The shop may very well do quality work, and I can't speak to their installations, but customer experience matters too.

Danny strongly recommended that I go with a light enough film to be still able to see the placard when displayed, obviously for legal reasons. Thanks Danny for the recommendation! Danny initially mentioned that it would take about 4 hrs but they got me out very quickly in just a couple. Lastly, at the completion, he made sure to let me know about little details like to not open my windows for the next 2 days to let the film settle and also that I may notice some streaking/air bubble-like appearances on the films which will ultimately disappear. (Putting my trust in Danny since these were quite noticeable as I left the shop. ) Great pricing with Lifetime warranty, too! Overall, I had a great experience from beginning to end. I would recommend SD Auto Glass & Tint to everyone! Thanks again, Danny and Team!!

He responded within 15 minutes and gave me a clear quote upfront and it was a very good number. Fair pricing and zero hassle. He arrived on time and quickly began the tinting. I went with the Nano-Ceramic film (I believe it was 3M) with 5 (limo tint) in all back windows and 30 in fronts. No bubbles, no "fingers" at the edges, and the cuts are laser-precise. He finished my first car in under two hours. The ceramic tint looks amazing and has already dropped the cabin temp significantly. Flawless application. Manny provided a receipt and a lifetime warranty against bubbling/fading. He also instructed me to not roll down windows for 3-5 days (3 was sufficient, so plan that accordingly), which shows that he cares about the long-term result! Two weeks later, I requested Manny come and do my other two cars and again, Manny was professional, friendly and finished in no time. This time I went with 20 in all fronts. Looks amazing!

I needed a sub in my car and drove by this shop one day. Something about it's appearance made me think this was gonna be the place to go. It's not some big box store with a bunch of teenagers that don't know crap trying to sell you on whatever they have in stock. This is a locally owned small business run by people who know what their doing. I worked at Guitar Center in Pro Audio for several years and I've been producing bass music (Dubstep/Drum and Bass) for 20 years. There are two things I know...sound and sales. But I don't know anything about car stereo's, and when you don't have knowledge on something, you really need to put your faith and trust in someone who does. These guys have speakers stacked to the ceiling and this is what they do, day in, day out. I knew I needed their experience and advice. I met Adam and he walked me around the store showing me all of my options. He up-sold me on an amp and I was happy to upgrade for an extra $30. Buy once, cry once. You listen to music in your car every day, so it's worth spending a little more than expected than less than you should. I didn't have time for the install so I paid for my stuff and came back the next day. When I got there, I started having concerns that a 10 inch wasn't going to do it for me, but I didn't want to pay any more money. Adam found a 12 inch within my budget, loaned me his car so I didn't have to wait around and began the install. When I came back, Adam was excited to show me what he did. He was really proud of his work and told me that if I was happy, he would love a review. Listen up people...when someone in sales asks you for a review, it's because they have pride in what they do and they are confident that provided the best service possible. In this case, that was 100% true. Adam did a bang up job and I knew it as drove off the lot. But here's the catch... Speakers don't sound great right out gate. You need to bump them for a little bit. They are kind of like sneakers and they need to be broken in. Later that night, I had just finished working on a track that was exceptionally bass heavy and I wanted to hear it in the car. So I drove to the gas station, rolled down the windows and started dumping bass through the neighborhood. The speakers had fully warmed up and I finally got to hear them at their full potential. When I pulled up to the gas station and their was a dude emptying the trash bins. I told him to stop what he was doing to peep out the new track and the new sound system. He tripped out and genuinely said,"damn that sounds really dope." It sounded so freaking amazing I literally got out of my ride and start dancing around the car and getting crunk in the gas station parking lot! Pure joy in the form of low frequency audio waves permeated my ear canal and filled my soul with something that had been missing in my life. I love my music, and thanks to Adam, I can listen to it the way its supposed to be heard. Do I trust and recommend Audio One? Absolutely beyond a shadow of a doubt. I'll be going back to get my windows tinted next. Thanks Adam. You are a true G and an honest business man. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your hard work. See you soon. - Havok Mega read more

Car Audio One - The Best in the Business for Over a Decade! I can't say enough good things about Car Audio One on 3rd Avenue and its incredible owner, Adam. I've been a loyal customer for over 10 years, and every experience has been nothing short of outstanding. Most recently, I brought my car in for a front-and-back dashcam installation and a sound system upgrade. As always, Adam and his team absolutely crushed it. The installation was seamless, the quality is impeccable, and the sound system? Pure perfection! It's like driving around in a concert hall. Adam is truly one of a kind. His dedication to his craft and his customers is unmatched. He genuinely listens to what you need, explains every option in detail, and works with you to deliver beyond your expectations. No upselling, no shortcuts--just honest, high-quality work every single time. Being a customer for 10 years speaks volumes, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my car. If you want the best products, flawless installation, and exceptional service, Car Audio One is the only place to go.

Great place ! When I got there the place was full, so I knew it had to be the place to go. As busy as they were I was greeted by John with a smile while analogy other customers. John listened to my needs and helped me out. When John found out this was for my 16 year daughter he went above and beyond for her needs. I forgot to mention that I did bring in my own stereo. That being said when I went to pick up my car parts that I took where broken. Andy was quick to find the part that were broken and had it installed. I would have had to buy a whole new XM system just because a little plug broke off when it stereo was removed. Thank you Andy ! As if that wasn't enough ! The speakers I chose were the wrong size. Adam quickly helped find the correct size speakers. Unfortunately they were not in stock. Adam gave me a great variety of speakers to chose from. But, Adam saw that I kept going back to a different set of speakers that were more expensive. When Adam found out that this was for my daughter he gave the speakers to the technician and said "install these". What could I say but WOW. great customer service. read more

Best place I could have asked for to walking in to get a surround sound. Have great loan opportunities and customer service wow. As soon as I got out of mi vehicle and headed in John greeted mi with a smile and most of all respect he let me know I would not be disappointed and in fact I was not had mi windows tinted, new alarm system, a back up camera installed great led lights to which they clean my front headlights as I it was out of the car dealership and well all the works for a surround sound (amp, subwoofer, front and back speakers) including a bass knob. To which a feels where upgrades. Wow I have way overjoyed. Installation took about a full 8 hr day but mi vehicle looked like a brand new car so many new gadgets including a touch screen to hook up my iPhone with. They also let me borrow a vehicle while they were upgrading my vehicle. Very affordable for all the work I got done. The owner Adam is very honest man he made sure I was content as well and for an owner to be that way really says it all. They take care of you as you were family.

Flagged Content: Worst place ever!! Don't take your vehicle here unless you want cheap low-grade parts and labor. Cheap aluminum wires.. Fire hazard installation. took my 2020 Toyota tacoma right off the lot to get a new sound system. When I picked up my new truck the next day my door panels were loose and scratched. My side mirrors didn't work, it had 40 more miles then when I dropped it off. When I tried my system it sounded like crap. They offered to give me an upgraded amp for free wich was refurbished. After going there 5 times with different issues I gave up. Took it to to another shop on Main st. Kenny there really hooked me up with quality stuff and work. He took out all the cheap wire that theese fools used. Gave them $2k for nothing. I feel robbed. It was a big time fire hazard and had melted plastic already under my seat! Stay away from these thiefs and do your research. Thiefs, scammers and frauds. STAY AWAY!! read more

I've been going to Car Audio One for years now and every time I go I am completely satisfied with my experience. Adam really takes care of his customers and makes sure they are taken care of. They have such a great variety of everything in store which makes it easy to find something you like. After talking with the guys there and doing some research online, I picked a stereo and was given a quote. I decided to check out the nearby shops but no one came even close to matching the quote Adam gave me. On top of already giving me the best price, they even threw in a back up camera for free!! The back up camera has really good quality even at night. Their prices are extremely competitive and they do a very clean job on the install. They had my car done in just a couple hours and even walked me through some of the features and tuning of the system! I recommend checking out this shop if you're looking to do anything to your car. read more

I walked in the shop with a budget in mind, Adam and Zach was quick to help me with all my needs and honestly looking out for your best interest. Adam absolutely hooked it up and Im telling you, he hooked me up with a stupendous deal with a couple of freebies (who here doesn't like freebies). I've been shopping around different places and no one, no one was able to beat the price and package that I was offered by Adam. Swing by the shop if you don't believe me, also check out some of their offers in OfferUp. Awesome service, clean install and great prices. I highly recommend them, your satisfaction is really guaranteed. You will not be disappointed. read more

I have been going to Tommy at Audio One since I first started driving in Imperial Beach. I have had all my stereos and vehicles tinted by them for the past 20 something years. We were sad as we drove by the old IB shop and thought they had went out of business due to Covid but low and behold! They moved near where my husband and I bought our new home. They have had all my families business from my Dad to now my oldest daughter! Their work is the best in town! I am so glad they are back in business! We will continue to always due business with Audio one because they have the best prices and their work is guaranteed! They gave me bonuses for being a long outstanding customer and I can't thank them enough! You guys are the best! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! I love my system and my back up camera is awesome!! read more

I highly recommend this place. I came in to this shop and was treated with superior customer service. They gave me an incredible price on an entire system. I would not give my business to anyone else. I live over an hour away and was well worth the drive. They have excellent product knowledge and know exactly what they are doing. A true one stop shop. You walk in and are amazed by how many choices and selections they have. I've been to many audio stores not only do they not come close in inventory but car audio one has the absolute best prices ANYWHERE!! I got quoted at a competitor and car audio ones price was less than half the price. I was amazed. Best overall experience I've ever encountered. They even threw some extra goodies for free to make my system even better. Check this place out!!!!!!!!!! read more

I recently had a camera recorder installed in my Toyota Prius at Welcome to Car Audio, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and meticulous in their work. From the moment I walked in, they made sure to understand my needs and recommended the best solution for my vehicle. The installation was flawless, with all wires neatly tucked away and the system working perfectly. They even took the time to explain the camera features and settings, ensuring I was comfortable using it. The quality of work and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for reliable car audio or tech installations, I highly recommend Welcome to Car Audio. They're the best in the business, and I'll definitely be returning for future upgrades! read more

I was quoted a price for two 10-inch subs in a LED box and an amp, and I agreed to it. However, they informed me that the box was out of stock. Surprisingly, they had a box for two 8-inch speakers that they claimed "hit harder than any 10-inch speakers they have." It was ironic that they had tried to sell me the 8-inch speakers when I first arrived. Despite this, I decided to purchase the 8-inch speakers, without adjusting the price for the smaller speakers. However, when I unwrapped the brand-new box, it was chipped, scuffed, and scratched. Although they managed to get me in and out of the store in an hour, my "new amp" is now just sliding around under my passenger seat. Don't get me wrong, the sound is great, but I had higher expectations for such a highly recommended shop. read more

First time ever getting speakers and stereo changed on my car. My brother picked out the place and choices for speakers and stereo and I can see he picked the best place in the Chula Vista area. Right after the team got to work. The shop has everything you need when it comes to stereos ,speakers, installation, variety, brands, models you name it. Ask for Big Joe, he's the guy you want to speak about your needs, he gives you security and brings out to you what is best for your needs and car. Questions, concerns he got it. Also, Big Joe and the team like to get things done so you don't need to worry about them lagging or some inconvenience. I can say it has been a wonderful experience, would come back for future needs., read more

I actually found these guys on a post from offer up. I was looking for a kenwood dns773s and they had them for an amazing price. To my surprise it turned out to be a car audio business that did installations too. The managers were super friendly and courteous. They are willing to work with you to get you what you need. All the pricing, even the installations, are fair. I went in for the head unit and actually ended up getting all of the parts and installation as well. Their installers are experienced, quick, and pay attention to the details. Everything from the pricing to customer service was excellent. I would definitely recommend these guys to my friends and hope to be back soon for some component speakers! read more

Which is quite stupid because the appointment was drop off at 9am and one of the guy told me that the car will be done at 12 prior to scheduling appt. But then switched to 3 the day off calling around 11am of appointment day. Then switched again to 4 and if you call speaking to a different guy he will tell you 7pm. Why have appointments if you will just keep the car all day. Called again at 330pm and was told that it will be done 4-430. But now it is 515 and still not done. Just a tint job I might say. One guy will say there's 2 guys working on the car but they outsource their tint jobs to windtech360 mobile tinting 619-382-7606. So I should've gone to those guys instead of this car audio one shop. Which is quite redundant but lesson learned. So please if you're going to this shop just avoid it because they will schedule you for an appointment just to keep your car all day literally and then outsource the job to another company. For the price and the trouble. Yea avoid this place. Better go to another spot.
