Excellent

Made arrangements to demo in shop and everything was in place on arrival.
There is absolutely no pressure to buy but equally staff are nearby and available to answer questions.
From deciding to buy on a Tuesday, Darren made a 60 miles trip to deliver and set everything up on the Friday.
Recommended without hesitation.

**DNA Audio: Where Music Comes Alive**


My journey into high-fidelity audio truly began at DNA Audio. Yes, there was an initial scheduling mix-up (we all need a break!), but the passion and expertise of Darren and Simon more than compensated. These guys aren't just selling gear; they're helping you discover the magic of sound.

Their showroom is a haven for audiophiles, with curated setups to suit any taste. From the get-go, they understood my desire for detail and clarity. And then, the moment that changed everything: hearing Julian Lage and Chris Eldridge's "Mount Royal" on the stunning Rega P8 turntable.

The initial pluck of the strings exploded with newfound clarity. Each note was a revelation, followed by the warm resonance of the guitar bodies. I could sense two distinct instruments, Lage's brighter, Eldridge's mellower. Even their fingers on the fretboards became audible – a gentle sliding, the minute squeaks of shifting positions, the texture of the strings themselves!

Suddenly, there was space, a sense of the recording room, and the intimacy was breathtaking. The music transformed from a recording to a live performance, with thrilling immediacy and dynamism. That infectious joy in their playing...those subtle rhythmic shifts... pure magic. The Rega P8's silence as the final note faded was the perfect finish, leaving only the echo of the music in my mind.

DNA Audio ignited my passion for hi-fi. Their professionalism, knowledge, and dedication to finding the perfect sound are exceptional. Highly recommended

DNA is exceptional in delivering customer satisfaction

DNA is exceptional in delivering customer satisfaction, guidance and advice. The man at DNA - Darren has helped me through upgrading my Linn system without breaking the bank. His incrementalist approach to improving the sound of my all Linn system is excellent. No pressure. Thanks Darren. Regards A Thomas.

Hi Abdul, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave me a review. I think that if you are buying any piece of equipment customers generally want to get the best sound improvement for the amount of money available. I look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We really appreciate the positive feedback. There should be no pressure in Hi-Fi retailing. The equipment we offer should speak for itself. As Linn once said. "If it sounds better, it is better".

Great service (again)

Once again Darren fulfilled my every expectation and provided an outstanding service.

Went to preview a used Supernait 2. Made to feel very welcome, provided with tea and coffee and left alone to play with this brilliant integrated amp with absolutely no pressure or hard sell.

Came away with a large, heavy box and a big smile.

Thanks Darren.

Thanks Ian for taking the time to leave us a review and for your purchase. We really appreciate it. The Supernaits are great amps. You really can't go wrong as long as you bend your knees when lifting them.

Outstanding Service!

Again, DNA Audio went the extra mile with updates & installation setup of my LP12. With the addition of a Dynavector cartridge I have no hesitation in highly recommending knowledgeable and supportive Darren. Will definitely be returning for future upgrades & service.

Hi Simon, many thanks for taking the time to eave us a review. We really appreciate it. The Dynavector cartridges are a great match for the LP12. Once customers choose a Dynavector they generally stick with them unless they move up the range. Darren
