Great buying experience with Crutchfield. Arrived on time. The smart dimmer switch is a great addition to a Brilliant Smart home system.

Excellent Service
December 6, 2020

My husband and I ordered an 65" LG OLED CX TV from Crutchfield. They were the only store around with the exact TV we wanted, yet their price was competitive. The phone call ordering process was easy, the telephone rep professional, courteous and helpful. We did have a problem scheduling our delivery from UPS Freight on the day promised, but I called Crutchfield and Jamie resolved it quickly. She was understanding on the phone and went out of her way to get the TV delivered promptly. I appreciate her service and that of AnneMarie who I checked in with the next day. Both Jamie and AnneMarie were courteous, professional and helpful. Thank you all -- I love my new TV!

Got these on a Black Friday deal. Just put them in a couple weekends after, and I love the sound these things produce. The only and I mean only pain in the butt was the holes didn't line up just right so I had to widen a couple out with a file. Wasn't bad though! Crutchfield makes this too easy.

I ordered Sony headphones from Crutchfield. They offered a great price not only for the headphones, but also for the 2 year warranty. Along with the purchase they offered 24-7 support. The headphones arrived the day after I ordered them. Excellent experience!

Fantastic on Maui
December 5, 2020

The contact person Eric was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Unbelievably the TV arrived in 3 days from the east coast to Hawaii! Everything was there and with the help of my technologically experienced nephew, we had it all set up in@ 90 minutes. I couldn't be happier with the TV, sound bar, sub-woofer and all in 1 box. Haven't had to use tech support yet but plan to soon to better understand how the wand works. Anyway a wonderful experience and product!

Subwoofer
December 5, 2020

Product was delivered fast and I love the speaker. The home entertainment system now sounds great.
The other subwoofers I looked at to fit in this small space were rated low. This Bowers and Wilkins is fabulous

I ordered, it came within a couple of days. Way easier than going to town and finding a place to park, fight the crowds.
I light to shop online and Crutchfeilds has everything online, but the hassle. People to ask my questions, great service, and very efficient.

I am an experience tradesman but when it comes to car audio I don't have much expertise. The PDF guide was accurate and on the money for my speaker install. Thank you!

The website enabled me to find an exact match/fitment for my older Suburban. Installation instructions for my specific vehicle were sent via email as a PDF document - very clear and understandable. Various choices of speakers to meet any price point were available. The speakers arrived quicker than anticipated. They were packed well and arrived with no damage at all.

Better than expected
December 4, 2020

Crutchfield had my item in stock when I couldn't find it anywhere else online. It was shipped out and arrived 2 days earlier than they estimated. I hate styrofoam with a passion, so was extremely happy to see their starch-based packing peanuts! Well done, Crutchfield! I'll definitely order from you guys again.

I chose Crutchfield for the purchase of my McIntosh RS200 main by reputation, satisfaction guarantee and prior service. I was not disappointed. Top notch service and a website easy to navigate. When I make a purchase like this I'm very excited to get the product installed. I was amazed how fast my order was processes and shipped. I bought the receiver on a Friday and by Monday night I was listening to some fantastic tunes.

Crutchfield has quality audio and video equipment plus much more. Prices are great, and shipping my orders has always been two to three days. You can not ask for much more that that.

I ordered a Blue Ray player from Crutchfield after I checked for best places to buy one. The order was easy to buy and the delivery was fast. Will defuse them again!

This is a perfect solution if you want to add Bluetooth capability but don't want to go the less than perfect FM modulation route. Works perfectly and was not all that difficult to install. I mounted in on the top of a storage shelf below the a/c controls with 2 sided tape. I now not only have Bluetooth but a USB port to charge my phone. The blue indicator light was too bright for me at night so I fashioned a cover for it using a small red cap and a dab of silicon. Couldn't be happier!
