We recently went in for a car alarm and a stereo for a 2000 Jeep Cherokee. Milan was very professional and took care of our jeep in one afternoon. The place is great and the price was even better...would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat. read more

Diamond Car Audio - Diamond Audio - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ok, so let me start by saying this... Milan seems like a cool guy and my experience outside of the actual installation was good, however the actual installation is the most important thing when running an audio store. I brought my car in right before Xmas- I just got a new job and was about to make a cross-country trip with the family, so I decided to deck my car out to make the one-week trip a bit easier. So I decided I would get a new in-dash nav with the works (rear view camera, steering wheel controls, extra aux input, satellite radio) and get my front windows tinted (I was moving to hawaii). I called around to several stores for pricing, and after talking to Milan, he gave me the cheapest price and made it seem as though getting the installation was no problem- he just told me to bring the car in the next day and it would be good to go by the time I got out of work. Seemed great to me, so I arranged to drop the car off and have a friend take me to pick it up after work. This is where the trouble begins. I dropped my car off, no problem. When I went to pick up the car, I was informed that his tint guy couldn't make it so the tint didn't get done. Sigh. Ok, that's fine, as long as the rest was done... Then comes the bill. I was told all the work would be done for a grand. I get the bill which is $1100, and this is WITHOUT my windows getting tinted. I mention this and Milan nonchalantly acknowledges his quote but makes no adjustments and informs me that I can bring the car back for the windows to get done. Being that I'm kind of in a rush to get out of there, I said I'd try to find time to get back in, paid, and took off. As I'm driving home, I realize that half of the lights in my dash are out... Umm okay. I call the store back immediately and let him know, he says just bring it back in the next day and they'd take care of it. So I make it home, and in my lot start messing around with my new toys. I'm checking out all the functions, changing the colors on the unit, putting in my CDs to check out the audio, and... We'll problem #2. I put in a cd, crank it up, and the audio is garbled, wavering between quiet/loud, and basically sounds like complete garbage. I just put over a thousand bucks into my car and it sounds 10x worse than my factory system? Seriously?? I call back again and they said they'd look at it when they were doing the lights. They're willingness to look at the problem is all well & good, but it's not the most convenient thing for me to figure out how to get my car to the store, back to work, and then back to pick it up. Regardless, it had to get done so I made arrangements to drop it off the next day. On a good note, I arrange to drop it off on my lunch hour a couple days later, Milan agrees to try and get the tint done, the lights fixed, and the sound issues squared away, and on top of that, gets a guy from the shop to drop me back off at work. All is good, I get a call later that day that I can come pick it up after work (minus the tint because his tint guy couldn't make it again), which I do. He had fixed the lights in the dash, adjusted the interface which fixed my audio issues (all free of charge) and get the car back. All is good, and I'm on my way. So, everything seems fine at this point. I'm packing to leave Philly about a week later, where we realize that the tailgate window on my 4runner now doesn't go down. WTF. I don't have time to take it back at this point, so we suck it up, pack everything up, and hit the road the next day. On the trip, I manage to find a forum online & see that the tailgate is an electrical reset issue, which I can fix myself pretty easily. Nbd, fix it. When we get to middle America, I decide it's time to get our SiriusXM on, but when I switch to my satellite option, it is acquiring NO SIGNAL. As in the antenna was not installed correctly and there was no connection. Great, good thing I spent $75+ on getting something I can't use. Next, about 5 days into the trip, a loud buzzing starts coming out of the front right speaker. Seriously. I am getting infuriated at this point because I could have saved money and time at this point by ordering my own stuff off of crutchfield and doing the installation myself. After doing 5 minutes of research I find out that the the buzzing happens when wires are not properly shielded and installed to closed to each other... I just paid a "professional" a lot of money to avoid the hassle of self-installation, but got stuck with amateur workmanship. Anyways, I get my car to California, ship it out of port to Hawaii, get to pick it up about a month later (Jan. 20), and I now have a truck with a nice head unit, no satellite radio, an intermittently buzzing speaker that now also fades in & out, and no tinted windows... For $1107.00, not exactly chump change. The car has had maybe 2 weeks of use before everything went to sh*t, and I now have to take everything apart and reinstall it myself or pay another shop to redo it. Thanks! read more

Milan and his workers run a great shop. I went in to get a head unit for the wife's car. After asking a few questions, we went for a stereo with blue tooth and all the gizmos. install was fast and easy right away. I recommend you come here for all your car stereo needs. i have been shopping here for 8 plus years and will not go anywhere else. prices are competitive, people are polite and knowledgeable. read more

They are the Best. I had them install my Hornet system about 8 years ago, and it was all done quick, fast, and professionally. Milan is the ultimate on his word and his service. Their work is superior. read more

Pete from south philly here, the dudes at diamond are the best. Had a vibration issue with my door speakers, they stopped the vibration but the speakers were still getting too much bass. They slapped some bass blockers on them, problem solved. They also installed some JBL 6x9's in the back that thump as hard as any sub I have ever had. System really sounds top notch now. Had them also install keyless entry as well, which is a great help to me. Unlike other car stereo places in Philly, these dudes don't try to force you into adding a bunch of expensive upgrades that you don't actually need. They are very reasonably priced and do not feel sleazy, money hungry or high pressure like other places around town. Definately check them out if you want to take your car stereo system to the next level and impress some peoples eardrums! read more

I called and spoke to Milan about a remote start unit for the wife's car. Next thing I know I'm dropping the car off and picking it up all in the same day and all within about 5 hours! Doesn't get much better than that! Very competitive price too on a Viper unit. I highly recommend this place of business. read more

After 22 years of loyal service to me, the car radio on my 1992 Taurus decided to not give off any sound. I searched for car radio shop in Center City or South Philly and found Diamond Auto Radio. I drove up yesterday and asked them to look at it. They were inb midst of a job and asked if I could come back today. I live about 20 blocks away and they said they'd take me home and pick me up if I brought in today. True to their word, I arrived at 9:45 AM, was driven home, they called me at 10:45 to say the radio was dead and they'd replace it with a Pioneer model for a very fair price. At noon I got a call that the driver was outside my house to take me to pick up the car. I was even more surprised the unit has a CD player (my old one only played cassettes) and there a jack to play from an MP3 player! Oh, I forgot - it has a remote too! The neighborhood where Diamond is located is full of auto repair shops but Diamond has an parking lot and inside the store it is clean and immaculate. I couldn't have been happier with Milan (the managerr) and his helper (and guy who drove me home) Eric. read more

4 or 5 years ago they installed a remote starter in my wife's car. She told me it had stopped working so I took it back. I could not find my reciept but I was not expecting the work to be covered under my original warranty. It was a quick fix ,no charge. I will be back. read more
