The staff you have are excellent, they really work to discover what is necessary. You then suggested an installation company who naturally backed up the service. It was great service! Thank you

Good advice with a very unexpected follow up call to ask if the unit was OK and did I have any setup questions. This is on top of a price without the physical shop premium.

Great AV shop

1. Non-pushy sales person/expert. Didn't try to get me to buy the "next model up".
2. Did not have the AV receiver in store but ordered and arrived in 2 days.
3. Accepted Blue light card.
4. Nice, clean environment (Guildford)

I used them to buy a television

I used them to buy a television. They were very knowledgeable and helpful, and slightly cheaper than elsewhere. I had looked at some models online and found the specifications vague, but a quick phone call and all was quickly solved. The third party installer that they sent was very good and not expensive.

Great service from the Guildford team

Great service from the team at Guildford.

Thank you very much, to (especially) Tayla and her team for the great customer service they have provided, they surpassed my expectations.

This is what makes a great business, no drama, no dragging of their feet, just corrected the issue, in a very timely, and professional manner.

This is why I buy tech from people who look after their customer base.

I sent an email to Richer Sounds in Guildford asking a question about turntables that would work with my system as it was pretty old. Franklin communicated with me straight away about budget and choices with great and honest advice. I bought the turntable that day. A very happy customer.

Great service, price, warranty.

I did some research online to choose a new larger, higher resolution TV. I was pointed towards Richer Sounds on the basis of price, warranty period and service. I called the shop to check availability of a demo of the LG-G5 product and spoke with Franklin who was immediately helpful and polite. This continued on my visit to the store to check out the LG and place the order. He gave me a great demo, advice on offers and a healthy discount in the face of an offer via my Son. The TV arrived as suggested and Franklin helped me load the car. I’ve got the TV all installed and working and we’re delighted with the picture. I’m just waiting now to register for the LG Cashback.

Great people but let down by Sonos Product

Great people but let down by your Sonos products. Sonos networking issues just unacceptable if able customers and Richer Sounds staff cant solve them. I bought and returned a Sonos 5 speaker and wasted endless hours of my and your staff's time due to Sonos 5's networking issues

Had a problem setting up the new DAC

Had a problem setting up the new DAC, booked a demo room and they sorted out the set-up. I was having a senior moment when it came to connecting the cd player, but it all works beautifully now.
Speedily resolved - very helpful.

Went to store to ask questions about one product which seemed OK but discussed further and made decision to buy a more expensive product
Unfortunately RS’s can’t provide a small simple connection cable to link new product to a Sonos speaker but the manager kindly located another site where I could order online
Paid a little extra for next day delivery and all parcels arrived on time in given time slot … unfortunately product was missing a small connection piece and RS’s came up with a creative solution so after buying several products before from them it was a good decision as helpful and knowledgeable
Overall a 5* service with an extended warranty thrown in
Thanks

All good

I bought some Cambridge Audio headphones from Richer Sounds. A week or so later the price dropped,mso I contacted them and they refunded the difference. I’ve always found these people to be very good.
