Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service, extremely knowledgeable, courteous and helpful with setup - this is the reason why you should visit a shop rather than buy online!

Second-to-None

Richer Sounds approach to customer engagement is second-to-none. They actually have phone numbers for branches, which are answered by a real, knowledgeable person. I phoned about the availability in one store of a product, and we had a perfectly sensible conversation without sales push. I now have my product.

Wonderful advice and great service re a new TV and wall mount.
I’d tried various stores for a particular TV but they had no stock.
Leicester was the only store that suggested a slightly better model that was slightly more expensive.

The shop service was excellent

The shop service was excellent, I did have a problem with the delivery, they left it by my front door but didn't ring the bell or knock the door, I only found it after an email saying it had been delivered.

After researching amplifiers and speakers, I turned to Richer Sounds for a sound test of my top selections. Levi was exceptionally helpful, making my listening experience truly enjoyable. I encourage you to check them out; their prices are among the best, and you'll have the chance to listen before making a purchase. It's a decision you won't regret!

Made many Hi Fi purchases from this company since 1990s, always good value and the 6 year warranty is a must.
My latest buy was the Ben Q MacBook monitor, what a good screen it is, easy to set up and works a dream.
