Great service is the number 1 reason for the five stars, but I should also comment on the TV.
I hoped I would be happy with it, but I was not.
I was overjoyed.
My opinion - better than OLED without any burn in concern.

Highly Knowledgeable and Helpful.

Highly perspicacious staff who had all been working there a long time, which is always a good sign.

They took care and pride in their work too. Supererogatory effort.

Customer service at its finest

Just picked up my Samsung soundbar, subwoofer and speaker set from Richer Sounds Newcastle after ordering online. Got a quick call to say it was ready, and the team in store were fantastic. The agent who helped me was really knowledgeable and went the extra mile to sort out my cashback offer - top service. Really impressed and I’ll be ordering a UST projector and another soundbar from them very soon.

Nice people who know their onions

Nice people, knowledgeable and as technical (or non-technical) as you want. Steered me well based on a couple of prerequisites. In and out in 15 minutes with no time wasted. Fast and efficient delivery.

Brilliant service

I had a problem with a stylus on my new Record Deck which transpired to me probably accidentally causing it to get damaged. Harry explained what precautions need to be taken in ensuring this did not happen again. The stylus was obviously not therefore covered by the insurance but he took a very sympathetic view of the situation and so had a good deal in replacing it. I purchased also a further spare stylus and. Record /: stylus cleaning kit from him.
Brilliant service and arrived within two days. Harry actually sold me the record deck( Audio Technica) previously and great service there too.
Please thank him personally for me as a great asset to Richer Sounds!

Streaming stand alone system

I booked our audition of streaming amps and speakers with Euan, and had a great experience throughout the process of listening to each one of the streaming amps through the same speakers. The auditioning room was private and we were never rushed. We would like to thank Euan for making our choice very easy to make. Nothing was a bother during our 1.5hours there.

I searched around for a large screen tv all over the internet and nearby local stores and Richer Sounds offered the best price plus free delivery and most important of all a six year guarantee!
I couldn’t see anyone else offering a six year guarantee so purchasing from them was a no brainer.
The delivery team of two placed the rather large box exactly where I wanted it in my lounge.
I would definitely recommend them.
Also my TV was new for 2026 and they had to get the new stock in which they did within their promised delivery time.

Fantastic service from Richer sounds.

To be honest I had a fantastic experience with Richer sounds. The tv I wanted was out in other stores but I wanted to wait for Richer sounds. I gave them a call left my details and was told I would receive a call when the tv came in. After about a week I received an email from Richer sounds saying my tv would be in on the Wednesday. I put my order in on the Wednesday and unbelievably it arrived on the Thursday. Super fast delivery. All through the order I was supported by the Richer sounds staff keeping me up to date with everything. Because there customer service is of such a high standard, that was one of the reasons I waited for them to get stock rather than buy from someone else a little bit earlier. Fantastic.

Excellent service from Euan

Excellent service from Euan, listened and understood what I required and his product knowledge was perfect. He did a demonstration of the equipment we were interested in which satisfied my requirements. Highly recommend richer sounds. Delivery was also perfect, arriving on time and no hassle.

Turntable Heaven!

I would like to say a big thank you to Harry and Ethan ( two young lads ) at the Newcastle Store, for helping a not too tech savvy OAP make sense of the modern usb turntables.
After a couple of visits to the store, i felt confident i was ordering the best product for me.
I always prefer to shop in store whenever possible, and Richer Sounds still offer that oppourtunity.
They offer a great range of products, great prices and really great service.
Thanks once again.
