I live a long way from my nearest store at Southampton so I rang to check whether my choice of amplifier was in stock for audition or collection. Good decision as it wasn't, however Marco did a price... See more

I asked for support with what I was looking to buy. I was shown some options. My existing speakers were tested so I was able to re-utilise these. Paul was really helpful.

Shop Local, it's always worth it.

Visited the store to check on actual definitive dimensions of an item - foot location underneath! Didn't have the right stock, but James willingly engaged in sorting out the actual unsuitability of the item. Would have stayed longer but was also playing beat-the-traffic-warden. Phoned the store the next day to order the right item but got bounced to Brighton store, becasue they were physically closed, where Rosie took my order and got it delivered to the Southampton store for me to pick up the next business day. Picked up my item after a confirmation call to say it had arrived. Fabulous.

Great staff

Rob and his staff are a credit to Richer Sounds that’s why over the years I have bought many items from the Southampton branch and continue to do so. They have a great deal of experience and knowledge and nothing ever seems too much trouble. I always feel I can pick up the phone and speak to a member of staff if I need help.

The Warranty is worth the paper it's written on!!

I bought my television from a different Richer sounds shop in London (my second TV from the company) but after verifying my details Ben did not hesitate to help me with replacing a faulty remote on the generous warranty offered with my TV. No fuss, no bother, on its way to me within 24 hours. I have always had good service with Richer Sounds, thank you Ben!

First Class service

Both the online and in-store service (telephone call in this instance) was exceptional. I had a number of questions regarding the differences in my potential choice of purchase, and the people I spoke with couldn't have been more helpful.

Couldn't have had a better experience

Couldn't have had a better experience. Someone helped me as soon as I entered the store and took me through the different options for what I was looking for (a turntable and speakers). They did me a great deal so I could stick to my budget, and I got something much better than if I just bought a package online. Plus everything I wanted was in stock so I managed to take it home the same day. Would definitely recommend Richer Sounds.

Reply from Richer Sounds - Southampton

We’re really pleased to hear that you found the colleagues advice helpful but apologies the set up of your new item proved challenging. Turntables can sometimes be a little more involved, particularly for first‑time setup, so I'll check in with the store to remind them to always explain to customers in the event of a problem to call the store for help.

If you are still having issues of course please do get in touch, otherwise I hope you are happy with the quality of the system and thank you again for your custom.
