StereoMan — Local services in Asheville

Dropped off a Vintage Radio in June. We talked about how only the am worked but not the FM, seemed to think it was a easy fix. I ask him about cleaning the knobs after the back had been removed because it would be easier to get them clean, oh yes we can do that no problem. He told me I had to put a deposit which I did $100. He said it probably would just need a good cleaning and didn’t think it would much at all. I said I didn’t want to put much more than that in it. He told me it would take him awhile to get to it, I said no problem at all I was just excited that it could be fixed. After 3 months I hadn’t heard from him, so I called and ask how it was going that I wasn’t rushing him But I was checking in. Oh , I have cleaned it and I have ordered a tube. Okay I said call me when you know something. 6 months later in December I called and said I haven’t heard from you and it’s been 6 months. Which I think is plenty of time. Oh I ordered a tube can’t figure out what’s wrong with it. I said it had been 6 months that I should come pick it up and he told me he owed me a refund, Never said how much. When I went to pick it up he was wishy washy and finally figured out where he put it and brought it out to me. I said what about the deposit? He said it was his for his time! The Radio is NOT FIXED and Looks like it’s been untouched. It is the same amount of dirty as it was when I took it in. I can look through the back and see that he did blow the dust out of it. I understand that he should be paid for time spent finding the solution, but he was the one telling me how easy and inexpensive that he thought it would be. I Would NOT take anything there nor Recommend anyone. I was patient and gave him the benefit of the doubt. I was taking...

StereoMan has been keeping my high-end audio components in top running condition for years. Steve Livingston goes about his work with excellence, honesty, and total integrity. His prices are very reasonable.

Here's the most important part: To have an excellent technician with a shop locally owned is a great service to anyone who values fine sound. It's quite a treat to walk into his shop. It's like an audio component museum with old amplifiers, tape decks, turntables and speakers all around.

Back in the 20th Century it was common for high-end audio stores to maintain their own repair facilities. This is no longer the case. Without StereoMan folks like me would be sending components all over the world for all repairs, major and minor. This is not a happy prospect. I hope StereoMan stays in business and prospers for a...

StereoMan and Son is the go-to place for all your car audio installation services! I first went to StereoMan and Son back during the summer of 2014 and his son Dan, did an excellent job installing my door speakers into my 2014 Kia Optima. I told him, that I will be back in the later months to have my touchscreen radio installed as well. Fast forward to this past weekend and I took my car back to them to install my Pioneer AVH-X4700BS touch screen DVD receiver, Back-Up Camera, SiriusXM radio, steering wheel controls, sub-woofer, and amp. I must say, they got the job done in a matter of hours and did an EXCELLENT JOB!! Even the pricing was great!! I highly recommend StereoMan and Son and will go to them if I ever need any installations...
