I called in as I happened to be near the Southampton store, after considering a sub woofer for some while. Ben was terrifically helpful, not pushy, but after checking my needs and current set-up, reco... See more

Jim & Richer Sounds were brilliant

Jim was brilliant !
Fired a bunch of questions at him regarding Sony TV + soundbar/sub/rears audio package. Very responsive & knowledgeable including recommending suitable wall mounts. Very competitive price and super quick delivery - came the next day :)

65" Bravia 9 TV + Theatre Bar 9 : picture & audio are both top notch. Haven't set up the rears or sub yet , but with just the TV & soundbar , it's impressive :D

It's in a south facing room with windows opposite the TV & the Bravia 9 is more than bright enough to look good. Admittedly , it's not the summer yet ..but there has been a couple of sunny days ;) - and in low light it's awesome.
Thank-you Jim & Richer Sounds ( Southampton )

Better off purchasing direct from manufacturer.

After having had to return a non working AVR, purchased through my Amazon account, I decided to go for a soundbar directly with Richer Sounds. I am still waiting delivery. It would have been cheaper for me to have purchased directly from the manufacturer where next day delivery was guaranteed and FREE.
I will say that the customer service I received on my first two calls to Richer Sounds was excellent. Third call, not so helpful.

Thank you for your feedback, it is obviously disappointing that you are yet to receive your purchase and that you have since seen it cheaper elsewhere.

We will review the final call you made to the store ensure we address that with the colleague concerned, find out what the delay is with your order, contact you to ensure you receive it asap and address the price issue directly with you to make sure you are happy..

The experience

The initial advice. No pressure to buy. Ability to place order over the phone without any doubt as to what I wanted. The delivery arrangements in particular the delivery tracking app.

Great knowledge and advice

We came in looking for a record turn table, also interested in cd player as well.
After some fantastic advice from Paul, we came away with both.
Had decent speaker cables made as well.
Easy to set up at home, the sound is pure quality. I have not used the turntable yet as that is my birthday present, in a couple of weeks.
I highly recommend this store the pure knowledge and information alone. Some amazing products for sale. All what I wanted was in stock, so was able to take home, straight away.

Staff were very helpful and knowledgeable, the delivery was as expected, the only downside was the TV was damaged in transit, Richer sounds organised another TV which was delivered two days later in good order.

The staff genuinely want to ensure you buy something that will work for you and your home environment. They advise you on the devices features but also on its limitations which is particularly important when buying a projector.

Richer Sounds is our Go To

Richer Sounds is our Go To, and again no dissappointment. I needed some explanation about the FiiO DM13 and got sincere and precise answers so that I proceeded to the purchase, sure that I was doing the right choice.... and I did. 5 stars is what Richer Sounds deserve, once more. I am super happy with my very handy CD Player.
