A good experience

I wanted to buy a small TV, not the most glamorous thing. Harrison fully engaged and gave me good advice, with no hard sell.
The delivery team, Karol and Paul, were excellent too. Good communication re. arrival time. Very friendly and helpful.
A good experience.

Amazing store with very knowledgeable staff, two people who stand out are Dan and Mac.
I spoke with Dan on the phone and he explained everything I needed to know about the tv I needed.
When I visited the store in Southgate I was greeted by Mac who was very helpful and went over and beyond to help me.
I explained I’d already spoken with his colleague and knew what I wanted.
Mac arranged for delivery the following day!
I would highly recommend this store.

So was looking to upgrade my usher s520 to ae1s 40th anniversary
And Pete at Exeter was brilliant, always answered my emails great advice great price and the option to return for full refund if not what I was after.
Just saying they are an absolute keeper
I thought my ushers with my Rega Aethos and Rega Saturn and node icon sounded sweet
But add the ae1s and, well not being very good at audiophile lingo , they sound different but in an all together better way
I just can’t stop listening to them
So thankyou Pete and all at Exeter
I’ll be back!!!

I bought some great headphones

I bought some great headphones. The staff are so knowledgeable. I was allowed to test them in their fabulous private room, which is a stunning setting, low mood lights and totally sound proof. Great service, I wouldn't go anywhere else for my audio devices.

I called the shop beforehand to ask about cables for a friend’s loudspeakers. John , the manager couldn’t have been more helpful. Half an hour later, I went to Chambers Street in Edinburgh and all was sorted. I didn’t feel patronised even though I was clearly pretty ignorant about such matters. Terrific service. Thank you.

Excellent Service and Prices.

Great service and great prices, purchased an OLED TV from Richer Sounds. Richer Sounds was £300.00 cheaper than other outlets.
Would certainly recommend them and will certainly use again.

Painless ordering process

Painless ordering process. I was able to choose a delivery day, which unfortunately was cancelled by the delivery agent on the morning of delivery. That’s not the fault of RS but they chose the delivery company.

I found the information I required on your website and ordered the pvr click and collect. In store service was polite, efficient and friendly, giving me additional information regarding this new model, just been updated following some glitches with the previous model. The excellent service came as no surprise, my husband and I have been customers of yours since 1986 and my father since before then. We would happily recommend Richer Sounds to anyone.
