They know music, and work very hard to accommodate the needs of musicians and vocalists from every genre, and I've spoken with Soul/R&B, Country, Rock, and Heavy Metal musicians who have made their way through those doors... Always the same feedback: The engineers and sound techs care about quality, and about making sure every artist feels at home, so they can focus on their art, and get creative. Would highly recommend. ​​​​​​​​​​​

I made so many good friends, met so many professional artists with amazing music and installation work , But the most effected aspect of this North End Studios community was all the art and artists that came together and created a place and a platform too collectively express and display their work as well as enjoy new events held here.

They got booted from their original spot on E. Grand Blvd. - the big ten-story citadel with the giant Technicolor waterfall down the side - by some paintball company that doesn't seem to have opened it's doors to the public yet, but if you ask me their new spot is better suited to what they're trying to do anyway. (For one thing they got a bit of heat in that MFer!) And this is coming from a guy who could have a kick ass sauna around the corner if they never moved. It IS a bit strange to me that they're still "North End Studios" when they're no located in the North End. So if you see Katie be sure and point that out to her. You're sure to get a defensive 10 minute rant about it. Cover is always $5 and half the time it seems like they forget to collect it. They really need to get on that, lest this spot go by the wayside like the last one. It's BYOB, though they had a bit of vodker and wine along with a great buffet of food at the Henri Yoki show. The freshly baked crackers and Asian almond dip were outstanding. Henri's prints were okay, and the idea of having guests put thumbtacks by the 5 favorite pieces was fun and democratic, but the sauna shack out back stole the show. I've never been in one before, and it was just what this winter-weary body ordered. I'm told it's just going to be some members only deal from here on out, but I'd pay to get my sweat on if they have another sauna night. That sauna is Big Pimpin'!

Then I spoke to Grace about prints and having more to add to the list. I was making a "scrap book" of a significant trip that I took in honor of my grandfather (right before I found out that he was in hospice) so getting these photos was a big deal. I messed up my own deliverable and needed to edit it and send it back to them to print. I called and they made sure they would put my two separate orders in but package them together for me. Grace was very nice and understanding about this entire thing. I then kept bugging Jake and asked about selling gear (because my stuff is just sitting), so I picked up the prints and brought my DSLR. Jake had my prints ready, and Robert helped me with my camera and lenses I was trying to sell. All went smoothly and they were all so nice. Highly recommend!

The store manager Tom is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He knows what he's talking about and can always point you in the right direction. The showroom up front features all of the sound equipment and there's a lighting room in back to show off all of the awesome fixtures they have. I was very happy with a recent rental of a subwoofer and mixer. The cost was reasonable and they reviewed the item checklist with me when I brought it back. If you can get out to 14 and Dequindre, do it. It's worth the trip.

Long story short, Pro Audio & Lighting worked hand in hand with the manufacture to cover my situation. For a small drop off fee that went towards the repairs, their professionalism was top shelf. To my astonishment, I ended up with brand new speakers. I just wanted to say Thank You Very Much!!  Your customer service is very hard to find.
