I have brought my car to Mike's Sound Solutions for all of its upgrades since I bought it last year. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dylan and Mike have both been extremely helpful and I have been very pleased with the results.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have installed my front and rear dash cams, a Viper car alarm, and upgraded my horn. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The crew is a fantastic group of guys, very knowledgeable, have excellent customer service, and are great to work with.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I highly recommend making an appointment for your sound and upgrade needs. It's been worth the drive for me from Sacramento to Elk Grove for their A+ service. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Called for a quote and ended up being rushed off the phone and hung up on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bad timing of the day.

I totally recommend this. Shop heard a lot of good things about them a few friends that have classic cars. They've done a great job. They inform you of any overcharges they have you sign to proceed with particular jobs. Totally honest. And they do great work. What I wouldn't do is go to Audio export Vince, Miranda this individual is a total con artist got me for approximately from what the he does not approve any of his charges in fact, I suspect, and I say it again, I suspect given all my receipts that I got from this guy that they were photo shopped he added charges when we went to court his invoices some had lines through them and others did not again I would steer away from Audio expert. Vince Miranda very careful with him. You better get everything in writing from the get-go if you do decide buyers beware. read more

Idk how anyone here has had good experience. I spent 3,000 dollars on audio here and I've had a pretty poor experience. Not necessarily with anyone but the work itself. First day sub was cutting out. They replaced the sub. Same thing was happening then they said I was just turning my bass up to high. Okay maybe it's just me. So I turned it WAY down and it still happens to this day. So I just dealt with it. Well a year later now all the speakers cut out randomly now and I'm out of warranty so I just blew 3,000 dollars on a system that doesn't work. at this point it's pretty clear something wasn't wired correctly. For 3,000 I don't expect my subs and speakers to be cutting in and out. And for 3,000 dollars I most certainly don't want to hear it's my fault when I didn't touch a thing and I don't play my music at unreasonable volumes. I asked for the best you guys have. And if this is your guys best... you guys should just go out of business. Because for 3,000 dollars that's very mediocre. Could have got a better set up elsewhere for 1,000. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Recently Came in for a wire and ran into Mike. Figured he would remember me since I spent 3 grand at this store. NOPE. He said oh... you look kinda sorta familiar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Then proceeded to try and sell me a subwoofer after I told him I don't feel like talking too much I just got my wisdom teeth pulled. But he kept talking. I was very annoyed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Maybe if you remembered who I was you'd know I had a subwoofer installed here for top dollars. Then maybe you could ask me how my sound system is and if there's anything I need. But no. You were ready just take more of my money. Wouldn't give this place another nickel. Ever. 3,000 dollars and a year later I have a mess of a sound system that needs to be replaced/fixed with no clear way to get any of my money back. ZERO STARS. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Feel bad for writing this review because I like Brandon. But this is so unacceptable. BEYOND unacceptable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think this might be the worst purchase I've ever made in my entire life. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere please. Negative stars if I could. 3,000 dollars is a lot of money to just thrown down the drain for no reason at all. read more

I got scammed. Made an appointment to drop my car and have the radar detector wire fixed. They said it will be ready at noon. 1pm it was not looked at. Tech went into the car for 3 minutes and returned with a broken wire. They charged $150.00 for 3 minutes work and did not repair the radar detector power. They stated that is their usual bill for 'diagnosis'. I didn't ask for diagnosis, I already knew it was broken. Why even drop the car with all that hassle back and forth for 3 minutes?? Why $150 to remove a wire I could have pulled myself? Don't go here! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Zero customer service and they don't care about anything but getting your $$[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. read more

Took my truck to the to have a system installed. I had the subs and amp already took them to install.purchased a deck from them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They did the install went to get the truck he said they installed one of their amps because the new sub amp didn't work but didn't not say anything until I was there to pick the truck up about it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. they pulled it apart and unplugged a connection so it wouldn't work and charge me more for a amp. Took truck back 3 weeks later because the radio will randomly make statick noises and a winning sound. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Calls me 5 hours later said it's my other amp the connections are bad again a new amp.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. well I pulled the carpet up and wires not wrapped. Shitty work shitty person don't stand behind their work read more

Mike's Sound Solutions - The reason my radio makes noise shitty install - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I paid $800 to have them install my sub and amp they sold me the wires, bass knob and grom kit for Bluetooth. I'll start off with how they broke the plastic latch under my dash installing the bass knob so now its just split open. Maybe 1 month later I'm having complete failure with the subs getting an OVL light on the amp and one sub is not working. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Took it back to have them look at it, Mike had me turn the system on, listened to it for about 20 seconds and said that the subs were done for and just needed to be trashed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He immediately goes into quoting me for new subs and box. I decide to get a second opinion at Car Audio Engineers in Natomas, not only did they do a free inspection but he figured out the problem in less than 5 mins. BOTH subs worked just fine but the box was splitting, the terminals on it were lose and the amp wasn't tuned so it was causing power issues. This place is a money hungry scam, take your business elsewhere!!!!! read more

I recently had an issue with my car stereo--no volume after another party worked on it--and decided to take it to Mike's Sound Solution in Elk Grove, CA. I'm so glad I did! [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the start, Mike took the time to listen to my issue and immediately had one of his techs run diagnostics to pinpoint the problem.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even though the team was busy, they worked efficiently to get me taken care of. Not only did Mike cut me a great deal, but they also went above and beyond by checking for any battery drain after fixing the issue. I know this shop has received some mixed reviews, but my experience was nothing short of excellent. The team works hard to ensure customer satisfaction, and their dedication shows. If you're looking for fast, reliable service from people who know what they're doing, I definitely recommend Mike's Sound Solution. Thanks again, Mike and team! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Shoutout to Mike, Dylan and Brandon for the added sound to my F150.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Purchased a 2024 Ford F150, the stock radio had mediocre sound quality, I stopped over and spoke with Dylan, he recommended the Audison APBX 10DS, after much debate, I decided on it. The sound quality is amazing and adds the much needed punch it was missing. The installation was quick, the price was very reasonable. I'd highly recommend them, their knowledge and workmanship is top notch. Thank you guys... read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Checked into Mike's Sound Solutions for a dash cam install & my first impression was positive![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are busy, but staff is friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They are playing music and the vibes are happy and chill. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Im excited to see the finished product![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Had a stereo installed and less than a couple weeks later came back for trunk speakers and amps for my WRX. Sounds great!!

Dylan, the floor Manager is a good/honest guy. I brought my new Mini Cooper there for a Sub/Amp install using my own equipment. After the installation was completed a few hours later, I was told by the owner Mike, they needed to keep it overnight to troubleshoot the weird Car sound from the stock BMW system or come pay for the install & take the car home with the weird sound? I was like, why the F$&@ would I take the car home sounding like crap? That defeats the purpose pf adding the Bass/ Amp install!!!!!!!!!!! Long story short, I left the Car there overnight hoping Dylan would find the fix. The next morning, I stopped by and spoke to Dylan and he did found out why it was making that weird sound. If you own a later model BMW or Mini Cooper (BMW owns them) there are factory codes that needs to be turned On/Off for certain features using either BimmerCode or take it to the Dealership. Dylan got it all figured out and was honest with the fix. I appreciate that from this shop and will definitely use them in the future for any stereo related install or consultation. I will only deal w Dylan here read more

If you want quality work completed, then this is your go to spot. Mike is friendly, informative, and very knowledgeable when it comes to automobile sound. I did my due diligence and obtained bids from three other local auto stereo establishments, as I like to keep my business local. Two of the other bids were about half the price that Mike quoted me and one was $600 more. My saying is you get what you pay for. I'm fanatical about who works on my BMW's and the cheaper quotes just didn't feel right and I wasn't comfortable having them work on my car. I've known Brandon (installer) for many years and I've always trusted him to do a good job. Well, I wasn't disappointed. The job was done on schedule and without any additional expenses. I took Greta out for a spin with Mike to check for rattles or any unusual sounds. The sound was perfect. No rattles at all. Mike may not be the cheapest, but you won't have to worry the quality of their work, because it's outstanding. I highly recommend Mike's Sound Solutions. read more

Mike and his crew did an amazing job! Mike used my stock factory stereo so that when somebody looks into the car, one would not be able to tell if there was any special equipment. Mikes also hid the new speakers behind the factory trim. He explained his wiring process which made me feel secure with the electrical installation. I received a crystal clear, and powerful system that was catered to my needs and exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Mike"s Sound !!!!! read more

Please support this great business. My Xmas present was a Dash Cam, of course, I couldn't install so Mike's Sound Solutions installed for me. If you can, support this business & purchase their products. Thanks Installer's... read more

Went there with my 72 C10 to explore some sound options and alarm. I ended up doing both and very happy with the speaker install, small sub and alarm. read more

Outstanding service and great deal from Mike the owner. Did not expected to buy a car audio, my tuck stereo went out. Mike gave a fair quote better than any car stereo shop in Elk Grove. While my truck is being worked on. Mike dropped and picked me up from home . After the new radio is installed, he sat with me inside the truck and gave me quick instructions. my new Sony stereo, is way above my expectations. Its good to know that treating customers with dignity is still around read more

I came into their store a couple weeks back to purchase a stereo and back camera system for my car. They recommended the Kenwood system. They were able to install the system the same day. I'm very happy with the results and would highly recommend them. read more

Update: The owner did contact me via text and call. Super appreciate that. Once I replaced my battery, everything worked great. I love the sound, the wiring, and quick disconnects on my saddlebags. I did instead a few sheets of sound suppression material too. Heh, heh, heh! . Overall, I'm happy. However, nothing will ever change my mind with regards to the battery charging protocol for motorcycles. Charge them Mike. Other than that, I would have given a solid 5star review. Hope this helps everyone. Great job, Communication is great, just ensure the date of your battery. read more

These guys are amazing!!! This is the only car audio shop, and I've been to quite a few, that took the time to look am my setup and walk me through options. They helped me figure out a long term game plan and how to slowly upgrade my system without unnecessary purchases. Brandon and Dylan (the installers) were f-ing awesome! Huge thanks to them. read more

I came to Mikes with an emergency, my amp had blew and I didn't know how to disconnect it. It was smoking and everything I was terrified that my car was going to catch fire. He not only disconnected it for me, but he showed me how to do it myself. I respect that so much! He then made a follow up appointment to check out my entire system and get it back up working better than what it was before. Mike is an honest man, he didn't try to price gouge me, or treat me any different because I was a woman. I am now a forever customer and will bring all of my cars to him! I highly recommend him, his customer service is on point and so is his pricing. read more

I took my Harley to Mike's to have them check and replace my deck and front speakers. They gave me options on pricing from good to expensive my choice. The work was completed the same day. A month later I had feedback took it in and they found the issue, it was previous wiring to back speakers they fixed and replaced the speakers. Mike is trying to do the right thing for everyone. I recommend my brother to take his bike to Mike's which he will be doing soon with another one following him. read more

Found Mike sound solution on Yelp but had sent out a few request for proposal. They were fair in price quoting me between $80-$120 to remove a ignition kill transmitter. When I got there he said he will only charge me $80, When all was done it took less than 10 mins and he decide to only charge me $55. Super fair and honest, as I was already willing to pay $80. My experience has been 5 star and would recommend this location for your sound and car alarm needs. read more

Was having an issue with blown speakers and wiring issues on a used truck I bought. Mike quickly diagnosed and explained the issues I was having and made some recommendations. His recommendations were based on the sound I was looking for that also fit in my budget. Mike takes pride in his shop and being a true sound and audio specialist. Highly recommend coming here for all your audio needs! read more

My 2001 Porsche needed a new stereo, wow, I can honestly say I really didn't have a stereo before. Mike hooked me up with a Kenwood with cd, Bluetooth and removed the broken cup holders and added a compartment for storage. All under $500. Mike programmed my phone for me and showed me how to use it. I'm very happy! We did have to wait 3 days to get a return call for the price quote but after all the install, I can see why. They had homework to do before quoting. Also, when picking up the car, we did have to wait about 20 minutes, but then got the one on one personal service. We highly recommend this business! read more

Disappointing is an understatement. I visited Mike's twice to get an estimate and advice about an radio/speaker installation. I also shopped 2 other locations. Mike was not present. But, the installer staff appeared to be knowledgeable, trustworthy and honest. Mike's estimate was not the lowest. But, the installer staff gave me confidence. I made an appointment for the installation based on the estimate provided. On the day of the appointment, Mike appeared for the first time. He immediately tried to find excuses to up-charge, asking questions that had already been answered: -factory Bose upgrade - no, - radio controls on the steering wheel - no, - camera installations can be tricky - not really, - hidden amplifier - no, - insisting that there may be unknown unknowns - NO I know my car and they had the opportunity to inspect. But, I really do know my car. After this series of up-charge challenges, Mike upped the LABOR ONLY estimate by about $200. On the day of the installation! Another shop estimated that this job would take about 4 hours. Mike's new estimate would have resulted in a charge of about $200 per hour. Parts were provided by me. What a jerk! A glad handing, BS artist. Not really an artist. I am not a mushroom, to be kept in the dark and fed on manure. I pity the poor, talented and honest installers who work for a person with this level of dishonesty and abuse. I believe that there should be an ethics requirement to obtain a business license. Of course, presented with this experience, I walked away pleased that I had not trusted Mike with my car. I hope the best for his team. And I offer my sympathies. Go to Mike's and assume the risk. read more

Requested a fix for Apple car play. I was charged $75 dollars for a change in a setting which I had done before and did not address the issue I was asking to be fixed. read more

About 10 years ago I took my 1969 Fairlane in there to have some custom work done. Replaced the whole back seat with speakers and they built me a center console for my deck. Mike was very cool and negotiated with me on the price being I didn't have much money after having the body and paint done. System worked good for years. I don't live in the area anymore, but I'd give them my business anytime. read more

These guys are the real deal. Came in looking for a full sound system makeover for my truck. Dylan and Mike knew exactly the right questions to ask and were able to recommend me an absolute banger setup. Within 3 days I was booked and installed and out the door. Dylan and Brandon crushed my install and I couldn't be more pleased with my setup. If you're looking for a shop that knows what they're talking about and also knows how to put their money where their mouth is, these are your guys. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. Thanks fellas! read more

Never got back with me about my wiring harness. And was kind of surprised since he did seem like he would and filled out paperwork

I came here when I was a teenager to get a quote on an audio system modification for my car ~3 years ago. The older man who I spoke with was incredibly inappropriate and continuously touched my hand and arms. He also tried to talk to me about his religion (I believe mormon) and daughter while being uncomfortably touchy. As a teen girl at the time, I felt unsafe and uncomfortable. I do not recommend this place, particularly if you are a woman. read more

I spoke to Mike on the phone for quite a long time today, I have a complicated three way active set up that needs a tune, and a relatively rare audio processor controlling it. Mike doesn't specialize in the particular brand of processor, but offered to spend his own time helping me tune my system. That alone is going way above and beyond, but he also referred me to another audio shop that does specialize in the brand I have. To me- he demonstrated both a high level of competency and ethics on this call. I have been in the high end audio world for fifteen years and it is hard to find experts like Mike. Consider yourself lucky if he works on your system! read more

These guys at Mikes know there stuff and are very reasonably price. The staff and owners are very knowledgeable and respectful to your needs and always hand you an eye appealing well finished job. They don't up sell they advise and suggest what would work best. Low overhead and GREAT prices and workmanship is all I can say. Thanks Guys read more

This review is more than a year in the making! It's easy to write a review immediately after a single visit to any establishment, but what about weeks and months that follow? Our previous shop didn't survive the pandemic so when we needed work done the search began. I passed Mike's one day and debated, it wasn't a "chain" shop so I was a little hesitant. I eventually decided to give them a try after reading a few reviews, I was very happy with the work and the price. My husband is a little harder to impress. He eventually needed some work done/corrected after another shop lied about what they were installing and did not install properly. He took it to a shop in Roseville for a diagnosis, they were great but it was just too far. In the end this shop actually recommended Mike's (I didn't say "I told you so" ). Long story short, in the last year+ we have gone to Mike's at least 10 times. We weren't returning because the work was subpar, actually the opposite! We've taken four different cars to them for various work....replacement of malfunctioning alarm, sound system insulations, correcting subpar work from another establishment, etc. Bottom line we keep going back because they do great work!! Mike, Dylan, and Brandon are all awesome! They know what they're doing and you won't be disappointed. read more

My speakers and sound system were in bad shape. Mike hooked me up with a killer set up at a honest price. Dylan did a rocking job with the install he knocked it out the park! I felt very comfortable with the whole process and everyone was very helpful. I am stoked and would absolutely recommend Mike and his crew for all your sound needs! read more

I've had Mike and his crew do a couple of things for me. They recently installed an Alpine Sirius XM receiver in my daily driver. Our BMWs have had satellite radio for years, but I have been putting it off with the Taurus. To install the receiver I had to buy a big new faceplate kit for my dashboard. The kit was $80 and that seemed really high. Now that it is done I am a happy camper. Mike's did an excellent job and I will be going back again. Thanks, Mike. read more

Mike was able to hook me up with a very great alarm system for my car, they don't just do sound systems! (: You could tell everyone who worked there knew what they were doing. The job was done in a very clean way, and they were able to hide my alarm system in my car very well so it's not tacky and out in the open. I was informed my system also has lifetime warranty so I was really happy about that! Making an appointment was fast and simple and so was the drop off and pick up process! Just make sure you let it be known when you get there that you ARE THERE! All the employees are working on different things where they might not notice you walk up so try calling or telling one of the employees that you're there so that they can assist you. (: Thank you Mike and the rest of the crew! read more

I had a subwoofer installed by Mike and his team today. He had a couple other cars ahead of my truck when I came in but he said he's going to set a goal to have my woofer installed before closing and Mike is a man of his word. He installed my sub and included a bass knob flush with the whole dash without charge. He was professional and personable and the quality of the work was excellent. I'll be going back to Mike for all of my audio needs from now on! Thank you Mike! read more

THIS PLACE IS LEGIT!! I've have come here a few times. each time I have been taken care of!!

I'll definitely be back. read more

I have a very custom 62 Falcon that had a 15 year old Kenwood stereo which was top of the line 15 years ago but obsolete today. I found a great deal on a newer model Kenwood but because my car is a garage queen, I went with a legitimate mobile installer. After spending about 10 minutes, he opted out of the install out of fear of disturbing the custom dash and console. In hindsight I'm grateful. I called Mike who stated if he can't do it, it probably can't be done. I had a great experience at the shop. The guys were personable and knew their business. I dropped my car off and wandered old Elk Grove waiting for the call that would tell me the wiring problems that would prohibit the install or add to the quote. It never came. They wrestled with that stereo (which has bluetooth) for 3 hours and overcame every challenge. I was prepared to spend some bucks on this job but even after all the extra work, they charged me just $20 more than quoted. Install is clean, mic placement is excellent, and the stereo sounds amazing. I'm a loyal customer for life! read more
