My experience with Hi-Def Lifestyle

My experience with Hi- Def was awesome I worked with Chris Farling and he was very courteous and supportive understood exactly what I was looking for and did a thorough search to help me find a 2016 LG OLED 55C6P TV as I am a 3D buff and they're not making any more 4k 3D tv's anymore this was really important to me. He found one for me at a great price, I received it last week it's beautiful TV, beautiful picture, and the 3D to die for awesome!!!

Onkyo TX-NR777 receiver …

I purchased an Onkyo TX-NR777 receiver on a Wednesday evening and it shipped on Thursday. I received it on the next Thursday - typical for Fedex Ground across the country - Pennsylvania to Seattle. I am happy with the fulfillment and the quality of the receiver. My only complaint would be that there was no enclosed invoice and the online invoices do not contain any HiDef logo. I needed the receipt for Onkyo's trade-in program and it was disappointing not to be able to print a professional looking, branded invoice.

The unit showed up broken

The unit showed up broken, and the return of it cost $80, and that's after I had to remind the return clerk to provide me the return address and information.

M&K Sound Speakers

I ordered two M&K Sound rear channel speakers from HiDEF. They processed the order quickly but had the distributor send the speakers to them instead of to me. I called HiDEF and the people apologized forwarding the speakers to me overnight. However, when I opened the box, I discovered the speakers were BLACK when I'd ordered WHITE speakers. Rather than go through the hassle of exchanging the speakers, I decided to keep the black pair and just forget about it.

Found myself in need to exchange a music streamer I wasn't happy with. HiDEF Lifestyle went above and beyond what I expected. Super fast processing. Got my exchange overnight on a Saturday even though we're on opposite sides of the U.S.! I will come back to this kind of service. Thank you.

Thanks!
