I met Nick many years ago when I needed an honest factory tech for my Rega P5 turntable. It was…read moreintroducing an electrical hum into the phono stage and the Rega rep who originally sold it to me wanted to sell me new tubes for my preamp instead of identifying the problem with the turntable. I walked out and never went back. Since then I've relied on Nick to help me put together a sound system that I am now *very* happy with. No BS, just solid advice, long experience, an impressive depth of knowledge and a genuine desire to get you the best sound you've ever had. Nick will tell you the truth. He can repair and upgrade as well. He primarily represents Audio Note UK (which now comprises the bulk of my system) but he specializes in getting the best sound, new or pre owned, for you within your means. This is genuinely important to him. Nick and his wife Lee are good people. I trust them.

Bass so full and concentrated, it makes my coffee dance into drops. And the mids? Ahhh the mids. It's like love. True, mad, first love. Taut and perfumed like an exotic spice wood violin bow, warm-honey rich and loving beyond generosity. My special order speakers have yet to arrive, but already listening to the sound system that Tim made for me is how I imagine picnics in heaven. Tim was in craft, he is in art. Expect directness, honesty, detailed instructions. Tim walks the fine line between grace and sternness, and comes through with grace. Way ahead of the competition.

Music Lovers Audio & Video is exactly what its name promises, and Spencer Giel is exactly the kind…read moreof person you want guiding you through one of the most rewarding and dangerous journeys you can embark on as an audiophile. I came in as someone just getting into the high end audio market, surrounded by gear I could only dream about, and Spencer never once made me feel unwelcome or out of place. I've visited other stores where you can feel judged the moment you walk in based on your wallet size. That was never the case here. As someone around my age with the same passion for amazing sound without millionaire budgets, he got it immediately. He worked with me from start to finish, helping me build a system that punches well above its price point. The result was a carefully curated blend of tubes and solid state that created a synergy I didn't fully appreciate until I heard it all together. He helped me select my Paradigm Persona 5F speakers, Audio Research LS27 preamp, Parasound A21+, AudioQuest Niagara 3000, and interconnects. Each brand chosen with intention, Paradigm out of Toronto, Parasound originally based right here in San Francisco, Audio Research from Minnesota, and AudioQuest from Irvine CA. Respected names with solid reputations in the audiophile community that fit my budget without compromising on quality. Any system I was curious about I was able to audition without any pressure or hesitation. That kind of access says a lot about how they treat customers. And it doesn't stop at the sale. They helped with three moves of my audio gear, something regular movers simply are not equipped to handle with equipment this precious. They also helped connect my system which is a level of service you just don't expect from a retailer. That kind of relationship goes well beyond a transaction. The store itself is filled with incredible gear across some of the most coveted lines in the industry. McIntosh, Audio Research, Boulder, Anthem, dCS, and speakers from Paradigm, KEF, Wilson, Sonus Faber, and more. They also specialize in home theater if that's your thing. Just be warned, every visit is a little dangerous to the wallet. And don't overlook their preowned section either, it's where real bargains hide. That's how I picked up my Audio Research preamp for half its original price. This place is a "Music Lovers" dream whether you are just starting out or building your end game system. Ask for Spencer Giel, he's the real deal!

If i needed a TV or home entertainment system set up,I would call and have Stew do his thing with full faith and confidence in his work,pricing and subsequent customer service! I could not give someone on YELP a higher recommendation.I would ask this guy to babysit for me if I needed a babysitter-LOL-I totally trust him and you can as well! :). This is NOT a paid endorsement-this place and the owner are everything you want in sales and service!

These guys are great and a truly under-the-radar gem…read more I was having a tough time choosing between crappy service / clueless help and low prices from the big chains when I was introduced to these guys. Their showroom is bare-bones at best but their service is off the charts and the prices are scary low. Let me give you an idea of how good the service is. We had to make a compromise on the installation because of a 'wife acceptance factor'--no way she wanted some big piece of equipment exactly where it needed to go because of the way it looked. We knew this would cause a drop in performance, but I said OK and signed off anyway. But here is the thing. A month later, Stuart called up and said 'hey can I drop by' and said he had been thinking about the issue, made a modification and everything worked better--at no extra charge, just for free and because he wanted the job to be perfect. This was a month AFTER I had paid for everything and signed off! Would Circuit City do that for you? I think not. They have also talked me into less expensive options more than once. That ever happen to you at Best Buy? These guys are the best, by far, for high end entertainment installation.
