Great service from the staff

Great service from the staff of the Richer Sounds shop in Cardiff. We were looking for a new larger TV, and we received excellent advice, and so made the right choice for us. The only minor inconvenience was related to the brackets, in that one bracket was not placed on the delivery order, and it turned out that it was the incorrect one in any event. However, these are v small gripes, and the staff at the shop were excellent. Informed, personable and hugely helpful.

Thanks for leaving such a thoughtful review. I’m delighted to hear that the team in our Cardiff store were able to give you such clear advice and help you choose the right TV for your needs.

I’m sorry for the minor inconvenience with the brackets not being quite right initially. While it’s good to hear this was only a small gripe overall, I will make sure it is followed up with the branch so that they can learn from their mistake.

If there’s ever anything we can help with in future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch via the address below...

Bought a Targa Harmony 1000CD from the…

Bought a Targa Harmony 1000CD from the Cardiff store on the 9th March 2026. Submitted a review for that sale; not very complimentary I'm afraid. Anyway the CD player started giving problem so I rang the store (Cardiff) and explained the problem. I was asked to bring the Targa to the store if it was convenient for me to do so. I did that and spoke to Mike who offered a full refund or exchange for new one. I opted for a refund which was duly given. My wife spotted a Targa 1000CD on a shelf and asked if that was the one we had heard demonstrated a few weeks ago. Yes it was. Mike offered a reduced price on this unit which we accepted and took it home. Very happy now. Thanks Mike, you've restored my faith in Richer Sounds.

Fabulous service from richer sounds…

Fabulous service from richer sounds with the purchase of some replacement speakers as my old B&W 600s had been attacked by the dog and we’re past repair unfortunately but replacing them with a pair of the 700s seemed logical to me as I like their sound. Easy job ordering online and came within two days in fab condition and no problems at all. The price was amazing and I have no complaints at all. Great job guys.

New Optoma projector and great service

I spoke with Aaron from Cardiff branch and have emailed this separately.
Thank you for taking time to discuss my projector replacement last Thursday 5th March. It was a tough decision to replace our old Optoma projector, establishing I required, price and specifications. Finally deciding on Optoma UHZ35, I'm so pleased with this product.

The picture is awesome and will hopefully provide many happy hours of viewing entertainment.

Expert advice and great quality products

I recently bought a new turntable from Richer Sounds in Cardiff (Pro-Ject Debut E Carbon).
The staff were very knowledgeable, and first provided advice on how to get the best sound from my current deck. When I returned to buy a new turntable, they helpfully talked through a few different options and clearly explained the difference between them.
I’m really happy with the new record player. The sound is great and I’m enjoying playing some old vinyl again.

For my latest purchase I dealt with Mike at the Cardiff store. He was friendly, knowledgeable, happy to helpand made sure I ended up with the product I was after at a price I was happy with.

I've used Richer Sounds (in-store and online) for over 20 years and I know I will get top advice and support without pressure selling or unnecessary extras. I always come away feeling like I've got the product that is right for me and at a good price.
