alarm for me. I want to say thanks to AL for the installation job because he was working on a totally custom car and was able to get it done and figure out a few issues along the way in a timely manner. Employees were nice and very helpful and I would definitely use them in the future. Thanks again guys! read more

So here's my story. I used to come in here all the time, I loved it here it's like Toys R Us for audiophiles. But yesterday I came and asked if they could do a remote start install and they said yeah just be here first thing in the morning we don't schedule appointments. So I show up this morning and I was third in line for an install and one of the employees said (some spanish name) can help you. So I waited up front for him for about 20 minutes and finally when he got up here I told him what I wanted done. As soon as he found out what kind of car I was driving, it's known for being a pain in the butt to program a remote start with my car, his attitude totally changed and he took a deep sigh and then he started telling me he could fit me in another day and that the guy that usually does installs isn't here. I told him I have to get it done today because it's my girlfriend's birthday and I wanted to have it done before she gets off work so I can surprise her, and he just kept telling me he can't do it and I should find somewhere else to get it done unless I want to come back in 3 days. The reason I showed up early this morning is so I can get in and get it done. One installer ruined it for me for good. Every other employee that works here goes out of their way to help but this guy doesn't want nothing to do with hard work. I hate to say it but I'm not going to come back here anymore just because of this guy's laziness read more

I got a new radio/CD player installed in my Audi for $500 and change. Before I agreed to the deal, they warned me that the existing steering wheel controls on my car might not be fully compatible with the new system (it turned out that they did work, albeit with a caveat that they explained as soon as I picked up the car). The only complaint I had, which was minor and which they fixed, was that they forgot to give me the owners manual to the new system when I picked up the car (since the box that it came in was sitting on my seat, I assumed that the manual was inside). I called them when I got home, and they agreed to mail it to me, but after some 2 weeks, I still had not received it. I called back and spoke to "Jake", who took full ownership of the issue. He made no excuses, and when he realized that I lived near him, he offered to drop it off on his way home from work. He came by as promised, and even brought a remote for my device, which I did not need. Needless to say, this is the sort of customer service that is hard to find. I hope Jake's boss sees this, too, because he did a stellar job. read more

Thank you Stereo Warehouse!!!! My system sounds great just like you said it would. Your service and install was top shelf!!!! If you are looking for a car stereo you should shop stereo warehouse. Pricing was great and the service was even better. read more

I went to Stereo Warehouse to up grade my amp Dutton helped me out , now my sub woofer is alive made a big difference.

Came here back in March to install a sub and a amp paid over $400 but had no issues and seemed like the work had been done good and clean. About a week ago my system just gave up and had no signal wasn't sure why that had happened but figured everything was gonna be okay since they had a guarantee on their job. Came in today to see if someone could take a look and let me know what was wrong since I walked in the guy who helped me seemed very uninterested in helping me and more interested in talking to other clients. He offered to take a look at my system and see what was going on he came outside took a brief look and said my amp was getting any power, he said to pop the hood open to take a closer look I did that's when another client that he seemed to know showed up he proceeded to walk away and go help him instead he had a small conversation while I was waiting there to be helped again seemed uninterested to help me. He then proceeded to walk back into the store with the other client and told me to wait , I waited about 5-10 min and decided to leave . You would think that after paying $400 for a service they would at least try to help you and pay attention to your needs. Had heard nothing but good things about this place but after this won't be recommending. read more

Hey I LIKE THESE GUY . Came in with very difficult installation that 2 other shop could not handle, The installer Carl stayed late to get my install done! If you like family owned crazy fun with great prices check them out. read more

I was a repeat customer. I've been here twice before. I didn't hesitate in having Stereo Warehouse install a security alarm and stereo system in my week-old brand new car that had no flaws or damage due to working with them before. When I arrived with my boyfriend to pick up our car, the installer told us that he installed an actuator in the driver's side door and didn't bother attempting to install the stereo. During the time our car was in the hands of these professionals, the installer managed to scratch the driver's side window and door handle on the interior, and damaged the dashboard due to his laziness and negligence. When this was brought to the attention of the owner, he offered a referral to a man that could merely repair the damage his employee caused on the dashboard. The owner did not take ownership of the damage to the window and door handle - stating that he saw no reason why his installer would have caused it - despite the fact that the installer told us he had to place an actuator in the door! I called the owner a couple of days later, attempting to discuss the incident and give him the opportunity to make things right. The owner had no interest in speaking to me. He told me to refer to the paperwork that was signed upon leaving the vehicle with them to install the alarm system and stereo. I advised him such a clause does not allow him or his employees to intentionally damage vehicles without repercussion. He asked if I had spoken to the man to whom he referred me regarding repair of the dashboard; when I advised I did not trust his judgment, he said, "Well, I'm sorry to say that you can take it or sue me!" before unceremoniously hanging up on me. I will never go back to this place, nor can I ever recommend anyone else go there because they don't seem to care about customers, only money. read more

Have been here a few times over the years. I am a cheapskate and do my own installs so I'm always looking for a bargain. I have found some here, got some great sounding cheap speakers, and their prices were competitive with internet pricing on the JVC head unit I bought. As stated before, I am a cheapskate, know alot about audio and am picky. Most places don't want to deal with me but these guys were very patient with me. I visited the store several times before buying anything and they were always very helpful and friendly. I ended up buying an amp that I ultimately didn't need and they took it back no problem. The guys at Car Toys sneered at me when I said I'd do my own install, but Stereo Warehouse actually had their installer help me with a few questions I had. I know not everyone gets great service, and that can happen anywhere you go. I was treated with respect by these guys and will definitely be back. read more

Seriously this place is great! My friend has been going here for awhile and recommended it and so I had my first personal encounter with them. Great help, really nice guys! They gave me the best deals and installed new speakers within 30 minutes. These guys really know what they're talking about. I would recommend this place to everyone! read more

Great pricing, great staff. I wish that I had gone there, I had my car alarm and new stereo install at "another stero shop" and I could have saved myself $300 if I had gone to stereo warehouse. read more
