Quickly established that a product we had bought online wasn't functioning properly and issued a refund so we could upgrade to a different model.

Great store to visit

For me it means a lot to be able to see equipment before I buy, and also to chat to experienced people about the choice I need to make. I travelled 30 miles to get to a Richer Sounds store in Oxford and was very grateful for the friendly and knowledgeable help I was given for my new WiiM equipment.
Now at home it’s great to hear my streamed music through my own (older) hi if system. It just beats the bluetooth alternatives hands down. Thanks for keeping a physical presence in the streets Richer Sounds!

Helpful and friendly staff. Good advice and no pressure.
Good range of quality hi-fi equipment.
The kind of bricks and mortar store that’s harder to find nowadays but well worth having

Best customer service ever…

My 5 year old Denon receiver needed a CD player repair. I'd forgotten if I'd taken an extended 6 year warranty and had no paperwork. Kaz and his team at Oxford went to the trouble of finding détails of my pruchase in 2021, and said, yep you're covered. That impressed me, my original purchase and the repair were no big deal compared to the amazing kit they sell- but they took the time. Even better, when I took it in I was expecting the usual 14 day or more wait, it wasn't urgent but no,afer leaving it there at 1pm on Thursday, it was back on my doorstep with DPD on Saturday, just under 48 hours later, fully repaired, sounding great and no cost or delivery charge at all. Wow, amazing service ....I'm definitely a customer for life.Ray. Oxford.

Great service

I wanted to thank Paddy for fitting my QED airlock banana plugs today - he did a great job with very complicated cables.

It was great service from the Oxford store as always!

Easy to buy over the phone and reassured by their expertise. Delivery was super quick and there were no issues in swapping out a damaged lid when my player arrived.

Helpful understanding staff, Richer Sounds Oxford are very professional.
I was not certain of which speaker to purchase but with the good advice from the staff I purchased the Wharfedale Diamond 12 set. Delighted with them.

Knowledgeable service, good price, excellent post-purchase support.

Excellent purchase experience - Paddy provided lots of info to help us decide between various TVs we we considering. Not in stock at the branch, but delivered direct to our home the following morning - impressive!! Setting up the various functions posed a few problems, but a couple of phone calls eleicited the info we needed and now we are all set up and enjoying our new viewing SMART TV viewing experience. Definitely 5 stars for Richer Sounds and the Botley team.
