To address the terrible audio for my Toyota I Force Max Capstone truck I went to Cartronics where I purchased Alpine speakers and a Memphis amp at cartronics located at 490 NE 167th Street, Miami, FL 33162. After installation and $2,000 in the sound was horrible and anyone calling me on my I-phone hands free would hear an echo. I returned to find the business closed and shuttered. I went to another audio business and found they did not replace all my speakers and failed to wire the system correctly, as well as failed to do a correct system installation. I'm now having to spend more money to correct . I would stay away from Cartronics , don't throw you money out the window like I did. read more

This business reminds me why service industry should be privately owned. Professional and dedicated. These staff does not focus on clocking out but rather finishing the job efficiently. Highly recommended!! read more

I took my 2004 Chrysler Crossfire to Cartronics to have a stereo system installed. I'm not an audio expert so I told the guy (unfortunately I can't remember his name) that I primarily listen to Hip Hop and 70's soul and I wanted something loud,clear,and that I could hear the bass and drums. He responded with: "You want something good?" To which I responded with: "YES!" The guy (I believe his name was Carlton ) proceeded to pick out an Alpine Bluetooth receiver,four Alpine speakers,and a JBL subwoofer. He added it up and as I went to pay he said: "No,pay me after it's installed and you have a big smile on your face." I watched as the technicians installed the system because I was anxious and couldn't sit still. They worked fast and when they were done they put everything back together as it was. That was a concern that I had. I have to say that I couldn't be happier with what I have!!! It sounds so good that I spent hours in the car that night just riding around listening to music. I'm completely satisfied,a big smile was on my face,and I didn't spend and arm and a leg for the system. MAJOR SHOUT OUT TO THE ENTIRE STAFF AT CARTRONICS!!!! You've gained a loyal customer and I'd recommend them for your car audio needs. Thank you. read more

The message I got was "We could care less". I wanted to like this place. Went in for a written quote for a double-din stereo and four door speakers installed. For labor it was 89.95 for the stereo, and 79.95 for the front speakers to be installed and 79.95 for the rears. When I showed up a week later to get the work done I was told that the quote was wrong, by the same person who wrote the original quote. That I was quoted for a single-din installation, and that double-din stereos were 149.95 to install. And they acted like it was "only 50 dollars" and somehow my fault. They didn't care at all it seemed to me. And if they don't care about my business, then I won't bother with them. It's hard to imagine a business owner treating potential customers this way, so I can only guess that it was an employee. read more

This place quoted me $70 to LOOK at the issue with my external subwoofer. Customer service was horrible and they acted as if they didn't want to work on my car because I wasn't getting a full audio system. I needed minor repairs on an external subwoofer that lost connection and they wouldn't even look at it without charging me $70 first. read more

Super super happy with the audio system they put into my truck. Process was extremely fast and efficient. Would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing audio sound system. read more

I am VERY happy with stereo I got from Alan. installation was very smooth and quick. Then my son got new system for his older Porsche from Alan. very satisfied with entire process highly recommend you deal with this shop , Alan very knowledgeable and helpful. prices are very fair too. read more

This is my go-to place for all car audio installations, speakers, radios, etc. They do a fantastic job in service installations and have excellent prices on products. These are professional installers and they have been doing this for years. Dont trust big box store installations done by kids that have no experience. Bring it here, to actual professionals! read more

Easily the best experience I've ever had at an automotive electronics installer. Affordable prices, professional installation and polite customer service. I was a little concerned about the installation due to the car being a Lotus Evora but they are clearly experienced installers and left the dash undamaged. The 7 inch Alpine iLX-107 installed is perfect for iPhone users and fits just right inside a Lotus Evora. It connects wirelessly to your iPhone when you get inside your car without you having to touch anything. It has a quick and responsive clear touchscreen, works with a backup camera and has a large amount of audio options. Perfect! read more

These guys are great. They put a dash camera system into my Mercedes and it looks and works great. Had one issue and they handled it quickly and without any drama whatsoever. read more

Very happy with their work! Eddie did most of the work but the whole team worked together for me to fulfill all the needs my new work van required. Would definitely recommend them! read more

4.5 stars When I initially called for an estimate to install a head unit purchased off-site along with a front dash cam and reverse-camera, the estimate I was given was approximately $225. When I arrived on site, that estimate increased to $280. To be fair, I called a few other businesses as well, and their estimates were around $250-300. Since I was there already, I decided to forego the dash-cam to save a little money plus it was a cheap camera. I plan on getting a quality front and rear dash cam later (it's almost a necessity living in Miami). The only other issue have is a persistent & vexing metallic rattling noise coming from the rear cabin, perhaps in the trunk area or rear quarter-panel that only started after the install. I've emptied my rear-seat and trunk to verify it is a problem within a panel. I plan on returning to get the dash cam install done and hopefully they can resolve the rattling issue. Once that's completed I'm sure I will be leaving a 5 star review. The sad reality when it comes to getting service in Miami (at least in my experience) is that sometimes you have to pay a bit more than expected to get quality service. You could take a risk and go someplace cheaper, but you are more likely to get poor quality. This is why these reviews are so helpful. read more

Quick service. Well done and very satisfied. Highly recommend. Good value and service

Couldn't be happier with the installation job these guys did. As a Christmas present decided to upgrade my audio system, with a top notch audio, video, internet, nav system (Not bought it in Cartronics, I must say). Kai gave me the estimate, and suggested also a rear wide view camera, that was supported by the unit. The price was right and in about two hours I was enjoying my new super cool gadget. Merry Christmas!!! read more

Last Friday I was a bit desperate, I accidentally unplugged my radio plug as I was installing a cabin filter and went to Cartronics and they came out and detected the issue , they were very busy however they took a couple minutes to help me out . Definitely going soon to get music System upgraded . read more

Alan, Allen. Allan or however you spell your name. YOU ROCK!! I drive an old beat-up GMC Pick-Up. A few months away from antique plates. Suddenly the radio starts playing only the treble (highs). I called Cartonics on Biscayne and Allen said: "bring it in." As soon as Allan (friendly outgoing guy) turned it on he said it was the speakers. "No Way" - says I. It has 8 speakers and if you leave it on long enough it starts to work like it used to. Still, Alan insists it's the speakers. I don't believe him, but I got a quote for the speakers (not much) and a replacement Radio/Deck (a little more much) and took an Uber home. An hour Allan calls - says it is just the speakers) I only had 2 replaced as I don't care about the speakers in the back. Sure enough - it sounds great - it turns out I had only been listening to one speaker and had gotten used to it as they all failed one by one. The new speakers are not top of the line but so much better than what I had. Allen could have replaced the whole system and charged my top dollar. What did I know? Yet the final cost was less than his first estimate. Not many honest guys out there. Alan of Cartronics is one of them. (Also gave a nice tip to the installer) - still felt like I won the lottery! Hurray for honest guys! read more

It's a great place to get your sound system upgraded! You are dealing with professionals. I like to do a little research on the equipment I am getting before any kind of installation and let me tell you that Allan, the owner, advised me with the right setup and he is very knowledgeable. Not only does he know about sound systems but what your type of vehicle actually needs to get the best system! You can trust those guys on the quality of work, pricing and patience (very important in Miami!) dedicated to your new sound system. read more

Hands down the only place I would trust my vehicle with. What a professional and knowledgeable team they have. I brought in my Jeep to upgrade the very weak stock system. I dropped the car off when they opened, picked it up 5 hours later and it was an entirely different sound experience. New head unit, upgraded speakers and subwoofers. Car was meticulous and sounded amazing. Will definitely go back if I get a new vehicle. Thank you guys for an amazing upgrade job! read more

MY CAR CAUGHT FIRE! I had these people install my amps and speakers in my Lexus GS 300 about a year ago . The quality of work was poor, and the fuse block in the front melted. I went back and they gave me a hard time to replace it. Yesterday my car caught fire. I went back and they said, "I don't know what to tell you." They don't not stand behind their work. Now I am faced with thousands of dollars worth of damage! BUYER BEWARE! NEVER LET THESE PEOPLE WORK ON YOUR CAR! read more

The camera backup in my 2014 Grand Cherokee stopped working last week. After a horrible experience at the dealer who refused to fix the system installed by them and still under warranty, I decided to look for greener pastures. And I found the greenest of them all at Cartronics!! After a call and a visit, Alan -the owner- made me feel at home. Not only he gave me a detailed explanation of what his team would do, he diagnosed the issue and came up with a repair well within my budget. After struggling with the dealer I had little hope the camera backup could be fixed quickly. Yet, the same day I visited Cartronics, 2 hours later I was on my way home with a full, perfect rear view of the back of my Jeep. Inexpensively!! Alan and his friend Jefffrey chatted with me during my wait. I laughed so much and felt so good that I felt a bonus or token of gratitude was in order. Hopefully, others reading this review will save time, completely avoid dealer-thugs and use the services of professional business owners like Alan. And thanks to Jeffrey for the laughs if you ever read this. read more

Good work, reasonable prices and nice selection. I've had several things done here, such as replacing the standard stereo and all the wiring in my Mercedes for an Alpine system, an amp as a gift for my brother's BMW and most recently, tints for my two new luxury cars. Their work is consistent and fast and the owner, Allan is easy to deal with and customer focused. I'd recommend this place to any one looking for car electronics or tints. read more

You don't want the Nerd Herd tooling around in your vehicle. Trust me. Been there, done that, got the T-Shirt. Go with this business and you won't be sorry. These guys are professionals. This is a classic case of "you get what you pay for." You're getting service. You're getting experience. You're getting authorized dealer trained and familiar with the product. The owner is very passionate about audio systems and even sat me down in his own car to demo what he can do because, lets face it, the speaker wall isn't the same thing as inside a car. I feel comfortable calling them up and bouncing a question or concern off them any time. I upgraded the factory radio in a 2001 Acura CL from CD/Tape Deck/FM/AM to a CarPlay/AndroidAuto/FM HD Radio/AM/DVD/CD Big screen beauty and it was worth every penny. The price was very competitive and the peace of mind of having someone to install and setup with actual experience rather than some kid who watched a YouTube video working at a BuyMore is something I really appreciated. I purchased a DDX9902S Kenwood receiver and it was THE first one that these guys had seen because it had been in the warehouse only a few days and just released at the time (I'm writing this review nearly 5 months in retrospect). After the install the owner was equally interested in how it worked out (totally new product, Kenwood's first foray into the smartphone interface market) so we used his Android and my iPhone to test it out for ease of use and how well it works. It works well BTW but I'll let him tell you about it when you go there. The point of this story is that the guys there really care about learning new systems and being knowledgeable for the next customer who walks in the door and it shows in everything they do. They do more than radios too. I saw security systems, keyless entry, speakers, woofers, radios, backup cameras, and who knows what else I didn't see. read more

Took my 370z to Cartronics today to get a quote for an alarm system. Spoke with the owner Allen and he gave me a really good price. The business was really busy but he was able to take me in the same day. I'm a happy camper, my car was completed an hour before he estimated. The alarm is working and everything looks professionally wired. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for competitive prices, good and honest service. read more

The service is great and all employees including the owner are really nice and helpful.

This is such a great store. I've shopped around and been into stereos for along time and have never seen anybody compare to the high quality work and great service provided by Cartronics. They helped me accomplish all my needs for a reasonable price. They were also very fast. I am always impressed every time I stop in. read more

These guys are amazing. Alan really cares and goes above and beyond. His prices are fair and if you find it cheaper he works with you. I've taken 4 cars over the years to him and he's always done an amazing job. His installers are top notch and have been at it for years. Best part is any time I've had a problem with any cables, like my iPhone simple cable, they've replaced it for free. I'm so glad to have found these guys. read more

The best place to get your car equipment installed. They repaired my car after I had taken it to the wrong place to do the job. If you need the job done right the first time go there read more

They do great work but you will pay 3 TIMES what you would pay for at any COMPETENT FLEA MARKET INSTALLER. Remember this is not rocket science people. Run wires here, run wires there. A speaker here and a speaker there. Like I said not rocket science. I brought my car here and they quoted me for 1500 for installation only. I brought my car to chachys on 27th Ave and he did it for 400 installation only. And there was no custom work either. I am more than satisfied with chachys work. So if u wanna pay Biscayne Blvd prices for flea market worK, by all means help yourself. read more

Had a double din radio, amp, subwoofer, and back up camera installed on my car here. The gentlemen here were knowledgable and the prices are fair. The installation was done well and i'm happy with everything. read more

Alan is one of the nicest and most professional people Ive dealt with in the 10 years Ive lived in Miami. I had an issue where something sounded off and he warmly invited me back in and was patient while we figured it out. Excellent service!! read more

Alan was a huge help in replacing my 4 blown speakers and tweeters. He was extremely knowledgable and made sure my new speakers were worlds better than my VW factories. The job was done in 2 hours flat. I couldn't be happier with the service provided. Plus, he gave me some tips on some great eateries nearby. Thanks, Alan! read more

I'm giving them 5 stars because they did a Awesome Job at putting in this stereo with Blue tooth and Back up camera . Took about 3 hours and I love it ! Thank you read more

Really impressed, came in to get a new car radio put in. Alan went over different options with me as well as pricing, and started working on my Jeep my right away. I was in and out in about an hour. Really good customer service, I'm happy I found a local place to go to for these things that seems honest and reliable. Overall excellent experience read more

Our VAN caught on fire and is dead now! Yes... These people are a scam big time. We took our company van in to this place to have a horn installed and some lights put underneath it. every time we honk the horn the van died. Then the van began to smoke.(We just had this done yesterday Nov 1st 2012. ) When the car started to smoke really badly at a red light we pulled over and noticed that the guy who worked on the van dd not put the radiator cap back on... and he pierced the radiator on the van... DO NOT TRUST THESE LOSERS I never wanted them to do this work but the guy who owns the van insisted he wanted these things done. BUT PLEASE DONT LET THeSE PPL TOUCH YOUR VEHICLE our van has a cracked head and is dead on the side of the road. read more

Love these guys. Under new direction from experienced car stereo expert Allen, this is your spot. He keeps solid inventory and he puts a guarantee on install and components and the job is done in a clean and timely manner. Prices are great and he has an expert tech specializing in all facets from tint, to stereo, to subwoofer box build out. C'mon, are you really going to take your Rolls to Best Buy? Go with the pros. read more

Clean radio installation in a somewhat older car, now 3 months later, no issues. My only complaint would be that the waiting area wasn't very inviting so killing time waiting for the installation was a bit of a drag but hey, the radio works great and thought the owner and installers were top notch. read more

I had a dash cam installed in my Porsche.. It took less than an hour for the job to be complete. Very clean with no visible wires. Alan who sold me the kenwood unit was very helpful in making sure that the unit I purchased had all the features I wanted. This is the second time going to Cartronics. My previous Porsche they installed new speakers and the job was excellent then too. There is a wonderful coffee shop next door that had amazing espresso. read more

I'm from San Diego, needed a quick exchange of an entire $7000 sound system with the factory speakers so I could turn in my lease. I don't know much about Miami, I'm glad I chose this place (my choice was based on the ratings). Their charge was about half of what I expected, and done very cleanly and quickly. The showroom is very clean and welcoming, nice first impression. Miami is lucky to have such a professional place like this that just genuinely cares about people. read more

I had my XM/Sirius system installed there recently, the staff was very accomodating, friendly, quick, gave me tips, overall a very pleasurable experience! Overall the people at Cartronics,are very knowledgable, they seem to care about giving the consumer not only good service but recommend options to have an optimal sounding system in your ride! Their prices are neither cheap nor expensive, likely justifying the quality installment of audio gear. I had a small Issue with the mounting bracket for my XM receiver but it was reinstalled free of charge. Now thats Quality service (something that seems to lack in greater Miami) I highly recommend Cartronics for all your auto & truck Audiovisual needs!!! read more

I had HID's installed in my Lexus IS350. He had to order the kit, and as promised it arrived early the next morning. He originally told me it would take around 2 hrs, but it only took about an hour. A miscommunication left my impression of the job on a bad note; however, Allen and his crew (a cool black guy) corrected the issue with no questions asked. I left more than satisfied, and now my HID's are blinding everybody :) these guys are the real deal. read more
