Hi-Tech Car Audio

Expect nothing but the best from these guys!
I’ve been coming to them for years. Every year they have their midnight madness sale and every year I buy a new head unit. Cannot beat the price they offer on anything. There staff is so knowledgeable, not like your other electronics store that just up sells you on there product.
I recently got my head unit that I bought from them installed yesterday 12÷30÷15. Called around 1230 and they said they can do it and have it done by the end of the day. Dropped it off and came back around 5pm to pick up my car. Nice, clean and OEM look to the center counsel. They provide A1 service. No nicks no marks on my interior. You know these guys have been in business for a while and know there stuff.
I could go to another shop and have it done but why risk the chance of it. It working. There is a lot of people these days that are in it for the quick buck, but hi tech is not one of those companies. They take pride in what they do and their work speaks for itself.

Replacing factory speakers on my 2016 Ford explorer sport with focals here. These guys are pros. Their in-​depth auto audio knowledge is only surpassed by their excellent customer service.

I am very pleased with the customer service I received. The first go round wasn’t so pleasant because of miscommunication between the two of us. After expressing my issues to the manager of the store, he called me back and offered to correct the problem. This was big in my opinion because it shows they actually care about their work, and they honor their commitment to excellent customer service. When i returned i was greeted by the owner and the manager, and several members of their staff. They looked at the problem i was having with my box and fixed it with no problem. From that point i felt comfortable with letting them install my amps and subwoofers and i must say that i am very pleased with the outcome. I would go back to this business again.

Absolutely satisfied with my experience with Hi-​Tech.
They are not just professional, they are perfectionists.
Warren and the team are more than outstanding installers, they are really artists. He installed a custom set of led lights in the front of my truck, under the grille, designing the whole system from scratch and building it in aluminum to match the Ford F150 body. Pretty awesome. He also installed a supposedly «plug in» tailgate led bar which took way more time than budgeted, and he didn’t rest until it worked perfectly.
Azim, John and all the Hi Tech crew are not just great at their work, they are friendly and supportive, explaining clearly your options and going way out of their way to deliver a great customer experience.

I feel we got a great security system for what we need, but I do wish we had shopped around before purchasing here. While the price on the car security systems were decent, the installation prices were extremely high. Once we had dropped the vehicle off, my husband made a few phone calls and found other locations (Best Buy for one), with the cost of installation over $ 150.00 less. Money is a huge deal to us, as I am sure it is to most people. However, if it were not for the cost of the installation, I would be giving 5 stars. The service was awesome, great information provided and the vehicle was completed as promised.

Go here for your car electronics experience. No joke. These guys are straight up professional and are celebrating 30 years in the business. From stereo to stereo systems; from alarms to DVD’s to monitors and all points in between.
I went in for a simple Bluetooth hands free microphone fix. Not only did they fix it lickity split, but they put the mic in a better place. These guys know their stuff.
Looking through their inventory, the pricing is fair and nothing to cry home about but the customer service was above and beyond.
And their work is irreproachable. They were proud to show me how they integrate systems into new cars and I can tell you I would never have believed it wasn’t part of the original car.
They even have a Harley motorcycle in the showroom that’s decked out in stereo equipment you can only see to believe.
You get what you pay for with these guys and I didn’t feel hustled or hassled. Just a helpful bunch that knows their stuff.
I’ll go back. No doubt.

I wanted a backup camera for my Honda accord (too old a model to have it included originally) and went to Hi-​Tech since they have good reviews on Unilocal including a review of installing a backup camera previously. I was helped by one of their upper managers to order both camera and review mirror which included the monitor for the camera. Unfortunately, the mirror ordered was actually not a fit for my older Honda so they installed an on-​the-​shelf mirror/​monitor which was available to fit. While good, the display was not as sharp as I desired. I asked Jim (the manager) to replace it with a better one I found on the internet. No resistance to replace and now I have an excellent backup system. Hi-​Tech emphasizes customer satisfaction and I, for one, could not be happier or hesitate to fully recommend Hi-​Tech.

Very knowledgable staff. I wasn’t sure if I was going to use them at first because I went in with a classic vehicle. They recognized the rareness of the vehicle and were very professional and clean. They even called me during installation to let me know my shifter was a little use (which it was when I brought it in) but since the car was so clean and like new they just wanted to point out it wasn’t their doing. I had a viper alarm installed with trunk pinch and a new stereo with bluetooth audio and rear camera installed. If I can talk a car show vintage vehicle to them, then you can trust them with your car.

Bought a car stereo as a birthday present and they were all very helpful from the start. Couldnt get it installed right away as it wasn’t going into my car and coordinating schedules to bring the intended car in to them would spoil the surprise. After i gave the stereo as a gift i had a sudden trip out of town come up and only had a weekend to get the stereo put in the car so my girlfriend could use it while I was away. Although the guys at hi tech had already told me their schedule was full those days, they made the time to do it anyway. I appreciate the extra effort and would recommend them to anyone.

these guys are good ! if you are reading this and you want to get a good audio system done make sure you get FaceTime with the guy who will install it so you express your serious concerns like I wanted my car kept looking stock (he wanted to expose sub woofer button), if things are going to be cut make sure you ask them where and how, they got lucky I drive a cheap car am not so much in love with if it was the car I should be driving and I had looked under my seat to find all the cuts to accommodate the wiring and amplifier it would have broken my heart. the guys there seem to be too busy, really nice guys but my guess is they get overwhelmed with so much to do so make sure you give them all your info without making assumptions lol
The audio sounds amazing, I have Bose audio earpieces that I have loved for so long till after I got my car with the audio system these guys put in, I actually miss the sound of my car when am watching tv in my room
EDIT so about 2 months ago my car battery died ! they had to have known the sound system was going to be killing my battery slowly i called them about it talked to the owner who suggested i bring it in.
ealier in the months i had gone in to look at possibility of getting a car play /​android play system so i casually mention that my speakers are already going bad he proceeded to look up my account then he asked «why did you buy cheap speakers» my system cost me 1200 $ lol
moral of the story dont be a sucker like me just cause people look like they are good folks it doesnt mean they are. car is now sold hoping to get a car that comes with a premium factory sound system

Edit:
Azim personally came up and talked to me directly to see what my problems were and how he could handle them. It felt weird having the owner himself give you a rundown of how things worked, the type of customer service you should expect and asking what he could do to improve my experience there. Not weird in a negative way, but weird as in it’s not very common that you see a store take the time out to do that.
I came here to have a radio put in my 280z and the Hi-​Tech crew went above and beyond to get my stereo installed. My car is a 1978 so they were some technical difficulties but they were able to take care of them swiftly and professionally. I even received a courtesy call a few days later to see how the system was working and if there we any problems.
I highly recommend anyone looking to get a stereo to make an appointment! Thanks again to Jim and Azim I appreciate you guys helping me out.

These guys are great if you want some beat in your trunk. I did my car there and I’m really happy with their service. Really nice and friendly people. I gave it 5 stars but imma double up to 10. Thanks hi tec audio and a special thanks to Josue Peralta with the installation and Aldaberto Torres for helping me pick out the sickest system JL’s w7

I have been going here for years, and they are the best at what they do. All of the awards and recognition is well deserved. Very professional and courteous place of business and I will be coming here for many years to come.

Hands down. great customer service… fast installatiom… extremely knowledgeable reps. Great prices. I will definitely be back.

Just a few days after posting my last review, I was contacted by the owner of the business. To his credit, he did want to reach out and try to make this right, and I believe he was sincere. My experience was certainly not the best this go-​round, but with the abundance of good reviews and the responsiveness of the owner, maybe my experience was an anomaly.

Best place to get beat installed and outstanding customer service, I would recommend this this to everyone! The manager here (forgot his name) has been very friendly for the entire process. I had to come back due to a very minor issues which was resolved asap, couldn’t ask for more.

Well this is the second time I’ve driven away from this place frustrated and dissatisfied, the first time was about a year ago, I brought in my 2005 jetta to get a head unit installed and it kept shutting off, I brought it in a couple times and it kept happening, I had spent almost $ 700 to get this head unit hooked up so I could get my kicker 15″ booming, but they couldn’t figure it out, I ended up putting the stock unit back in myself because they couldn’t do it for me until almost a week later. Gave me the money back for the parts but not for almost $ 400 in there overpriced labor!
What a waste of time and money, and they made me feel like I was bothering them.
More recently I wanted to add some bass to my BMW 2008 328i with a line level booster a 380 rms amp and jl 10w3, well it ended not sounding good because the line level signal is crossed over from the factory system, but they couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t play loud and instead told me it was because my «BMW trunk was more sealed then other cars», and sent me on my way completely dissatisfied again, so there was another wasted $ 400, so I went to Mobile Music in Daly City and they put in a head unit with free installation and with the clean signal my trunk hits loud and clean!
Hi Teck sells some nice products and does pretty clean install work but doesn’t go out of there way to make sure your happy with how it sounds, disappointing and very frustrating with there overpriced labor fees and there «it’s not our fault your not happy attitude». I’ll never let them install anything for me again.

Two words «AMAZING and PROFESSIONAL»
I am VERY picky when it comes to my cars, and this job was no exception. I wanted to have speakers upgraded in a newly acquired 1987 low-​mileage all original vintage import, and was adamant about maintaining it’s bone-​stock configuration. Warren (the head installer) was able to integrate new speakers behind the existing speaker grills, use the original blaupunkt radio, velcro a small amplifier underneath the passenger seat, and add bluetooth connectivity via FM with NO HOLES or cuts of ANY KIND.
Clean work, with no messes left behind. Very reasonable prices with tons of options.
I was able to spend some time with the owners and lead salesman. It is refreshing to know that old-​school family owned businesses like this still exist that take pride in what they do.

Installed a car alarm system plus power locks. The person answering my call was very courteous and helpful. I’m not very mobile so I asked for help in commuting back and forth. On the appointment day, they actually gave me a ride back home and on the day I picked up my car, they drove to pick me up! I can’t think of any service better than that. The work on my car was clean and very satisfactory. These guys are just great; everything everybody else is saying about them is TRUE!

Hey The guys at Hi-​tech audio did a great job ! All the recommendations were right on the money !
In and out fast clean service thanks to Fernando and all the Hi-​tech staff !
If you need stereo or alarm service, I highly recommend Hi-​tech
