They are now reopened in a new location!!! 1334 Young Street in the plaza with the parking lot across the street from the interstate medical building on the young street side! Kent and the crew are awesome and got me fixed up in no time! Mahalo!!! read more

I just imported an Acty van from Japan and was looking for a solid alarm system. I stopped by Security & Sound Systems shortly after they opened, and Kent greeted me right as I parked. I told him what I needed, and we walked over to my van to take a look. I have a newer 3rd-gen Acty--maybe one of the first on the island--and Kent took his time inspecting the interior to understand how the locks and windows worked. He was incredibly thorough, checking every door and window carefully. I was a little concerned about drilling into the van or interior panels, but he explained how their alarm systems are installed and even brought out some parts to show me. That helped me decide where things could be mounted to keep everything as clean and minimal as possible. I also mentioned that when I first got the van, all the doors used to lock/unlock with the key, but they randomly stopped working. He said he could take a look at that too. Kent walked me through all the different alarm options and recommended the best one for my specific setup, especially considering the van is over 25 years old. I wanted something high-quality, and he got me set up with a 2-way alarm system and the mobile app add-on with GPS tracking. Someone had missed their appointment that morning, and he was able to get me in the same day! Not only did they install the alarm, but they also fixed my power door locks--now I can lock and unlock all my doors (including the trunk) with the remote. The install was super clean: no holes, no visible wires. 10 out of 10--highly recommend. Aside from his professional and knowledgeable work, Kent is just a genuinely nice guy and super easy to talk to. Thank you so much--I'm beyond happy with my alarm! read more

This review is long overdue, and I must recognize this wonderful business that does solid work on security systems for vehicles. I have a vintage rod, as I've been roddin' since my dayz out of high school. Nothing fancy, and definitely nothing worth stealing, yet there is always one knucklehead out there that wants to mess with you, & your ride! What to do? Security & Sounds Systems my friends! Security & Sound Systems has been in business for a very long time, and I have used them numerous times to do work on my Camaros, Mustangs, and family vehicles. The products that they provide, as well as the work they do on security systems is impeccable! If you want to help deter a knucklehead from messing with your car, I would highly recommend you check out Security & Sound Systems to see what they have to offer here that would meet your security needs. Bottom line is anything can be stolen, but you still buy security systems like this to slow up knuckleheads that don't respect other peoples property! Lol! read more

I posted this but it posted from an account on Yelp I don't use (weird). I wanted it to post from where I normally leave reviews and my actual account: am tardy on this review... yet I have to say it is WELL DESERVED.  The owner and his awesome staff put my stereo into my FJ years ago and they were able to connect it to a custom after-market back-up camera the first owner of my car had installed into the rear bumper. Well, fast forward to April 2023 when I got rear-ended in Waikiki by a dumdum as I sat at a red light, as he was going 25 mph.  Uninsured jerk tore up my rear bumper and broke the custom rear bumper back-up camera. I went to see the team at Security and Sound Systems after Allstate shortly after I got the car fixed by my maintenance folks.  Kent and his team were able to install an awesome after market camera onto my spare tire rim that has been working BETTER than the previous camera. For any type of after-market stereo and camera stuff we need for vehicles, we will ONLY go to Security and Sound Systems on South Beretania in Honolulu, Hawaii.  Thanks, team! read more

My daughter's car had issues with Siri working in her Carplay. Kent was quick to diagnose the issue, had good options to fix it, and had the job finished quickly thereafter. These folks know their stuff and are there to help you, not rip you off. Thanks so much for your professionalism and quality install! If you have any car stereo needs, go see these folks. They will do you right! read more

Kent was extremely helpful in guiding me to the best stereo system for my new Jeep. I would highly recommend Kent and Security Sound Systems. read more

Great installation but kinda slow on sales even though they got two people in the office.

Actually went to these guys over a decade ago for a double-din (remember those?) touchscreen setup two trucks ago. Needed dash cams for my wife's car and happy to find out these guys are still around, which says something in and of itself. They make great choices in tech brands/models, got me in for the install within a day, and were done ahead of schedule. read more

Almost got ran off the road so decided to get a dash cam. My boy told me to check out Kent at security & sound and they didn't disappoint. Kent also helped me pick out the perfect deck for my car too since it was a very old one and kinda broken lol. Accurate quote and threw in a few extra touches to make the thing look stock. They have a sign business to so they can fabricate stuff to blend into your cars look. They slid me in right away and it was done in a fast and neat fashion. Jarred and Cary are veteran installers so you can be assured it will be quality. Kiana went over the dash cam app and functions with me. I can't say much more cause I'm super happy with their work. Check them out for sure. read more

Kent was professional and such a knowledgeable person. He trouble shot my faceplate within no time. All employees were hard workers and respectful. read more

Another job in the books. Kent and his crew from Security and Sound did another work van for me. This time, they installed a general alarm with hood sensors, glass sensors, tilt, and hood sensors. Additionally, they installed my power inverter for me and also a back up camera so I don't accidentally reverse over someone. They integrated my new car stereo with the backup camera. Perfect fit and function! Thanks guys! read more

If you have issues with any sensors in your car, I highly suggest visiting Security & Sound Systems to fix them. My car's rear backup sensor had snapped off from the car ceiling. I thought it'd be a complicated process to find and request a new sensor, but Security & Sound Systems had the issue resolved within minutes of arrival! The staff was very kind and their services were not only quick, but of quality. You are awesome Kent!! Thank you so much for the repairs. read more

I had a 2020 4Runner Kent (owner and the workers) .they are very professional and polite.they were able to squeeze me in for my alarm not working properly. They fixed it in a short period of time and life time warranty for my alarm was still valid. Thank you and I will definitely be back again. read more

I came to get an alarm system and remote start for my old 1997 Honda Prelude. Kent was super helpful and was very open and honest about the pricing. I brought my car in on multiple days and after some trouble shooting they got the job done. I'm super happy with my new alarm and the remote start is awesome. Thank you Jarrett and thank you Kent! read more

Exceptional service. Nice friendly people. Ana and Kent (I think he's the owner) are awesome. Showroom is a little office-space-in-the-middle-of -relocating looking but no worries.. Informative and helpful without sounding like they are trying to make as much money off of you as possible. Upgraded my 2014 Corolla radio with an Alpine system. They even suggested changing my interior and trunk lights to LEDs for a much brighter interior light that I didn't know I was missing out on. Would highly recommend them. read more

Kent and his team are simply the best in the biz. If you're looking for quality work and proven results, hands down, this is the place.

I've been a customer of Security & Sound Systems since my first college car. That was a long, long time ago. And Kent has been there the whole time, crouched behind the counter of an unassuming space under a walk-up apartment building. I once spent more on speaker upgrades than I did on the car that I put them in. When Apple Car Play became a thing, I went to Kent to put a basic Pioneer aftermarket head unit in my 2013 Mazda. As a Mililani to town daily commuter, it was probably the best investment I made in my car. So when I got a 2017 Honda, he set me up with a Wireless CarPlay unit from Kenwood. I asked for the most basic model, but since he only had the one-step-up in stock, he put that in for the same price. The install techs, I'm sure, are great people, but it's Kent's low-key style, local vibe, and knowledge of car tech that makes the difference. When I get my next car in 10 years, I'd like to think Kent and Security & Sound Systems will still be there. read more

Kent and Anya helped us with what we should get and Cameron did our install. Excellent customer service and a quality install! I highly recommend Security & Sound Systems! read more

Kent and his amazing staff hooked up my daughter's car with an alarm, kenwood apple play stereo and a reverse camera! Work was clean and outstanding! I will definitely bring my cars in for upgrades whenever possible. I called a lot of places and emailed as well. They were the only one to take time out of their busy work schedule to answer my questions and explain options and pricing! They have been around for 33 years or so and I can see why! So if you want it done right give Kent a call and you will be glad you did! Mahalo Kent and Team! Aloha nō a 'O Iesus pū! Kani'ala read more

I dropped my husband vehicle off first thing in the morning to get sounds put in and the lady in the office kindly greeted me. The technician had a couple questions that I couldn't answer, so they were very patient with me while I had to get ahold of my husband over the phone. They anticipated it would take all day to install, so they called me a complimentary Uber ride home. I had a nice chat with them while I waited for my ride. My husband loves his new sounds and they did exactly what he asked for. Super friendly customer service! I highly recommend! read more

Go see Kent at Security and Sound System. They have quality products and the staff has been in the business for years. They support all the equipment they install even years after they installed it. I know because my stereo and alarm is over 15 years old! read more

I bought a used Toyota Avalon and wasn't satisfied with the OEM system. Kent and Security & Sound Systems hooked me up. I appreciate music more when the sound quality is better and it makes sitting in traffic a little more tolerable. I returned to pick up my car a little too early. Perfect, Los Chapparos is right across the street! The long drive home was worthwhile. I have a great system I'm happy with and I had some great mexican food. I hope Kent will still be in business whenever I buy another vehicle. read more

I brought in my '19 Ford Ranger to have LED lights installed under the grill with a flush mount on/off switch near shifter, and a front/rear security camera mounted and hard wired to power supply. Got good price. Made appointment. Came in. Everything done exactly how I hoped, on time, and perfect. Highly recommend these guys. They can do anything. read more

I am extremely satisfied with the installation. From the representative at the front desk to the installers, all made the appointment great! Jah bless!! read more

Kent was great on explaining everything to me on what my options were on getting an alarm on my Tacoma. The girls were top notch, the installer was kind and professional, I am glad I came here. I highly recommend them if you need an alarm installed, I enjoyed the experience. read more

Kent and his gang came through again! They made a beautiful custom box for my 2-16" Rockford subs, made a custom in closure for my spare battery and ran all my wiring flawlessly. There work never seems to amaze me. Go check them out for all your car audio needs. They also do some cool custom wood and metal work! read more

Security & Sound Systems ROCK!!! I've been here a few times and will continue to be a repeat customer. I can't say enough wonderful things about Kent, Anya and all the guys at SSS! I've purchased speakers, amp and a subwoofer from them over the last few months and I couldn't be happier. They offer top of the line products and equipment with FLAWLESS installation. They will take the time to chat with you about what the best option is for your car, your wallet, your wants & needs with ZERO pressure tactics to buy or offer something you don't need. They are straight up, honest and on the level! They are also upfront about the cost of everything with no hidden fees or add-ons. Installation is fast and immaculate. They will even offer and pay for a car service to get where you need to after you drop your car off. I could go on and on and on. Bottom line...I will not go anywhere else. So if you want top of the line products, installation, customer service and aloha, look no further. Thanks Kent & Anya!!! You're the best!!! read more

I had an excellent experience at Security & Sound Systems! I can not say enough good things about shop owner Kent Izuka. He listened to my concerns, paid attention to detail, kept in communication with me and got the job done right the first first time in a timely manner. I felt as if he treated me like I was his best customer! Kent is the epitome of professionalism and dedication to his field! I highly recommend Kent and Security & Sound Systems as your first choice for you car audio and security needs. There is no other shop on island to get your installation done right than Security & Sound Systems. Big Mahalo to Kent and his installers! read more

SSS installed a powered sub in a brand new Honda Passport. Kent the owner was accommodating to scheduling times and very upfront with pricing. He told me what the price would be at the max and charged me less. He could've easily lied and said they did it and charged me. Would def go again, highly recommended read more

Just based on quoting and service (we haven't bought a system yet): A shout-out goes to Kent Izuka for great customer service! We were looking to upgrade our car stereo with Android Auto / CarPlay and Kent not only responded to quote requests on Yelp quickly, he was a delight to interact with in-store, as he showed a variety of systems (with your own phone connected to demo systems), demonstrated the features, and make thoughtful recommendations based on what we're looking for. We haven't bought a system yet (since we're looking at the more expensive Alpine option with a bigger screen - we're saving money!!), but Kent is definitely the guy we would like to work with in the future when we are able! The business appears to be split in two parts, separated by a moped store - with the storefront on one side and the installation area on the other. Parking may appear tricky, but it's plentiful and located in the private lot that also appears to be reserved for the apartments above. read more

Security and Sound has been and remain to be one of the most reputable and top notch audio, visual, and security retailers and installers on the island, since I can remember. I've had personal experience with them ever since 1998, and it has always been nothing but friendly, knowledgeable and Personable experience every single time. If you want a " you get this special price today, but price change tomorrow" kind of deals and shops, this isn't the place for you. If you want high end, higher quality stuff, that comes with knowledge and experience with the products they sell, and install, this is the place for you. I HIGHLY recommend them! read more

Went in for truck alarm.. they were so honest and didn't try to up-sale anything. Even talked me out of products I didn't actually need! They helped get everything g set up on my phone and went over all the details of the system with me. We will be back for all of our security and sound needs for our vehicles! read more

2nd time coming here. Hands down the BEST security & sound system company on island!!! Top quality products and super clean installation. Kent & his guys was nothing but professional. They got something for everyone. Go check them out! read more

Lately there are way to many break ins and this week, someone punctured my gas tank. I then realized i need an alarm system to protect my truck and myself. I searched for the best alarm system companies on and yelp and that's when I found "Security & Sound Systems"! My husband is away on a special mission so I had to get the alarm myself. Kent the owner was awesome, fabulous and amazing and he treated me like a family. Kent explained to me all the different types of alarms and what I needed. He explained to me in a way that I'd would understand it since I don't know anything about alarm system. After I chose an alarm, Kent told me my truck should be done at 4:30, he also offered to call an Uber ride to take me home while they install my alarm system. Next time you need an alarm system, give Kent a call. This place is awesome!! read more

Been coming here for past 30+ years to have all different kinds of security systems put into my new, leased, and used cars. I keep coming back, because I know I can trust Kent and his team to do the job right the first time. No matter if I purchase one of their security systems, or bring in one of my own preference, I feel comfortable knowing he can do it and be honest about any issues that I need to consider beforehand. read more

I am rideshare driver that unfortunately had my radio media center "die" on me. My rear camera was hooked up to the media player so it was critical that replacing the unit was necessary. I went to Security Sound because they had installed a rear reverse sensor in my wife's car about a year ago and my experience was excellent. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about what they had in stock. Prices were much less than I was expecting. I set my appointment and they completed the work as expected. They even sat with me to explain the features of my new media player. I'm back on the road feeling so much safer and comfortable with the new media player. Thank you Security Sound. You guys are the best! read more

I would like to thank Kent and his team for installing an amp and subwoofer. The sound is great and I did not have to change my speakers in my 2023 Kia soul. I definitely recommend these guys if you're in the market for a sound system. Mahalo Mahalo read more

Kent and ALL the staff at Security & Sound Systems were very helpful, knowledgeable, and listened to what my needs were. Then they recommended the best products not for profit but to make sure what I needed was installed. Installation is second to none. I cannot express every detail they did to help the customer experience enjoyable from beginning to end. All my sound and security equipment will be done with this company. Mahalo! read more
