A&E Autosound

Quick, friendly, and good service on a cheap stereo that I’m happy with. I compared prices and was happy with the one I got here. I’d recommend this place.

Be warned
I was looking at replacing the stock speakers I had in my 1998 Tacoma just for better sound quality. I also wanted to have the Bluetooth capability being that I work on the road very often and would rather not run the risk of getting pulled over for being on the phone. This was the very first place I went to for a quote on 4 new 6.5″ speakers, and a new stereo as well (I wanted to use Pioneer everything). I was originally quoted $ 450 and when I said I was going to shop around they tried to sell it to me for $ 382. I still got 3 other quotes and the lowest one I felt really confident with was $ 350. The next day I went back to A&E and told them that I got that quote and would come here first to give them the option to match their local competitor (It gave them my business, and saved me 10 mins of driving…). After he had agreed to $ 350 out the door I had them install everything in my truck which was supposed to take two hours. Five hours later I get a call that my truck was ready, so I go to pick it up. When I got there he came up with some BS of how he had to charge me tax which totaled the price at $ 378 AND they gave me all of the boxes to the components that they installed in my truck and I noticed they installed REFURBISHED SPEAKERS… Not that the sound quality is bad, but I didn’t pay for that.
By that point it was already too late and it was my fault for trusting a shady ran business like this place. I will not recommend anyone coming to this establishment for anything in the future. This is a slimy business.

wow… They have some deals here but be very very careful that their deals may be problematic…
I got a stereo here for what I took to be a good deal. I would like to think that it was. However, apparently they didnt do the install quite right as the installer was not one of their better installers and it wasnt until a few weeks later, multiple calls, and a few trips back that the problem was solved.
However, there was not an additional charge. I was on the verge of demanding a refund when they brought over their top installer to check it out one last time. As soon as he saw the stereo wiring, he fixed the problem in about 1 minute. An important wire wasnt connected. I had been there several times and consequently the problem was undetected for way to long. =\
So they have decent prices and actually better than average customer service. But the installs are not always that great unfortunately. So beware and shop with care.

So this location has now been taken over by Z Autosound, but they still continue to have A and E auto sounds name attached to the place. Jaime and the old staff are gone. I came back to add an amp and a sub to my car and got gouged on the price. They quoted me $ 500 for an Alpine amp which I price checked online and goes for about $ 129 to $ 169, and a 10 inch Alpine sub which I price checked online for about $ 96. When I returned to their store and asked them to explain why they wanted to charge me $ 500 for what I found available anyplace else for around $ 270 they had no answer and told me they would check their pricing catalogs, and never could give me an answer. When I asked them flat out how much do you sell this amp for, they would never answer me. The place is run by owners of middle eastern descent (not trying to be racist here, I’m just sayin’), and they sit there speaking in Farsi to each other right in front of you, and you and your transaction is obviously the topic of conversation. They are very untrustworthy. Be very careful of these people and check their prices before buying…

This place sucks and will mess your car up they don’t know what they are doing ! I highly recommend another place if you can find one. The staff are very rude. What a nightmare they sold me a crapy stereo and then messed up my dash board and then the stereo wouldn’t work and, then told me oh well go f– off unbelievable !! One star is way to many stars for this place worst experience of my life

I went in to get my rear speakers fixed, I was given a great price and they took the car in and took care of them right away. While they were working on the car I asked Jaime about options for replacing my factory audio system, he gave lots of information and pricing, then suggested I take my time to think about it first — I can’t say how enough about the low pressure, friendly manner in which he runs his business!
I was so happy with the service I got fixing my speakers I decided to go back and get my whole system replaced. I was a little worried as the online forums all documented how hard it it to work on the Volvo XC90 radio, however Jaime went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. When I found a few issues later on (system error codes and some minor electrical problems) I went back and they took care of everything without hesitation. I now have a great sounding stereo, with bluetooth, HD radio, both USB and AUX in, which are all features missing in the factory installation and all at a remarkably low price for such good quality workmanship.
If you are considering any work on your vehicle audio consider A&E Autosound first, I can honestly say that they are the best I have come across and excel when it comes to customer service!!! I will certainly be recommending them to all my friends, which I think is the best referral you can earn.

I purchased a head unit and sub about a week ago, the process was smooth, quick and done professionally. I went with a 12 inch audiobahn sub which hits real hit especially for the price. I recommend this location for anybody looking to upgrade their system.

great quality on installation Jaime really took care of my car, and really price competive

Needed a couple of speakers replaced and wanted a low/​no impact kinda group to take it over. After quick consultation explaining what I needed and wanted they took over and got me exactly what I needed installed quickly with no hidden charges. Fantastic group. Quality work (it’s been a month, no issues) and a good price.

Got speakers installed here on my second visit, nice quality, quoted me 100 $ less than another auto shop, was very please with the speakers and speed of installation. Got a year warranty, but with a 20% discount it ended up being less than the original quote. Overall I’m extremely happy with this place

I came in to get some cables to connect my iPhone to my old head unit. But Sam made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. He will work with you on pricing and financing. So I made the plunge on the new pioneer NEX units that will be compatible with apple’s car play to boot. I am happy I did it is a beautiful system that sounds great!
I was working on a time constraint and got a quick install from Danny an excellent stereo installer. Kudos all around.

Had a stereo installed here. It is a 2010 Subaru Impreza. After installation my car would not start. The Subaru dealer had to replace the computer in my car. $ 5000.00 to fix. They did go to the dealer and remove the head unit. After the repair I went to hook the stereo back up and once again my car would not start. Went to a different stereo shop and they found out that it was wired wrong and re wired the harness and the car started right up. They would not refund me any money and I had to pay for all the repairs myself. Would not go back to this shop for anything. I have since had the stereo I purchased here removed and had a new unit installed by professionals that back up their work.

I was very satisfied with my experience at A&E. They new their products and did not try and over sell me. Install went smooth and on time ! I would recommend this place to anyone I know! Great job guys, keep it up.

Warning! Don’t even both going their

I came in looking to put a new stereo head unit in my Dad’s truck and they immediately gave me some options I selected one of there Sony’s and I came back the next day to have it installed. Turns out they couldnt get the sony head unit in time so they gave me the next step up which were the alpines for the same price and install was less then an hour. The alpine stereo is amazing and my dad loves it. The following day I also decided to get some new front speakers so they hooked me up with some JBL’s and gave me a discount on that too! Install was less then 30 minutes!
Overall great customer service, talk to sam and he will hook you up with all your audio needs.

I spent over a grand on a new Pioneer stereo for my Toyota Tacoma. The installation was terrible. The whole time I kinda got the feeling that they didn’t take pride in their work and when I picked up my truck and saw what they had done, my suspicions were confirmed. My new stereo was installed crooked at an angle. It took them so long to do the install that I just pointed it out to them and accepted the work, and fixed it myself. When I opened up the dash and pulled the head unit out to fix the alignment I noticed that they used electrical tape on wire connections, left wires cut and bare. I will never go there again.
Once again this place is proof positive that you get what you pay for and there are few good deals out there anymore at small shops.
