Great place to get a new radio in your car, we went there back in 2020 to replace our car’s old radio system and to this day we still love it, They even have CarPlay & Android Auto systems.
Im pretty sure they blew the subwoofer i took to them to install
Called on a Monday about a specific system. They confirmed that their other brand “viper” was what system to use and that they had the system in stock. Made an appointment the following Saturday and when I arrived I was told that “viper” didn’t make a systemFor my vehicle and the system I needed was actually the one I originally requested. For the correct system I needed it was twice the price they quoted me and they would have to order it and I’d have to come back again in a week. Had they known what they were doing and ordered the correct system they would have had it when I arrived. They have no clue what they’re doing. If they can’t get the part right how do you trust them to install it correctly!!!
Would feel comfortable if there were more women working there. I had someone help me check out some demo stereos then he just walked back to the desk to play with his phone. His demeanor was less than courteous and appeared like he didn’t want to help or do his job. I had to wave down another representative and he was more helpful.I would recommend ladies to go with a guy friend. Maybe they’ll be taken more seriously and reduce the skeevy feeling an all-male environment brings.
I came by today to check on getting speakers for my car or to see if I needed it done but when I arrived they came out adjusted my speaker and my sound on my new stereo that I bought from them a year ago and it sounds crisp and clean. Saved me tons of money just with a few adjustments. Thank you guys you are always giving the best customer service!
Ali and the rest of the guys are super cool and very Knowledgeable. Ali went the extra mile to make sure my Jeep got back on the road. The prices are very reasonable
This place is amazing. Best prices in town especially if you’re on a budget. I came in looking for a stereo for my lil whoopty. Jazzy ended up helping me out and he was VERY knowledgeable and got me exactly what I needed. He hooked me up and price matched an item I found online. His energy was on point. They care about veterans and military which made me extremely happy. I left completely satisfied and would 10/10 recommend this place to a friend. Very appreciative for the great service.
I feel we were not over sold, we got what we wanted, learned some things and we love what we got!
Good service good place to shop
Best Stereo Shop Ever! They helped me the very day I brought my car in. They installed the stereo perfectly and even included an extra charging port for free! The customer service here is unreal! I even called 3 years later and asked for a receipt for the stereo (for insurance purposes) and the individual pulled my receipt up, texted it to me, all within 2 minutes! Unreal! I highly recommend this place and I will definitely come here again when I need an upgrade! AAAAA++++++++
Ali was spot on with what I was looking for. Very happy with his recommendation and service.
I just got my second system put in with the guys at stereo depot. Jazzy helped me out and I get everything set up and scheduled quickly, efficiently and professionally. Once installed they walked me through the new equipment and how to use it and when I had questions after using it for a day, they took time to have me bring it by and address everything I needed. I’ll be using these guys for all my vehicles and refer them out.
This place is awesome!!! Ali helped me and was great!!! He was professional and very very helpful
Very unsatisfied with my installation and the time wasted by making me wait another HR and when they told me my car would be ready by 6, the bass speaker in the back is not connected now I have to go back and deal with them 🤦 very horrible service, run away, the people at the front desk dont care about you once you pay
I wouldnt take anything to these guys not only did they overcharge for the job but they cracked my dash in half and when I went to bring it to his attention he pointed to some small print on the rec saying that they arent responsible for cracking dashes on cars over 10yrs old this is after they sold me a head unit so out of date you cant even use the mirror function because the app isnt compatible with the newest Android update.i checked with other stereo installers and asked if cracking your dash was normal with the type of install they did and everyone of them said there was no reason they should have cracked my dash.i even went to there other store and got a written quote for the same job and was quoted 100 less and after bringing it to his attention was told that he(the owner)wouldnt do anything so I told him I would have to take him to court and his reply was that I was just trying to make him mad and that I was all talk and wouldnt do anything!boy is he in for a big surprise.
Great place! I had an issue with my alarm system. Car wouldn’t start. They asked me to bring it in and they would take care of it. They fixed the issue right on the spot no questions asked.
Everybody here was very pleasant and helpful. I was able to get my car in on the same day for a Head unit installation, backup camera, and steering wheel control integration. Unfortunately, when I brought my car in at 4pm, they said that the installation would take about 1-1.5 hours. They close at 6:30, and its now 7pm, and my car still isnt done. I probably wouldnt have waited, if it was going to take this long. Hopefully the quality can surpass my expectations.
Got a stereo, amp and subwoofer installed by the guys at stereo depot and I am definitely not impressed. The lack of professionalism and clean work is mind boggling. It looks like they just threw it in with no care. I would not recommend having anything installed by these guys.
Ali was very accommodating, extremely knowledgeable and courteous.
Went in and Jazzy was straight forward. He knew exactly what I needed to do to upgrade my 2005 complicated Tundra stereo. I bought steering adapter, stereo, module, stereo mount kit, trigger interface, for 250 out the door.
Had a rocky start at First but I guess I didnt communicate my needs effectively. Talked with management Ave they really took care of me. My truck sounds amazing with Rockford throughout. Great job guys keep up the good work. I highly recommend.
Awesome service great detail better prices here than you can get at most places
Ali was a rock star helping me with an issue. The staff is very friendly and helpful. My daughter and her boyfriend are very happy with the stereos, Amps, speakers, back up camera they got. Thank you again
Service seems good, till you pay. Then comes the excuses and they give you the runaround. Their words were professional installation, but my car was torn up. Tore holes for speakers, broke panels, then cover up the 8 in hole with a 12 in grill that looks ridiculous. Ordered a dash panel almost worth 200 and doesnt even fit properly. Id say you can do the math, but Im too embarrassed to say how mucht total i paid.
They try to wax u here...
Ive had many cars tinted but I heard these guys were good from a friend. So I came here to tint my windows. They originally were charging me $290 which to me is pretty high. I said if they are really good itll be worth it. I arrived then they charged me $340. Very high priced tint. I had to work at 6pm so I didnt really have time to find someone else to tint my windows. It was 12pm. They said my car would be ready by 5pm. I called at 4:45 and was told it would be ready in an hour or two. I payed top dollar because they said it be ready way before 6pm. As I look at the windows now I see so many air bubbles. They put tint on my old tint that they didnt fully remove. The new tint isnt even perfectly aligned. By far worst tint I ever received. Do yourself a favor save your money and go somewhere else. If you are not middle eastern they will try to over charge you just a heads up. All my middle eastern friends are shocked that I was charged so much. One worker even stated I should have been charged $500 for my tint. Just ridiculous.
Ollie and David were both very helpful In helping me pick out the best sound system, the tinting they had done looks AMAZING and torro did an awesome job installing my sound system ! I am beyond happy with the outcome all around ! 10/10 recommend !
They came out to help when my car was having issues 5 stars for sure.
I pop in here every now and then for things I need for personal installs. Been coming here since they first opened years ago and their shop keeps getting better and better everytime I go. Went in tonight for some equipment for a system install on my 2020 Silverado. Guys in there are always super helpful and knowledgeable. Not to mention their prices are ALMOST always better than what youd find online. Rad.
These guys definitely know what theyre doing. Always feels like family. 💯
What a wonderful shop and staff here at stereo depot . Great staff and customer service i came today to look for a new alpine headunit for my car and wanted to check out some great deals for memorial weekend . Ali is a true professional and knowledgeable about the latest technology and safety. He outline great options and i got easy financing payment plan no credit check with snap . Approved same day and got the work done same day service . Great selections i went with pioneer avh-2550nex and echo master backup camera . Worth the wait . Plus their showroom is very welcoming, clean, and presentable . Highly recommend these guys . Thank you Ali and all the guys ! They are open 7 days a week !
Excellent service! Professional install. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Started install on time and completed as promised. Called me with an update and again when finished Highly recommended. 👍
Stereo Depot is the best. I brought in two that needed some updating and Carlos was on the ball and got the job done quickly and had a price better than I could ever have imagined. The shop is clean and professional and it appears everybody knows what they’re doing. Could have not been a better experience. Thanks again, Ken
This is a great place to do business, the staff is great and they go that extra mile if need be. I had a stereo put into my old Cadillac, then they told me they could also fix the Windows so that they would go up and down. I returned and they put in a new regulator with motorGood Job Ali and David, keep up the good work
Great service great work team...
Everyone at this place was awesome!!! Great prices!!! I love my tint!! They were all personable.. The install was incredibly fast!! Adrian was the best though!! He really went the extra mile for me. Thank you all guys!!
Product and installation was great. How ever there knowledge of the financing was not very good. I was told I would be paying one price but once I talked with the finance company it was more. The tint and radio was awesome and clean
I guess they gave me what I paid for nothing extra thats for sure
This spot is amazing I have been coming here for about 2 years and been dealing with adrian. He makes everything so convenient I purchased rims, tires on 2 different cars and car audio system including hide . Adrian you are amazing . I recommend going to Adrian for all car audio needs he is very knowledgeable. He always makes everything right the first time without me having to come back . I refer this place to all my friends and family .
Ive been here a few times for my car audio needs and these guys never disappoint. Carlos and Ali are extremely knowledgeable and do their best to offer you a good deal. I highly recommend this place!
This is by far one of the best car audio shops I have ever gone to, they have such a wide variety of high-quality items and such knowledgeable staff that they make every other shop look like a rundown swap meet. The prices are amazing they are willing to work with you and are not like a big crazy company who is stern with their prices. They are like a family and joke around and nothing feels too serious but when you show concern they step in and make sure that you are comfortable with what you are doing. I am by far enjoying coming here and will always come here for all my car audio and tint needs. They give you honest opinions from experience and that’s what I enjoy, the best part is they never even recommend the most expensive items they always recommend the best bang for the buck
Amazing customer service! They get it done within a few hours and you’re ready to go! After finished product they should me all the different types of ways to use it. If you want the best quality stuff with the best price go to Stereo Depot!
Best installation guys in the business!!! They definitely have their stuff together. Ali & Cal have hooked me up every time!! This is my second time coming to this shop after getting ripped off by another store in the College area. Every time they have given me great deals, they have done great professional installation and I have had no worries about the end result. They have a wide range of different products and solutions for you to get the best out of your vehicle. They even offer easy financing to help you make the most of your investment. Highly recommend this business!!!
Im a new costumer.. got my wifes headlights done there, and they were on point with what she wanted. Had an issue with the product but not the staff they resolved everything.
These guys rock. Great store, competitive prices, friendly staff. The nicest stereo shop I’ve seen in the San Diego area.
Excellent service and plenty of options here! These folks will bend over backwards to make sure you are satisfied! I WILL be returning to this business! Thank you!
My friend and I dropped off his 11’ Challenger and my 17’ Tacoma for new sound systems and we are 100% satisfied. All work was done in the time frames they gave us, even with their busy schedule. The Challenger’s new Pioneer NEX radio is awesome and the 2 subs sound amazing.Also, super impressed with the quality and install of the JL Audio Stealthbox they recommended that is now in my Tacoma. Price was overall good. 5 stars, highly recommend.
Great group of knowledgeable guys. Very helpful and fair prices
Very knowledgeable and reasonable with pricing. Great tinting service as well.
Needed a new sub quick for our trip to Vegas! Adam hooked us up with everything we needed, even went out of his way to get it all installed the same day! Thanks Stereo Depot! Youve earned 5 stars.
John and everyone here are friendly and very helpful. My back up camera had stopped working. I purchased a new license plate camera and they installed it. Work was done quickly and price was very reasonable.
Eddy and John were great. They greeted me with the highest level of service and hooked me up with a nice radio+installation cheaper than most places in San Diego. Everyone that worked there definitely set a friendly atmosphere and they take the time understand what it is your looking for.
There were just a few minor issues and the manager was able to rectify and make things right.
Guys took good care of me. Two cars. Two android auto radios and some window tint. Great job
Stopped by to get a small part fixed on my auxiliary port. Carlos showed me how I could repair it my self. Decided that a touch screen would be a nice addition. Carlos got my truck in and out ASAP as my schedule was slammed. Hooked me up with a backup camera upgrade because he wanted a cleaner install. Loving the new gear and could not ask for a better experience.
I absolutely loved this place and the people there. The people are friendly and willing to help always. Ali and Brutus were on top of my case the whole time I was deciding on what to get and they made sure to give me exactly what I wanted, it was a little on the pricey side but it was very high quality. Anytime I found anything wrong with my system I brought my SUV back in and they fixed it within a matter of an hour at most (due to how many other customers they were taking care of at the moment). But overall I definitely recommend these guys. They are not hummad.👌👍
This place is great and the service is excellent. All the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I came in to get a back up camera and in a matter minutes I was helped by John and on my way. I highly recommend this place.
After reading all the reviews for this car audio shop I immediately headed over to have a radio installed into my Ford F-150, shop owners were very friendly and nice and knowledgeable about stereos, speakers and installs. Price was reasonable and took them about an hour or so to install my new radio and speakers, highly recommend going to this shop again to have them install a new radio in my other cars. Best car audio shop south county San diego.
Had two vehicles tinted one dark tinted one a lighter shade, both of them had to be redone one had to be redone twice. I dont have time for this.yes they fixed the problem but it should have been done right the first time. What a waste of my time.
These guys are awesome, I was having an issue with me Bluetooth stereo and was willing to replace it if my stereo was messed up. It took them 10 min to analyze and rectify. No charge just a merry Christmas from them. Thank you!!!!
Great customer service. Most of all INSTALLATION is guaranteed done right.. Ask for Carlos he will give you the best price and will work with any situation or budget you got..Headache-free OEM camera retained on Aftermarket Radio.
Great service and they didnt try to pressure me into anything. I am very happy with their service!
Allen helped me out very much! i highly recommend you coming here! you won’t regret it!
Hi My name is Marilyn i was refer to Store Depot to john. He was a great and awsome customer services, he answered all my questions. And gave me an excellent price
Stereo Depot gave me an awesome deal on a Viper alarm system. The staff is very knowledgeable and even though they were pretty busy when I went in, it was only a couple minutes before I had someone helping me out. I highly recommend Stereo Depot and they definitely have my future business
Only place in East County to go and get a stereo system or alarm. They have worked on all my cars and I am always happy with the work! Go talk to my boy Carlos at the El Cajon location and he will hook you up.
I have had Stereo Depot do work in 3 of my vehicles. They always have the best prices. Great customer service.
Friendly, quick and fair. Thats all Im really looking for in local spot. I purchased new car speakers and a stereo on this trip.
Treated very well. Great price. Excellent service. They were exceptional in customer service
John is the bomb, thank you so much for your customer service, you guys rock took good care of me and got my car slapping i really love it. Go see John he will take care of you. I definitely recommend Stereo Depot
Today, I had the stereo replaced on my 2003 Honda Accord. John hooked me up with a huge discount. He helped me choose a stereo that fit budget, yet had all the features I wanted. What I loved most is that theyre very accommodating of my scedule and work quickly.The first time I was here, I got the same excellent service from Adnan, who helped me choose a radio and phone mount for my old car. Because of their excellent service and friendliness, I highly recommend Stereo Depot.
I purchased a new Pioneer car stereo with Bluetooth capabilities. The unit was installed and works well. There were a couple of complications however. The installer removed my car lighter and replaced it with a place to plug in my USB & HDMI cords. Makes sense except I need my lighter to plug in my trickle charger because my car drains the battery if it sits idle for an extended period of time. I drove back to the location to tell them and the manager told me he would order another lighter receptacle and we could install it in a different location. This was agreeable to me. After two weeks I never heard back from so I called; the gentleman told me he could not help me but that the manager was out of town and would be returning the following day and he would get back to me. That never happened. I have since purchased my own part and installed it myself. There were some other minor wrinkles that I also had to clean up on my own. Very disappointed in the lack of follow-up.
These guys offer a pretty decent selection of car audio gear from several different brands, offer free installation for a new deck (though they do charge for amps and other ancillary components), and offer very decent prices and price matching. Quick installation, too. Ive had Stereo Depot do all of the work on both mine and my wifes trucks, and they even do my HID lights as well. They dont typically have the latest gear available, but thats made up for my their low cost and speedy service, even in-house financing
Nice and clean friendly staff costly but they finance with $0down
Always a happy customer when I want to upgrade my vehicles from sound to rims to tint they always preform a great service ! Great on prices and customer service!Thank you Jon for being welcoming and helping me with the right products, always the guy I would recommend!
Great service very happy with the install Omar installed amp and sub that I provided it was last-minute appointment late in the afternoon leaving town the next morning amp was no good out of the box they not only provided a loaner amp for me but stayed late to get it all done Top Notch service Top Notch installation, very happy, highly recommended.
Very professional! Instantly greeted me. Broke down all the information for me. Great prices on my 12in. High recommend!
I had a accident with my truck and when it was returned for some odd reason the stereo would not play any sound. I bought a awesome audio system at audio depot a few Christmases ago and I took it to stereo Depot to have him diagnose the problem. Immediately found a wire which Ive been disconnected and proceeded to fix it. When I asked him how much I owed him he responded that it was free. Where else would you find this kind of service? No where... They treat people right here and i can recommend this establishment to anyone needing audio/stereo work.
Nothing less than AWSOME, we have had three vehicles upgraded with new stereo systems. Products, service, schedule were all exceeding expectations. I thnk our boat will be next!!
I went in for a odd job. Had my husband put a LARGE sticker on my back window. Which was left not straight & full of bubbles. They took it off and put my replacement on. Plus took off old stickers that I figured were stuck for life. Juan has amazing customer service. Going back to get a new stereo.
Ali at rhe El Cajon location to care of us. Installing took 3 hours but everything looked clean and is working great. They did have a mixed up on the radio they installed but took care of the swap the next day first thing.
Ali and his Staff have always done a great job for whatever my budget is. They have done 4 of our cars from everything to just adding a few speakers. Adding a custom system to my FJ that makes my buddies envy. I understand they are doing Jeep and Razor upgrades so I will have to try them for those soon. 5 stars always. When they do make a mistake they have always made it right.
I arrived at 11:30am and truck wasnt ready until 6:55pm. I took it in for a new alarm system and was told it would only be about 3 hours. I paid a good price but the timing was terrible. It really took them about 9 hours to get the job done. Im only giving them 1 star for the price I paid but other than that I wont go back again.
I came in late on a Friday and John hooked me up! I had an old Sirius/XM unit with no antenna nor power cord. Well, John and his team got it all installed quickly right then and there for a very reasonable price. I’m will be a continued customer in the future!
Very rude sto ...after getting windows tent door falling apart dashboard falling apart..the one one elcajon Blvd is better than el cajon city stereo depot.
If i could put 0 stars i would! my boyfriend bought a new stero and got it installed when we were driving wires came out of his dash so he put them back and saw there was a cut wire that shouldnt have been cut so he saudered it back and while doing that he saw they didnt use the new cables the stero came with they used the sketchy original wire. he went a few months later to get power locks and driving home i needed to get out and come to find out he has to turn his truck off to unlock the door. and both times they left there trash all over his truck. we refered someone which was a mistake she went and got a new stero, new back up camera, and power locks and she is having so many issues. her passenger side power lock doesnt work and theres a lot more than just that issues i wish i didnt refer her to this place. they need to hire people that know what there doing!
Really good guys to work with. Youll like them
Amazing attitude from Carlos have a great price for the installation, let me add super quick and very much clean installation no wires hanging no rattles in the speakers or the subwoofer I am very happy the way it turned out
Ali, Cal, and John Proctor are the best in providing car stereos, installation, and accessories. Ali provided a great package to fit my budget with quality sound. Cal made it a pleasurable experience by explaining the system that I purchased. John assisted in all aspects with all three providing great customer service. Ayed completed the best tinting job at an affordable price. Very grateful for this local shop that provides quality service garunteed.
WARNING: Inexperienced and rude staff. Quoted me for 3 hours... Ended up taking 8+ hours for a basic speaker swap because they worked on their own cars instead. They talked about using drugs while I was standing right next to them.
Was good first time then was not that good Attitude problem I was going to buy speakers but attitude chance my mind will not shop there any more when Somewhere else to buy speakers
Renovated interior with every possible upgrade for your vehicles clean and professional.
This place is honest and very helpful also very good pricing on products Cal and other employees at this store are very awesome really recommended also have a nice day
Carlos took great care of us and the price was very fair. I would recommend this place to anyone.
