Home Audio Installation in San Francisco, CA

After searching for the right setup for a long time, I went with the XGIMI 4K projector and Vividstorm ALR screen. But finding the perfect audio system was a struggle. During a business trip to San Francisco, I found Music Lovers Audio & Video, and I’m so glad I did! The staff there were super knowledgeable and really took the time to understand what I was looking for. They helped me pick out the ideal audio gear that perfectly complements my projector and screen, creating a fantastic home theater experience. Highly recommend Music Lovers Audio & Video if you’re after expert advice and gear that works together seamlessly! Their service made all the difference.

I recently (2 months ago?) purchased a demo pair of Vivid loudspeakers and had a fantastic experience working with Spencer Giel. He is perhaps the nicest and most patient audio salesperson I have dealt with. We visited 3 times to make our final decision, Spencer set up the demos and allowed us a lengthy listen to evaluate including comparisons with other speakers at the store. During one demo I had concern that something was not sounding right, Spencer patiently investigated what was a loose connection. There were several follow-up phone calls and emails for various issues - my friend left his work badge and Spencer mailed it back to us, Spencer noticed a problem with a binding post, and we had warranty and other questions, and Spencer replied promptly and thoroughly to all communications. Highly recommended!

Came here on the weekend to try some high-end headphones that we were interested in. Spencer, the store associate showed us a couple and let us try them. We also listened to some surround sound systems/subwoofers with amazing sounds quality. We love high quality sound, and we think it is something worth investing in since we love music and movies. I highly recommend that you come here to give the items a try. After trying the headphones, we were able to determine which one fit us best. Thank you Spencer!!

After searching for home theater equipment for a long time, I finally decided on an XGIMI 4K projector and an ALR screen from Vividstorm. But when it came to choosing the right audio system, I was having a hard time finding a setup that truly worked for my home theater. Luckily, I was in San Francisco for a business trip and came across AudioVisionSF, a store that had been highly recommended online. The staff there were incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to understand my needs. They helped me find the perfect audio equipment that complemented my projector and screen, creating a seamless and immersive home theater experience. If you're looking for expert advice and equipment that works perfectly together, I highly recommend visiting AudioVisionSF. Their personalized service made all the difference!

I had an awesome experience at AudioVisionSF. I first came in to buy a new speaker system, and Randolph was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. He set up multiple demos so I could actually listen to different speakers side-by-side, which made a huge difference. Even after my visit, I called a few times with follow-up questions — he always remembered me and had thoughtful answers. Amrit was also great whenever I emailed or stopped by when Randolph wasn’t around. On top of that, they host fun events where you can try out all kinds of gear, from speakers to headphones. Overall, a fantastic place with genuinely helpful staff. Highly recommend!

I'm a younger individual and newer to the audiophile world but was nonetheless greeted immediately by Randolph. It was clear that Randolph was exceptionally knowledgeable but all the while very patient in answering some of the elementary questions I had. Purchased a record and when I got home I was delighted to see that despite it being a pressing from the 50's, it had been thoroughly cleaned (it was spotless) and was in mint condition. These guys are the real deal yet also super humble. 10/10 selection of equipment, 10/10 support on site, and great quality behind what they got. Would highly recommend Audio Vision to anyone looking to learn more about the world of hi-fi music.

We visited Tone of Music Audio in our search for an integrated amplifier to replace one that just died (after 40 yrs.) Tim had selected one that he thought would fit my rather modest system and deliver more musical, more informed sound than my old Rotel. After spending about 1-2 hours listening to various music using this amplifier and a few different speakers, my wife and I made the purchase and went home happy owners of a delightful, new Rega amplifier. Thanks to Tim at Tone of Music Audio for the loan of his experience; as well as his encyclopedic knowledge of audio equipment and listener experience. We learned a bit, got a terrific amplifier, and found a place to go for knowledgeable, truly personalized sales and assistance. Honestly, the sound we're hearing from our system now makes us happy indeed.

Great experience and very happy with our purchase. Tim is patient, knowledgable, friendly and super passionate about audio. He stocks great gear at a range of price points. He listened to us and showed us turntable and amp configurations starting from low cost on up to high end. He had us listen to compare quality between price points and explained what you get for the increase in cost. He helped us put together a fantastic home audio system within our budget. I Highly recommend Tim and his shop.

Tim is a true professional. He has a passion for music. He is honest and provides you the necessary information so you can make a good decision. It's all about the music, not the equipment Highly recommended!

The wife and I got an entire new system from Barry. From start to finish he guided us through with great information and distilled all the marketing hype from the things that we actually needed to consider. We wanted a complete multi room set up for music and home theater and we were not disappointed. From the myriad of components to choose from to the installation of the in ceiling speakers, these guys are pros. I would say that our experience before, during and after the install with them was A+. Thank you!

I have never had a better experience than dealing with Barry at Performance Audio. I had a problem with the input for one of the TVs they installed nearly 4 years ago and after numerous phone calls to figure the problem out Barry came to my residence to trouble shoot the problem.. They have a great selection and installers if you want them to put together a system for you.

These guys set up my mum’s new TV, and after I told her she needed a new high speed HDMI cable to support HDR (to replace her original one), she asked them to install it. They rudely refused multiple times and told her I didn’t know what I was talking about. Anyone with a basic understanding of technical requirements for video and audio would know this. Definitely recommend going elsewhere. She paid a fortune for her new TV and setup yet they can’t be bothered to replace a 10 year-old cable to make sure it can accommodate the latest technology.
