Came in to get a replacement stylus

Came in to get a replacement stylus or cartridge for my turntable. Super helpful and brought in my turntable to have a new cartridge fitted. Unfortunately, turned out to be too heavy for arm, so ended up going with just a stylus replacement. Appreciate the customer service - always excellent and time for a fairly inexpensive component.

Passionate staff

I only bought speaker cable for my hi fi system but the advice I received was excellent. The staff are clearly passionate about what they do and are happy to share their knowledge to ensure that you get the best out of your purchases. It is good to know that there is still a specialist shop for these goods within reasonable travelling distance.

Another faultless transaction!

I’ve used Richer Sounds for years and years! They’ve always shown the same level of professionalism, mixed with expert knowledge and efficiency. I bought a new TV this time and it was a pleasure to deal with somebody that wasn’t in a call centre and who could organise delivery faultlessly. Even my wife said “are we getting it from Richer Sounds, because they’ve always done us well”. Enough said really. Keep up the excellent work.
