Got a backup camera installed on my box truck here and Esteban did a fantastic job!! The price was fair and the whole process was easy. I dropped the truck off and picked it up after the weekend with everything working perfectly. Would definitely do business with them again. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I got my car here to have equipment removed. And am in cue to coordinate a tow for pick up...the owner began texting me "pick up car now or I'm towing it" I told him I have coordinated one and I'm in cue. It's not instant. And he then said "he did so much for me " and that "he was getting it towed now" I would not trust this guy. Slimy and a scammer. Didn't even do the job and now I have to spend more money and waste my entire day trying to wait by the car for the tow. Even had to get the police involved. read more

I have a 2010 KIA Soul that is my daily driver. 108,000+ miles. The sound system needed a little love. It was tired. I didn't want to spend TOO much on my work car. I brought in some speakers that I'd gotten very good deals on via the internet. Picked up a couple more at JS Advanced. No hard sales or pressure, which I VERY much appreciated. 3 hour installation. Cost was about $200 less than I thought I'd be paying. The Kia's sound system has new life & sounds incredible! I'm SUPER happy & VERY satisfied with JS Advanced Car Stereo. I'll be back for future car stereo needs. Thank you Esteban & JS Advanced Car Stereo!!! read more

We needed a replacement stereo for our 2010 Toyota Highlander. Estefan researched the parts needed and installed a new JVC media player. Dealing with Estefan was a pleasure and the installation provided a perfect fit and provided more functions than the original equipment. We would definitely recommend JD Advanced Stereo and will use them for any future needs. Prices were good and the service was excellent. read more

I got ripped off and taken advantage by Esteban. Days after getting a new radio, rear view camera, and microphone for phone calls put in, I reviewed the bill and itemized charges with my eldest son. My son was appalled to see that pointed out that Esteban charged me over $200 for a rear view camera that can be bought for $60 on line. The radio put in was a cheaper model, and days later I discovered that the ANTENNAE WAS NOT HOOKED UP. I am a senior citizen, female, who walked in for service trusting that the quality of parts would be at least moderate in value and performance and that nothing would be inflated. My fault for not asking more questions, but it is can be hard to ask questions when you are naive and not knowledgable about car stereos and camera systems. Estevan was intimidating to deal with when I tried twice to talk to him about the pricing and quality of products. As a woman, I felt that I would have been better off having a man join me in trying to resolve the problems. I will never use this company again, and I highly recommend that buyers beware. read more

I had Estevan install a double din in my 2015 nc3 Miata. Gave my car a little update for it being an older model vehicle. Amazing service. 100% recommend him. read more

Had a great experience with JS Advanced Car Stereo. I'll spare you the story of how we got here, but needed a new stereo, and a full replacement of our air conditioning/heating system controls! They replaced the stereo, for the amount of their quote. Then followed up (that's a HUGE thing during these post-COVID times) with the necessary parts for the air con controls. Thank you Esteban! It was a pleasure to work with you and your team!! read more

Very nice people and very help full. New stereo and a lot less then the big box store down the road

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO THIS PLACE , Here's why - I brought my car in about a month ago I bought a brand android deck for mycar online...Because his were outrageously priced!!! So all he had to do was put the deck in thats it.. told me it will be ok we are experts, 1st said he would do it for $130.then when I brought it in the price went up to $ 250 .. right then I said well $300 is all i can afford..so proceeded.. a day later yeag had my car overnight. I CALLED next day cause was getting late , told me to come get it they just got done?? I get there he takes me in car and quickly distracts me withthe way it sounds, thats it didnt try to explaine how it works . Now hwe go inside and bills me $690.00. $250 for labor onthe deck ,charged me forr 17ft of speed wire my car is 11feet and inside it is even shorter rhan that. Broke my stock GPS antenna pf the top of my car ,and didn't say nothing to me about it at all. Also two scratchs on passengerside. And a ding , oh yeah Ripped out alll my brand new amp wires chsrged me for all new why ????never asked me to do that. He screwes the amp down on the back of the back seat another Thing they didnt ask ,the car was a mess wires clippings all over my stock deck. Just tossed in back. Plus if he is such a expert.why did .he run 4 RCA along with the power wire and ground , without. twisting them..... rookie move gives feed back in speakers. Listen. The car stereo install business is a hustle!! You dont need a degree, certification., school nothing. And they make almost as much ascertified mechanic.. I filed a lawsuit against this company to make sure he dosent rip anyone else off thank Hoover1.. m read more

They have always been really good. Had a small problem once but Esteban made it right fast. Reasonable prices. Will use again.

I needed speakers replaced so I bought four plus a sub with amp. I went to JS for install. On Monday, the Boss said to come back tomorrow. He pointed out all the cars ahead of mine. When I arrived early the next day he said he could handle it easily. I took the Rapidline downtown and set to work. He called at 2:30 - all done and early. I bused back and he showed me my invoice - more $100 less than quoted - all the cable harnesses were with the speakers I had bought - so zero parts; only installation and testing. The sound was great and I appreciated the service and the pride in their work. read more

Estiban is amazing. He's knowledgeable, patient, and takes the time to explain everything you want to know. They installed my mother's remote start with no issues and got it back to her way quicker than we thought. Highly recommend this place. Great prices and no BS. We are getting more services because we liked it so much. read more

If ever 5 stars wasn't enough, This is it. I guess the first thing is these super nice folks know how to make a customer feel like the most important customer ever. So after feeling great. They listened to what I wanted out of my driving environment and had very reasonable solutions. So now I can enjoy hands free talking on my phone and a stereo that plays music very very well. I was never over sold. The best is the installation crew. WHAT I MEAN IS... the installation was very professional. The crew doing the work really understands they are the most important part of the experience. By the way this review is based on 3 cars they have now worked on for me. Needless to say this place is not like most car stereo places. They are many steps above. I'll be bringing them another car very soon. My work van needs to be nice to work out of they will probably have great ideas. read more

I came in for a quote on an alarm. I ended up purchasing an alarm & stereo system because of the competitive pricing. I worked with Estaban for a price that worked in my budget...He was able to juggle around some numbers that worked out for me. His team had me up and running in less than a day & provided a warranty. They were friendly & professional, even offered my children beverages...I'd recommend this business! Angel C read more

Esteban and his crew install my KENWOOD stereo, SiriusXM tuner, steering wheel control and rear view/back up camera. Everyone in this shop was courteous and respectful. The work was top notch and everything works perfectly. This shop was recommended by a friend and it was a valuable tip. I trust them with my vehicle and will go back for any future upgrades!! Highly recommended!!! read more

I read a lot of reviews about JS Advanced Stereo and the owner Esteban. An overall four star rating here and everyone was extolling his honesty, great customer service, reasonable prices, and ability to do great work quickly. I was impressed and a little curious so I decided to go check it out. I had recently bought a used a truck, which I love, but it did not have an up to date stereo system. I know I am old school, but even I no longer have cassettes, lol. The speakers are great just needed a blue-tooth CD player. I didn't have a lot to spend on it and after I had had a frustrating visit to Car Toys this last weekend which left me thinking I was gonna be stuck listening to the radio for the rest of my life, I headed up to JS Advanced Stereo after work today. Estaban greeted me and asked how he could help. I explained what I was looking for and how I doubted I would be able to get what I needed in my budget, as well as installation. I explained how I had seen his store on Yelp and was impressed with the glowing reviews about him and his business. Within 15 minutes he had found a really nice Sony stereo for me and done some quick calculations and came up with a number I could handle. The total cost, new unit, all the extra needed for installation, and the install came to less than half of what CTs lowest offer was. He had the unit installed in less than an hour and I was cranking up Pandora and taking calls while I was driving, for the first time ever. So go see Esteban at JS Advanced Stereo. He will do his best to get you what you want at a reasonable price. Thank you for taking care of me and my truck. read more

Esteban and his team were able to get my Crosstrek in quickly to be diagnosed and they were able to address the issue the same day. Very skilled, knowledgeable and nice to work with. I will definitely be taking my care there again! read more

This guy is very honest. My vehicle has been plagued with electrical issues causing the battery to drain. I had thought it was the alarm. He spent 15 minutes with me at no charge just testing out my existing alarm before giving his opinion the alarm is probably not the culprit. I also had some speakers installed because the factory ones had long since died. Loving my new speakers. And they fit in the factory door panel so you could never tell I had them replaced accept for the sound. Great place, I recommend! read more

Clipping , trash, fuses everywhere. Extremly rude . Poor customer service. Charges more than an ASE mechanic does

Although I'm not proud of the fact that I had to get an ignition interlock installed on my car (DUI 6 years ago), I was lucky that my first choice of installers didn't work out. Esteban took care of all the paperwork for me. I left my vehicle with them overnight. when I went in the next day(today) to pick it up, I was greeted by another very polite gentleman that took me to my car and with the utmost patience, trained me on how to use the damn thing! It's not a comfortable thing to go through, but these guys made it a great experience!! read more

I just called to ask about rewiring my system and the asshole who picked up the phone was like "Yea so what do you want"? I want to bring my damn car in to see why my wires are messed up that's what I want and how much you charge. Like seriously I don't understand why people who have their own business are so rude to their customers. I'm definitely spreading word about how rude they're. I can easily take my car somewhere ELES. read more

I bought a car stereo off Craigslist after mine was stolen. I stopped by JS advanced car stereo to get an estimate and Esteban was professional and communicative from the start. He gave me an estimate of $65 and we scheduled the work for a couple days later. He called the day of my appointment to remind me. When I brought it in he got to work on it immediately and had it done in 45 minutes. He added a trim around it that made it look better since the stereo I had did not have that. He told me his work has a lifetime warranty. The final cost was exactly as estimated. I recommend this shop. I had called two other car stereo shops before going in to JS and they gave me a bit of attitude, so I appreciated Esteban's great customer service. read more

Been doing business with this place for about 4 years. I've had 5 stereos installed two sets of speakers and an alarm and two back up cameras. And power locks. He really sold me on the Puoneer NEX double din stereos and when I went in awhile back he discontinued saying he could not get serviced locally anymore. Why should I have a different brand in my wife's car when we are already familiar with that one. I went in today to have him put in a switch for my power locks and he explained to me there is a valet mode and told me I should read the instruction manual and instead of trying to show me how it works he just interrupted and told me to read manual. When I tried to tell him an issue with the reset button he interrupted me and I explained I was talking and to let me finish he said I was being sarcastic I told him I was done with his place and that he was an asshole. If you do business here be prepared for high pressure sales tactics and and you will likely leave with what you did not intend to get in the first place. I actually have a speaker he installed that has failed but I would rather go get one from another than deal with his inability to deal with a customer who may have an issue. I never price shopped him or looked him up I just wanted to do business with someone in my local neighborhood. Do your self a favor drive by this guy and Take your chances somewhere else. read more

Well I am officially a fan of these guys and most certainly a customer for life. I called earlier in the week to ask some questions and get prices. Esteban was patient and super helpful. I ended up making an appointment to get speakers installed for Friday at 4. I ended up having a conflict later in the day so I called them up at 9:30 to see if I could come in sooner. Esteban said to come in now. I arrived about 30 minutes later and Esteban greeted me enthusiastically. We looked at a few different options and he was patient and helpful. I decided on what I wanted and they started the installation right away. I was out of there less than an hour and a half later. The speakers sound great and I will certainly be back when I am ready to add a little more bump. Thanks guys! You rock. read more

I have stopped in here a couple times. Esteban knows what customer service is all about. I wish all businesses treated their customers as JS ADVANCED does. Thanks so much for being the cool local instal cat. I had first stopped at car toys in Burien- the guy was a total ass. Peace read more

Had my new apple car play stereo installed fast and good price. Wiring done very professional.

This place offers the kind of small-town, personalized, honest, no-BS customer service that you don't find very often these days. Esteban was very friendly, up-front, and great to work with. My story: I'd had a stereo installed at Car Toys in Belltown last year. When it died a few months later, it was still under warranty -- but by then that location was closed. So I took it to another Car Toys (wayyyyy out of town), only to find they weren't stocking that model anymore. After some drama, they swapped out the stereo with a replacement -- but Car Toys did a crappy job of installing it (rear speakers were dim, right side speakers no longer worked, static on the radio... all of which weren't the case before the swap). Needless to say, I didn't want to deal w/ driving all over creation, and I definitely didn't want to deal with Car Toys again. After seeing the reviews on the Yelp page for JS Advanced Stereo, I scheduled an appointment... and now I'm giving them 5 stars myself. They fixed the crappy installation pretty quickly, and all my speakers work fine now. They could have used this as an opportunity to sell me a new stereo or new speakers, but they didn't -- just fixed someone else's screw-up and charged me a fair price for their time. When I asked, Esteban let me know what options I had for upgrades without any hint of high-pressure sales. Great work, fair prices -- highly recommended. I'll be back the next time I need ANYTHING done with my stereo, speakers, or security system. read more

Very pleased with the information shared before the installation. This is what I wanted for my 02 Tundra. If you want out of your stock radio you owe it to yourself to stop by JS. I was told the installation would take two hours and when I returned less than 90 mins later the Tundra was outside the service bay waiting for pick up. The price quoted before the installation was what I paid. I highly recommend JS for your after market vehicle entertainment system needs. Thanks again guys. read more

Amazing customer service! I called to schedule an amp install and they got me in the very next day. The install was fast, professional and affordable. I will definitely recommend them to all my friends and I will be a returning customer. My Jeep sounds amazing. Thank you JS! read more

First Esteban was a customer at my work. I saw his shirt and asked him about installing an alarm on my car, and if it he could do it since it's Right Hand Drive from Japan. 'No problem, i'll take care of you". I drove down to his shop first to at least see if he was sketchy or not, but nope. Shop looked really legit, and professional. I scheduled a time after he gave me a great estimate/quote, two weeks later i was in, 4 hours later I was a happy man. Car Toys want twice as much for the same alarm. Alarm works GREAT, and I'll be back to see Esteban, and his crew. I highly recommend you check him out at least. read more

Thank you esteban my navigation system look awesome high recommend this place You rock read more

My Chevy truck was broken into. The wiring and my aftermarket blue tooth microphone were pulled at and they pulled and dislodged other wires and broke dash pieces out. I took my vehicle here to have an alarm installed. Not only was an alarm installed but they put all the wires back, got all the dash pieces and parts back together and they cleaned the truck interior as well. The final result was excellent. I was very happy and I was only charged for the price of the alarm and installation. I was so impressed with the customer service. I would highly recommend them. -Tony read more
