Recently ordered a pair of Dali Opticon 6 speakers from the Exeter branch via email with an employee called Nick. He was extremely helpful and dealt with the purchase perfectly informing me when they were in stock ready for me to collect as that was my preferred method. Love the speakers very much. Thanks Exeter/Richer Sounds.

Great service, great TV.

Great help and advice from the staff at Richer Sounds Exeter, as always.
The delivery of our Hisense mini led tv was organised and arrived within a few days, delivered by helpful van driver.
We haven't had the TV long so there is much to investigate.
The picture is sharp, colourful and bright. We do run it through an existing sound system. There are loads of 'apps' and Freely although new to us appears easy to navigate.
Thanks again to Richer Sounds Exeter.

Excellent service

Friendly, informative assistance and advice received over the telephone by Paul pre-order, followed by the ease of ordering. TV was promptly delivered and set up was 'a doddle' - even for an 84-year-old !

Follow-up advice and attention to customer queries was also received promptly delivering a pleasing experience throughout.

Ordered a Philips PHIL-24PHS6000 24"

Ordered a Philips PHIL-24PHS6000 24" which we were able to collect the following morning after receiving a phone call from the shop. The TV is great - very easy to set up and Freely works a treat via the internet as we have no aerial for this set.
The Richer team were as helpful as ever.
