Richer Sounds prices can never be beaten. But what makes them special is their, above and beyond, customer service which is the best of any business/organisation with whom I've had dealings/purchases. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

The best place to buy your audio visual by far...

Richer Sounds is a great audio visual retailer where not only can you see and hear hardware instead of just online before committing to spending but has friendly knowledgeable staff. First they correctly advised me what I needed to connect my TV via optical audio cable to my HiFi but also I was able to view the Sony Bravia 8 II. The purchase in person was a quick straightforward good experience with finance options to suit my needs and they had the most competitive price backed with a 6 year guarantee. I recommend this retailer and would most definitely purchase from them again.

Attentive

Attentive, Knowledgeable staff who advised me on what to buy for my media wall before build.
There was a hint of “upselling”by Lewis that I was happy to go with.
The delivery was on time and handled with care by the company you use.
On reflection I believe that a move to alternative outlet (retail estate) would increase sales as the Bournemouth store is based in a dodgy district with a bus stop blocking the window of the store.

The item purchase was a superb deal infact I could not beat it. The advertised item did not do it justice as it was even better than expected, deliver was literally next morning could not fault the service and the sales staff were knowledgeable as always. Richard Sounds have come along way since the days of a cowboys outfit chewing Hubba Baba and blowing bubbles in-store with a demotivated sales assistant behind the counter.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
