I have been going here for years. Robert has repaired my Cdjs over the past 5 years, from cue buttons acting up, to wear and tear, he always gets things done quickly and prompt. He's a cool guy and he is the reason I come back to this location over and over again. They have awesome dj equipment as well that you can buy. This is a really friendly store. read more

Fantastic service. Robert was fast and effective. Highly recommended! Anyone who needs any speaker repair work done should go here. Look forward to returning in the future. read more

I'm giving this five stars primarily for Robert, the repair tech, who is the best repair tech in LA County. I've been bringing my stereo receiver, turntable and other audio gear for repair and he consistently gives me good prices and fast turnaround. The rest of the store has cool looking stuff too read more

We love!!! My boyfriend owns his own Sound company and wouldn't come anywhere else than this place for repairs or anything else! We have found loyalty, great customer care and service and excellent work! HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone and everyone. read more

Really cool spot. Brendan helped me figure out which new equipment I wanted to buy and I was impressed by the level of knowledge and understanding for the equipment! Will definately be back! read more

I've used Astro A/V two years in a row for rental equipment for our company Christmas party. Last year, they definitely earned a 5-star review. This year, I have to give them a 2.5 rating. I ordered a screen and projector and had some assistance from the owner putting the equipment in my car. Right before, he announced to his staff that they needed to hurry and finish up what they're doing so they can start their staff meeting (on a Friday at high noon). In a haste, the owner just started shoving the large, long projector screen into my trunk and through the hole that lead to my front seat center console. While he was jamming it through, he scratched my baby's seat and made a slight tear into my leather console. I asked him to WAIT and STOP shoving it through but he either didn't listen or hear me. Clearly, he was in a rush to get his meeting started and just wanted me out of there. Horrible. Not saying I'm not going to go back to Astro or rent equipment from them again, but I'm definitely not going to let the owner assist next time around. The rest of the staff are super friendly and helpful. read more

Brought my turntables in for service. Robert did a great job, nice guy too. Quick turn around. Fair pricing.

This is the best place hands down for Djs!! I've started here as an aspiring DJ & let me tell you, from Craig, to Anthony, Cyph, Sol, and the list goes on, they have provided me with the tools and equipment to pursue my DJin career.. in return I have DJ any events they allow me to showcase my skills.. this is truly my second home!! Anyone who's throwing any event or need to have any Dj equipment this is the place!! They will welcome you with open arms & also their knowledge of any equipment is truly astonishing!! Don't sleep on Astro all the greats go there!! If I could give 100 stars it still would not be enough to show my appreciation for Astro!! Big ups to Astro Avl crew!! read more

Placed a phone order pretty blindly for some DJ equipment as a surprise for my husband for Christmas, and received quick and attentive service and knowledge of the product being sold from Cypher. I paid extra for two day shipping, and it arrived in one day! Super happy! I'm sure my husband will be too! :) read more

Been coming to this spot for years. Staff is and has been on point since day one. A definite must for deejays of all skill levels. Renting equipment is easy and they have a wide array of accessories for sale as well. Go check em out. read more

Got my Technics SL1200MK2 fixed by Robert, he's a wizard. Super happy with their service in general. Very chill and knowledgeable staff! I'll be back. read more

Today I took my first step into becoming a professional DJ. After searching for places to buy my first controller I chose Astro Audio because of the great reviews they have. As soon as I walked in I fell in love with the place. Cypher, the sales manager, helped me out with my purchase and gave me so much info on equipment, rentals and DJ lessons. He even gave me a tour of the place which was really cool! I am definitely considering taking DJing lessons from them. If your looking for a place to purchase your first controller or DJ equipment I recommend this place!! read more

As a non profit, our organization reached out to Astro to purchase some items for our organization and the personal and very mind service was absolutely amazing. It is rare today to find this level of thoughtful customer service. We will return with hopefully many more purchases. read more

A great place to go for DJ equipment purchases and rentals. They have a pretty darn large selection of equipment. They have mixers, turntables, CDJs, midi controllers, lights, speakers, cables, headphones, vinyl, etc, etc, etc ,etc... basically anything you need for DJing, but if they don't have it they will order it for you. Over the years I've spent over 1,000$ here and for a good reason (no, I'm not rich, I said over the years, I mean years!). The first purchase I made was a Numark Mixer. They didn't have the exact model I was looking for, but they gave me a damn good deal on another. The second purchase was a Technics M5G (I need that +16 pitch!), again, the price they gave me was the best I could find. The third purchase was a big ol JBL speaker (which my friends have all seen). I walked in not knowing much about speakers, wires for speakers, and what kind of amplifier I'd need. The sales associate was very helpful, he was more than happy to let me hear several speakers, and he never pressured me into buying any one speaker in particular. Speaking of speakers, they have this awesome wall-o-speakers (last time I went) all of which you can hear and compare! And if a wall of speakers doesn't get your attention, the room next door has a wall of lights! Ha! And they'll gladly demo their lights for you and you can just stare at them for the longest time. Final purchase I made was a speaker rental. I told them what I needed, they gave me some choices, and I made my decision. No problem picking up, no problem dropping off. I've been to several places in downtown LA looking for a deal on equipment and this place has made me stop going there. Their prices are great and flexible; so go ahead and haggle! But what makes this place stand above other DJ stores (I'm looking at YOU Guitar Center) is the knowledge of the staff. These guys and gals know what they're talking about. I do have to complain about the parking... it is only street parking! Arg. read more

Been coming here for years one of the only RANE certified places i can take my mixer to get fixed.

Damn. This place is awesome! I tried out their CDJs and even had a private room. There was some rain damage that originally made the room unavailable for just that day and they STILL managed to help me make it happen. Saul in particular was extremely helpful and nice - give that man a raise! I also produce raves in L.A. and even though we already have our own equipment, I am DEFINITELY coming here if we need any more gear at all because they have good rental rates too. read more

These guys are great! I was put in charge of renting DJ & lighting equipment for a big party. I didn't know anything about this type of stuff. a friend recommended Astro and told me it would be worth my drive from West Hollywood. Jonathan at Astro told me they had the exact equipment and would deliver it and set it up so I pulled the trigger. Everything worked perfect and was delivered on time. The room looked great and the sound kicked ass! Highly recommended. read more

Simply amazing, I've been to this location twice. So far, I am very impressed. I would highly recommend to anyone who is in the DJ industry.

Great staff, very helpful and patient. They explain everything thoroughly and make sure you have exactly what you need. Very impressed with the quality of the service. Pasquale is very helpful and knowledgable. read more

My son is taking dj lessons there with Cypher and it's working out really well. Cypher is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and has lots of great advice not only on the mechanics of dj-ing but also on how to run a business. Everyone, from Cyph to the manager to the rental department, seems to take really take their time with our questions about equipment. We've rented lights and cables and would certainly go back to buy or rent other equipment. read more

Great staff, down to earth people that know just about all there is to it when it comes to DJing and lighting. Just copped a used but well maintained 1210 mk2! Definitely coming back for all my Dj needs. Great service and they deal with every single customer professionally read more

Brought my vintage technics turntable for repair based on the glowing reviews here. I was really impressed at the immediate attention and service I got. I know my turntable is in excellent hands and I can't wait to do business here again!! read more

Ive been shopping here for 21 years and it is by far the best shop for dj equipment sales, rentals and repairs.

Glowzonela would like to thank Astro for making us look and sound great. We appreciate the great service, special shoutout to Cypher for his excellent customer service and product knowledge. Thank you guys. read more

I used Astro to rent DJ gear for an event I had. I was really impressed with their professionalism and the friendliness of the staff! I knew I was in good hands. :) I also was impressed with the quality of the gear I rented and the clean set up they provided! I highly recommend them. DJ Dayna read more

We had a power surge that completely destroyed our PA system. I brought it in to Robert in the repair department and he really came through for us. He worked with me and the insurance company and met all my requests and needs. He repaired everything quickly and at a fair price. Also he is a very personable and friendly person..... As is everyone at Astro AVL. Thanks Robert!! read more

I've worked with these guys off and on for many many years and I always forget how great they are. Professional, polite and consistent. I'd trust them for any job. I also tend to run into friends who have the same opinion. If your in need, this is certainly the first place you should look into. Thanks Astro. read more

Love the service, I came in today to pick up a mixer and the process was so quick and easy. These guys really know what they're doing. The price was also on the fair side. I couldn't complain for they were one of the cheapest places i've come across. 2 thumbs up! read more

Very courteous and friendly people. They matched other offer to us.

I bought a pair of M-AUDIO BX8-A studio monitors off Craigslist from a guy for $100 and I knew it wasn't gonna be perfect, but a deal's a deal so I sprung for it. Sure enough, the speakers were blown somehow, but I brought them here and Robert got them back in perfect working order. Service is quick, dependable and friendly. read more

I walked in very confused and not knowing exactly what I needed, but the staff made me feel so welcome, they helped so much, they could have sold me so much more then i really needed,but they were so honest and helpful. I would highly recommend this place, I left feeling very satisfied, I will be back for sure. Thank you to everyone who helped me. read more

Well...again...am here to pick up my machine...and they brought me the wrong machine...Wasn't mine. These guys really need to get it together read more

I referred a friend and client getting married to them so that they could supply a lavalier mic for her wedding ceremony. They arrived with the rental equipment, tested it and left an hour before the ceremony began. Come 20 minutes before ceremony time, the mic was no longer functioning and the tech was gone. I called Astro and they said said they didn't know where their tech was and that he'd be back to pick it up after the ceremony. The officiant could not be heard, and it ruined everything for the guests sitting toward the back. Not sure what the issue was. But, we hired them to provide a service and it didn't happen. The following Monday, I called and asked Astro them to reimburse my client. They refused. The owner (Craig) is an unethical business man. Take your business elsewhere. read more

I took my Technics 1200 MK2 turntable to Robert to be repaid. I was a little hesitant at first as was afraid of getting ripped off. Robert asked me to bring in the turntable so that he can take a look at it. to make a long story short, Robert repaired my tonearm, and replaced my RCA's and and pop up light. If you are looking for a affordable and honest repair shop go see Robert. read more

Super friendly service and a great store to explore. I am not a DJ at all - just needed my 70's turntable looked at. The store is so well stocked with DJ equipment - it was impressive. Initially Lisa IM'd me when I was on the website early in the day, then helped me in store and introduced me to Robert (the technician) who tested and diagnosed the problem. Robert spent a good amount of time with me. The problem was the cartridge (which I suspected) - they showed me some options and set me up with a good one at a sale price - and charged only for the part not the technicians time. My turntable sounds great now - I will definitely go back again. read more

For the past 8 years Astro has handled all my sound, stage, and lighting needs to sheer perfection. Thank you Craig and the team for holding me down and making our comedy and jazz shows shine! I'm happy to say that now we're National!! Thank goodness my East Coast folks are ordering their gear from the best!! read more

Man I don't know where to start. Everyone in that store helped me prepare for my gig at Avalon. Brandon helped me with rekordbox problem I was having, and cypher is the man if you want to learn about djing techniques and transitions. Highly recommend this place. Thanks guys!!! read more

Robert, the repair technician at Astro is not only an expert repair tech but he is a wonderful person! The friendly and excellent service I received at Astro is something you don't often find these days! My Technics SL 1200 turntable is special to me and I thank Astro for treating it with such care. I would recommend Robert to anyone that needs electronics repairs. He is skilled, quick and so kind. Everyone at Astro is great. Highly recommend them! read more
