Audionutz review: I called for a quote the previous day to get a rough estimate for an audio system purchase & install. I was told no quotes over the phone and that I had to come in due to too many variables. The next day, I come in, wait for a couple minutes for the gentleman to say hello (I'm the only one there) and request an audio quote. He leaves and grabs another gentleman to help me (who's much friendlier). I tell him I'm only looking to have my 4 speakers replaced and maybe a sub &/or amp install. The given budget was about $1,500 (reasonable imo). I was told they only install premium audio systems such as JL and it would be a minimum of $3,000. I was also told you cannot bring your own equipment to have them install for you. I was then told to take my business away and out to Sac. The biggest bother was the fact that this could have easily been communicated over the phone. Not once did they look at my car, just researched its specs on the computer and asked for my budget. If you don't have a minimum of 3k to spend, don't bother with this place. It was a waste of gas and time. read more

I went in looking to have my speakers replaced with cleaner, more efficient ones. I'm a professional musician and understand acoustics. The single biggest factor in CLEAN sound are the speakers, but they wanted to replace everything or nothing. I don't need volume and don't want the buttons on my car to not work. Yes, I understand more power would improve it, but I know exactly what I'm asking for. read more

The massive windshield on my Class A Motorhome allowed the early morning and/or afternoon sun to completely blind me. Expensive pull down shields always seemed to be just to the left or right of the sun angle. The owner, Pinder (so sorry if I misspelled your name, but I meant to post this in March when the work was done), understood my dilemma immediately, and had a solution. A medium tint 3M product across the top of the windshield. Although his installer was booked solid, Pinder was able to get me an appointment before I left town. The installer was very personable (and I am so remiss in forgetting his name). He explained that he had 20 years of experience, which helped ease my anxiety. His devoted and attentive poodle mix companion also seemed to say, "Don't worry, my dad's got this!" It turned out perfect. Has made the last month of travel so much better, and every day I say out loud, "Why didn't I do this year's ago!!!" read more

Audionutz - Windshield! - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Woodland, California

See all

These guys are great! Helped me get on the road with my tunes. Reasonable prices and excellent service. What else could you ask for?

Came here years ago as it had high reviews and I fully agree. I have been here for 2 stereos and window tint and the service is always great. They do great work and stand behind it. And if you wait while your work is being done they have a wonderful little poodle to keep you company. I think his name is Teddy. read more

Highly recommend - they did an awesome job! I had my two front windows redone, and they look really good. Originally, the dealership took my car to Rocky Mountain in Sac. So, I was a little concerned that maybe it would be noticeable if the film was different but for the price, I went with it and I wasn't disappointed. The pricing is good, and lower than many of the places in Sac or Davis. A warranty wasn't mentioned and frankly, I've never had to use one but it would be cool if one was offered read more

Audionutz - 15% APX on two front windows - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Woodland, California

I just picked up a used car from the dealer and found that it had a custom-installed radar detector that didn't seem to be working. I looked up certified installers of this model and Audionutz was closest to me. I called to make an appointment and told them what my problem was. They told me to try turning it on (I didn't realize it would need that since it is hard wired). So, I went and dug around and found a power button under the panel--it worked! Thanks for saving me a trip and the advice so I can use it! I'll definitely have them work on my car in the future. read more

Guy up front cried because I didn't let his dog sniff all over me. I nudged the dog away from me and he starts crying that i kicked his dog! Drama queen made me walk around the building to collect my car which was fine but service sucked. Close to Sacramento so really don't have to use a shitty shop because it's in my town. Daughter was just trying to keep our money local but we lost on this one. read more

Highly Recommend! We are so impressed with Audionutz that we had to tell the world! They are professional, intelligent, compassionate, great educators and the experience of working with them reminds me of the type of customer service and care that we usually only hear about from "the good old days"! They did an amazing job installing our boat stereo and amplifier and we are grateful to have this "home town shop" to rely on. read more

Audionutz - Our Boat - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Woodland, California

Great place for audio or window tinting. I have brought all of my cars here and I have not had a problem.

I live just outside of Woodland and have passed Audionutz for years. I had checked out their web site and assumed that they dealt with higher-end car audio and specialized in those powerful amplified systems with huge subwoofers. In the past I had always just gone to Best Buy and had their Geek Squad install my car audio since I didn't require all of that "high end" stuff but the Woodland Best Buy's car audio section is abysmal. I wanted to upgrade the basic stock radio in my Nissan pickup truck and certainly didn't need "high end" equipment. I just wanted a reasonably decent sound system with Bluetooth so I could use my iPhone with it and I wanted XM/Sirius. So, on a whim, I went into Audionutz and checked it out. I'm really glad that I did! I talked to one of the guys there and explained that I needed some lower-end audio equipment and asked if they had any. He said that they could sell and install a good system for a reasonable price. We then talked audio. He was very knowledgeable and showed me some options after I told him what kind of sound system I wanted. I felt no pressure. He simply described the equipment and what he thought would work best for me within my budget. I chose the system that I wanted with one addition that he suggested: and amplifier. I was leery of the idea of getting an amplifier at first because it seemed to be overkill for what I thought I needed. He explained why he though it was a good idea but didn't pressure me. I set up an appointment to get the system installed. The installation was perfect. The system looks great. There was no sign that the truck didn't come with it. The result is a sound system that is so good that I find excuses to go for a drive just to listen to it. The sound quality is impressive. I am extremely pleased with it, and I am very thankful that I got good advice and took it. Customer Service I explained above how knowledgeable and low key the sale and installation went. I didn't get the ersatz happy customer service that you often get these days. I got low-key, help from somebody who was quite knowledgeable and seemed to genuinely want to get me the system I wanted. About a month after installation, I called because I was getting an error from the satellite radio about the antenna. They took my info and told me to bring it in so they could look at it. I did and they fixed it free of charge. No hassles and no fuss: just good customer service supporting the product and their installation. This week, I got a CD stuck by my own error (stupidity?). I called and asked if they could remove it. They told me to drop by so that they could look at it. I did and Jerome told me that he would need to remove it from my dash. Of course, I told him I would pay him for it since it was my error. We scheduled an appointment for the next day. I showed up and Jerome recovered the CD. I asked how much and I was told "nothing." This is unbelievably good customer service that is very rare these days. They have a customer for life now. I highly recommend giving this shop a call or just drop in. Their hours are on their web site. read more

I got two cars tinted here. It was easy to make an appointment and the team did a great job. We dropped the car off in the morning and they called us when it was ready. read more

Best customer service! I needed to upgrade my stereo in my 2001 Toyota 4Runner (CD skips & volume knob cuts out) and I first chose simple model that had everything I needed. Unfortunately selecting the radio presets 11-18 was a cumbersome 3 button process. I hated it. So Pender (the owner) made me fair deal to upgrade the stereo that he just installed and now I am a very happy customer. I am so pleased that I chose to support a small local shop and not a big company like BestBuy. read more

Exceptional customer service is what I always look for before going forward with service. Audionutz gets 5 stars for their customer service. I went in on a Wednesday afternoon for a quote on window tint. The owner assisted me and was very helpful with explaining low end to high end ceramic tinting. He was very thorough, patient and didn't make me feel like my questions were stupid like another business in Davis did. I took my car in on a very busy Saturday. Even though they close at 5:30, they stayed over time to get my car finished and called me several times to apologize for the delay. I have also had them install a stereo in my Jeep last year and again, same high quality of service and professionalism. I highly recommend Audionutz for both stereo installation and window tint. My car looks great. They are very qualified, courteous and helpful. Thank You Audionutz!! read more

Had this place tint my windows on my Toyota Corolla this past Saturday they did a great job.I went with the more expensive tint as it is suppose to cut down on the sun rays beating and making the inside very hot during my he summer months.Also that type of tint comes with a lifetime warranty if any issues come up they will fix it for free,warranty is good even if you sell the vehicle.Friendly staff. read more

This business was able to install a simple 2-inch car CD stereo in my car on the same day I called to inquire! The guy game me a discount, too, since it was last year's model. The install fee was $20 less than what Best Buy was going to charge me. The guy I worked with was very knowledgeable and patient as I picked out the stereo I wanted. I got a call only 45 minutes after I left that it was installed and ready to go! He assured me that if I had any concerns or questions to come back in. When I tested the system, I realized that I had left a CD in my old stereo (doh!), and couldn't figure out how to remove it. I went back in and the guy easily hooked it up to power and removed the CD from my old stereo. My hero! My husband also wanted a stereo installed in his car, but the item wasn't in stock. He easily booked an appointment on a later date. I can tell that this shop is a specialty shop, and therefore they don't always have a particular item in stock that you might want. So, just make sure you call ahead to get your stereo ordered before you plan to get it installed. The knowledgeable service I received here would have been well worth the wait. read more

They are awesome did excellent work they have what a lot of places don't and that's integrity they keep their word thank you guys for that... read more

Thank you so much for figuring out the accessory wiring nightmare in my beloved Lincoln. The dealership and factory warranty people have been giving us the runaround for over a year and cost us hundreds of dollars down the drain. YOU FIXED THE PROBLEM THE VERY FIRST TIME and it was very reasonable. I am coming back to have you install a backup system for my older car. I never realized how much I would appreciate it until I had one on the new car. read more

Cleanest tint job I've ever had. Definitely coming back to have my stereo installed here. The owner is very genuine and knowledgeable. Very competitive and honest prices for equipment and installs. read more

Audionutz - After tint - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Woodland, California

I went to this establishment last week on Tuesday to inquire a new stereo. The employee seem he didn't want my business; when I asked if had any time he said he is booked to install a stereo for me. When I asked if he had any stereos available he said he had no date they on back order. I asked if he can me one on hold and he replied that he has no time. F___ this place I'm a. Woodland residents, I'll go spend my money to Sacramento; they have plenty of openings their. I recommend no one to this place. read more

Update:7/14/2016 Customized sub enclosure finished and placed in vehicle. The Audionutz team have done a fantastic job. Enclosure was cut to allow for fitment as well as carpeted. The sub is still breaking in so taking it easy but can already tell the difference compared to the original set-up (JL CP208LG). Previously I could tell the subs were located in the back and is definitely not what you want. In addition, the subs were not able to hit the lower frequencies but is of course a limitation of the subs. With the current sealed set-up I cannot localize the sub location and provides an enveloping feeling instead. Can't wait for the sub to mature. 6/23/2016 Recently stopped by to see if the team could do a project and was greeted immediately by Nick. Very professional, informative, and understanding of my needs. Asked if he could maybe take measurements the same day then checked with the owner if it was possible and got a yes. He then drove the vehicle to the back to be checked out by Pinder (owner) and was able to provide guidance on the build. Felt assured this is easily in the right hands and no qualms putting a down payment. Will update once all is finished. Vehicle info: 2006 Miata with 10"(SD3-10 Sundown) Sub woofer down firing under the soft top behind seats. read more

I purchased my car alarm almost 8 yrs ago from them, also recently got tinted windows too. The owner is always polite and professional. I have also purchased replacement alarm keys and again service has been great. Even though they are usually busy, they are always polite and the work is excellent. I would recommend them anytime. :) read more

My dad took one of his cars here years ago and they did an AWESOME job. So of course when I bought my new car and needed my windows tinted, I knew this is where I wanted to go. They got me in quick, gave me a great price and the results were awesome. This will always be my first choice shop if I ever need tinting done. Keep up the great work!!! read more

Pender will set you up with whatever your car needs at a great price. I wouldn't go anywhere else because he and his staff truly care about the customer. read more

One star for poor customer experience before the staff even completed any work. I made an appointment to bring my vehicle in for a stereo install after making an initial DYI attempt. After several hours of not hearing back, I called and was told that I would have to make another appt two-weeks out and that it would cost me ~$360 for the install. I decided to take the $60 loss on the initial diagnosis fee and get a second opinion. Walked into another shop with no appt where the staff completed the install within three hours, charged on $150 including parts, and made every effort to make me comfortable while I waited. Hard to recommend any establishment that doesn't respect the customer's time and $, and loses customer trust in the process. read more

I had my tint, stereo and speakers installed through them. I had a few systems that were defective from manufactorer unfortunately. They worked with me, and had no problem switching them out and warranting them. The tint came out nicely. I would never go back there again to have work done since my car got totaled out because the company sub'd the work out to Auto Glass Solution ( the shop next door) to remove my back window to get the old tint off. However, when the glass company reinstalled the window it was not done right and flooded my car with the first rain of the year, which lead to totaling out my car due to mold and water damage. I brought this up to the owner of Audionutz and he offered nothing for compensations, accept to simply say"well at least you get a new car out of it". I never wanted a new car i liked the car i had that is why i invested the money into it in the first place. read more

Great guys. Of course they're not Best Buy dude!! They are professional, competent, and prices are competitive. I always like supporting the little guys over big box stores, and these guys are great. read more

This local business gave me POOR service! First red flag, Beatnuts Car Audio appears they do not keep many of their car stereos in stock. I had to order the car stereo I wanted to purchase then having to wait a week for the stereo to arrive. 2nd red flag: After the stereo arrived I was then told they could not get me in for another week to get the stereo installed. The day I planned to get the stereo installed I changed my mind with the stereo I picked so I decided to select a different stereo. To my surprise every stereo I inquired about Beatnuts did not have in stock appearing he wanted to stick me with that one he ordered for me or Beatnuts simply does not carry any stereos at their location and order everything upon demand. Every stereo I asked for the employee said they were out of stock. After he told me he was out of stock with my 4th pick I asked if I can go to another electronic store to purchase a stereo still wanting to give them my business by having them do the installation. I returned within an hour later with a car stereo. That same employee who was helping me tells me now tells me "We do not have time to install the stereo now." With that said, I became dishearten because I took off work and it was obvious he no long wanted my business since I did not purchase a stereo from him. I took my car and my business back to Best Buy. Best Buy had a lot of car stereos in stock and their prices were even better than Beatnuts. Best Buy took me in right away to do the installation. Shocking to hear Beatnuts no longer had time to do the work on my car because it only took Best Buy 45 minutes. I will continue to give Woodland's small businesses my business except for Beatnuts Car Audio! read more
