The attention to detail is what I appreciated the most. The install really looks stock, with no exposed wires or parts. They even build a rack for the new amp and placed that behind the seat where it can not be seen. My system is not a "high end" system at all, but to me it sounds great. If you are looking for an upgrade to your car's audio, JML will take care of you. Josh IMO is a very genuine person, and will tell you straight. I have seen him at car shows around town, and he always remembers my name, and is easy to talk to.

We had our Tesla Model S for about a year, and while the sound was good, it certainly wasn't great…read more During our first consultation with Josh, he showed us around his shop - an extremely clean shop with several state-of-the-art tools - and recommended an environmental package. With this, they basically fill the empty space in the doors with a proprietary material that deadens sound and acts as an insulator for the speakers. The effect of this is difficult to describe, but imagine wearing a cheap pair of earbuds. The sound is typically tinny and lacks any fullness. Now imagine pushing those earbuds into your ears so they are fully insulated by your inner ear and a seal is created. Without the sound leaking outside of the ear, the music becomes much richer, the bass comes out; the earbuds begin to sound like a much more expensive pair without buying anything new! This is the same effect the environmental package provides to a car. In addition to making speakers sound their best, having insulation in your doors also helps with road noise on highways and makes the HVAC system work less. This latter point is especially important for electric cars. After the environmental package, we decided to take it one step further and have subwoofers installed. Josh and team put in custom fabrications for the dual 10" subs and amps, hiding them in the well of the trunk. You can't even tell anything was modified until you turn the radio up. The bass is incredible - it's not the overly boomy type that just makes the car shake and draws attention. Rather, JML installs speakers designed for music that deliver a richness and enhance what you listen to rather than dominate it. Overall, we were extremely happy with our experience working with JML - they truly know what they are doing. We researched quite a bit before going to them, and they were the only ones able to work on a Tesla. This shows that they are constantly learning about new technologies and are industry leaders in car enhancements. They are not inexpensive by any means, but in the end, you get what you pay for. Like most of JML's customers, I'm sure we'll be going back to them in the future.

They were able to set us up with a JVC stereo which was a a great buy. They provided a quick one day install which looks like it came from the factory in the car. They have a tutorial after the install which made the transition easy. If you're in the market to update an old stereo into today's technology I recommend considering this store.

They then stated that he was moved to another location and that they wouldn't be able to book another appointment until next month. They didn't give any warning or notice of this switch up before the day of my appointment. I wasted 40 mins of my time and gas to drive all the way up there, and the employee had literally nothing to offer but bullshit excuses. No compromise nor apology for their unprofessionalism. I will not be getting any work done at this location, and from the looks of it should be shut down.

The only thing that was a variable is that there was a piece that was going to be either about 25 dollars or 90, but wouldn't know until they installed it. Long story short, I walked out having to pay $638.25. When they told me the amount my jaw hit the floor. When I asked why it was so way off from what he quoted me from the last 3 times I spoke with him he said the difference is because of the amount per hour they charged to install it. I said he never told me that the last three times we quoted me. His response, " oh I guess I should have told ya that." No service recovery or anything! In an area where you can choose from many companies that sell auto stereos and accessories, I prefer to deal with ones that are more honest than Phine Designs. I will never step foot in there again.
