Summary
AI Generated from Google reviewsThe business receives strongly positive reviews. Customers frequently praise fast turnaround, fair prices and clean window tint, remote start and stereo installs, and many say they were booked in on short notice. Reviewers highlight subwoofer builds, backup camera installs and staff who explain how a system works. Some negative reviews mention loose wiring, peeling or bubbled tint and a head unit that felt outdated for the price, though most of these are several years old. The owner replies to nearly every review, and the replies to critical reviews are often combative.

These guys are simply the best. I’ve came to them two days in a row with super tight deadlines on stuff I needed done and they got me in and out super quick. And the quality of work is second to none. I highly recommend to anyone in need of car audio installs or products

Thought they did a good job at first than realized my girl paid almost 1000$ for a outdated stereo that still has iPod on it and I couldn’t even get the rear camera installed without paying extra luckily for them it was a gift so I couldn’t check nothing out myself or I would’ve never proceeded business with my 2016 ram and it’s probably a early 2000s radio janky as hell even when someone calls and I hang up it keeps ringing through paid way too much I’ll be using YouTube next time

Bought a remote car starter. Worked more than a ¼ mile away. Worked from inside hospitals, huge buildings and still went through malls. I damaged the remote couple months ago. Took Dodge Ram back to John Downtown Sound today. Less than 1 hr he had a new remote programmed and I can turn the A/C on to cool this truck off before I even get in it. I won't take my vehicles anywhere else!

Called about getting a radio and my subs installed on my 2010 jeep patriot. Was told to come in and they could start it right away and was greeted like they knew me from the start. All around good service was upfront about everything didnt try to hide anything or swindle the cost of anything explain what costed what and was fast. All around great service and setup sounds amazing. Thank you very much again love my new set up.

I had an 05 Chevy that was a mess from one guy putting a system in it and another guy ripping it out. John got my truck all squared away and got my sound system working. Very good work.
