Stereo Installs — Local services in Mentor

So far this place lives up to it's excellent reviews. I had quite a bit of running around to do today as I had been putting everything off for health reasons which I am not disclosing...but I was anxious and i was not in a good mood when i got to the shop for a consult. They went over my options and when we located what I needed (a self contained woofer powered by it's own amp in the box), they discussed the best plan for an install and after that i put down the deposit. I even called back to test them and asked how much it would cost to got a second woofer installed while they were already installing the first one. Any individual that was only interested in money; was just lazy and didn't care about quality of work; was dishonest or didn't know what they were doing, would have offered to install that second woofer without batting an eye because that would've been hands down the easiest part of the installation. Dave not only told me straight up that this would result in splitting the power to both of the woofers, but that once everything was said and done, it's simply unnecessary because the quality of the single woofer/amp combo that I had agreed to purchase and have installed I would be extremely happy with. This would also indicate that Dave stood behind the product he sold with confidence. If this review remains intact, and unchanged...that means the install was as perfect as I thought it would be and is the best installation of car audio I have ever seen. If the install portion set to take place on June 2nd is anything less than top notch, and close to perfect I will update this review with details or repost my saved draft with this message again along with details. I suspect that the date of this review will remain as 05/18/2021 unless my socks get completely knocked off in which case I will post an even greater positive post somehow along with updated pics. The pics I included in this review are simply the before pics. Stay tuned!!!

Update 06/02/2021

This place delivered as promised! The customer service was awesome, they followed up with me and advised I could follow up with them for any tweaks on the sound system after listening to their work for a week and they would be happy to help. The work is absolutely perfect, seamless, and put in excellent workmanship and the project was finished in about how long I was estimated on timewise when I dropped the car off for the appointment I set. Will absolutely bring any additional custom work to them, especially regarding stereo installation/upgrades. Will try to include updated pics soon as well of finished work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. When it comes to this type of work you want a group of friends working on this type of project together so that there is a meeting of minds amongst friends, which is essentially what this business is and how they manage to put out such...

I thought I was going to have to be stuck with the mediocre stereo in my new Audi because I wouldn't be able to trust anyone to take the car apart the way it needed to be to install something good. I am pretty good at stuff myself, but I always seem to break at least one thing, so I didn't trust myself to do it on this new car!

After some research, I discovered Bryan and used him to finish the install of a radar detector and laser jammers that another shop was having trouble getting into the car. New Audi's are tight!

Watching him work, it was obvious to me that he was gifted when it came to understanding how to disassemble a very complex interior and put it back together again so that it looked like it hadn't been touched.

I decided to go ahead with a full Hertz/Audison sound system complete with a custom fiberglass sub cabinet/grill (that fits into the trunk cubby so it takes up no usable space in the trunk) and I am very pleased with it. It completely blows away the stock system and you wouldn't be able to tell that anyone has touched the car.

Later, I wanted to change out the interior trim/console for carbon fiber pieces (a difficult job that requires the removal of the whole center console among other things). I would not have considered it without knowing of Bryan's skill in making this kind of stuff happen, and once again, he did not disappoint. It came out great!

If you have a nice car and you are depriving yourself of some desired mods due to concerns about having it get messed up, give Bryan a call. He can get it...

Alright if you live in The Land and have an exotic whip (Regular cars are welcome too), a yacht (Could even be a pontoon), a motorcycle (Could be a 4 wheeler) heck even a house (Cardboard house's work too). You need to go to Stereo Installs and talk to Bryan. You don't know what he sells?... You don't need to know, just look him up, head out to his shop and give him a call. He will for sure hook you up in a way you didn't think was possible. Automotive stereos, Marine stereos, Anything on wheels stereos, Lights, HIDs, LEDs, Neons, Professional signs, Home entertainment systems, TVs, Ipads, Fiberglass, Alarms, Remote Starts, Navigation systems, Window Tint, Windshields😊, Heated Seats, Interior work.....I could go on and on forever. Basically anything you think would be cool and wanted to see if it's done just call Bryan. He will for sure help you out and not charge you an arm and a leg, like some shops. If he can't for some miraculous reason be able to help you, he'll definitely know of a local guy who will. Straight legit freaking shop!!! Big things are...
