Perfect!

First of all, my new TV is awesome. Service from the team at the Exeter branch was second to none, I was kept informed from the moment I ordered online to when I collected from the store, the guys even carried the TV out to my van for me. Cannot fault at all!

Good shop

We arrived before opening time and he ( I’ve forgotten his name ) opened the shop . Was very helpful and knowledgeable. My son bought an amplifier that was just what I wanted for my old hifi system . Would certainly recommend this shop .

Cool Speakers.

Hi, I recently bought a pair of speakers from Richer Sounds in Exeter. The speakers them selves are superb and have brought a new level of listening and enjoyment of music.
The staff there were extremely helpful and I would recommend them to everyone.

Fantastic service and advice from the Exeter team especially Pete, Nick and Mark.

An Outstanding Service

Pete, the sales manager who dealt with us was superb. His knowledge and expertise was outstanding. He provided my wife and I a balanced view of the TV makes and how they have improved over the years. Despite having a clear idea of the make we wanted, Pete demonstrated a number of sets to us, allowing us to change our original plan and purchase an LG television instead. The LG is spellbinding. I would thoroughly recommend it.

Goodbye HarmonKarmon, hello Yamaha

I rang with a problem about my ageing AV amp and received clear and concise analysis that confirmed my fears. However, the process of buying a replacement was easy and, thanks to being a VIP member, not quite as expensive as it might have been. A new Yamaha RX-V4A AV amp arrived the next day. A little effort and an app later saw to setting up and the sound is great.
Once again, fab service from the team at Sidwell Street 👍🏻

Thanks very much for taking the time to leave your review. I’m pleased the team were able to give you the advice that made the process of choosing a replacement as straightforward as possible.
It’s great to hear that the Yamaha RX‑V4A arrived so quickly, was easy to set up, and that you’re now enjoying the results — and we’re glad your VIP membership helped soften the blow of the upgrade!

If there’s anything else we can help with in future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us at..
