My review of the Electronic Man will be fair and is only my humble opinion of the work perform by this person. I will not try to give a opinion on the Electronic Man knowledge of audio electronics because I am not an electrician. I will need to take it to another shop, because I don't know if he even sync my components. Talking to him is not easy.
What I can review is the handy work, since I do have experience assembling and soldering and wiring control panels and circuit boards. The Electronic Man has no real shop, so he does not have the basic electronic supplies a tech should have in his arsenal. I check the inside of my tuner and intergrated amp and found poorly executed soldering, all without even the use of shrink tubing. This is basic requirement and the Mickey Mouse attempt to keep the parts safe and static free is unheard of. So I was not very happy, the cost did not justified the work that was done, and requested, and what I paid this individual was not right. I did not want to have any issues with this person. I just wanted to the my units home and lick my self inflicted wounds alone. Now, this is all my fault for not listening to my gut. I just want you all to know that if you are bringing a special component that you want repair in a professional manner and in a proper audio repair shop, this is not the place for you. If you just need a component working again, than the Electric Man is your guy. His work will cost you up front, and the end result even more, but your component will work again, if that's all your looking to accomplish, I...
   Read moreThis was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had with a so-called “business.” I entrusted William Smith with a $500 microphone, and when it was returned, it was in worse condition than when I gave it to him. When I calmly asked for a refund, he became hostile and threatened me. He launched into a vile tirade, calling me just about every slur in the book.
He avoided responsibility at every level imaginable—to the point where I almost believed it was my fault. But in reality, my only mistake was bringing it to this abomination of a business in the first place.
William is so full of himself he drowns in his own ego—completely incapable of owning up to his mistakes. This is more than unprofessional; it’s unhinged. Avoid this man and his operation...
   Read moreThis guy really knows his stuff. I was sure I had a blown driver in one of my powered speakers. He showed up at my office and told me there were a number of reasons the driver could be cutting out like that and lo and behold it was a minor issue, (a couple of pots saturated with lubricant). He cleaned the whole circuit board and i was back in business. To be perfectly honest I thought he didn't know what he was talking about but I got em home and cranked em up loud. Sure enough, he hit the nail on the head, works perfect now. I was fully prepared to fork out a couple hundred bucks for a new speaker but I found an honest businessman instead.
Fast service, integrity and reasonable prices. Whats...
