Sound in Motion: what do users think?
David Luria: The service is concierge level, the workmanship is fine artistry and the sound is a heavenly cocoon. It feels like I’m inside a pair of headphones
Chris: I wouldn't consider going anywhere else. They've worked on 2 previous cars and have another scheduled for next month. Jim and his staff are professional and quality of work excellent. They are very well respected in the community and I trust their recommendations explicitly.No affiliation, just a very satisfied customer and wish I could give them 10 stars.
Luiz Hair Salon: This review is for me give long time ago, actually about 2 years ago they install a remote start on my Toyota Camry and till today it works fine. Based on quality of service and prices I will be back to install a back up camera system 😎👍
Jack: Nice, friendly people. Definitely recommend! -edit- Have been twice now, and had a great experience with Jim on both occasions. He is incredibly knowledgeable and gives thoughtful advice.
Edwin Curet: A1 customer service, thank you Jim!
Andrey Kotler: Like a charm - excellent service !
Danny Hebert: Great place
Robert Boucher: I have a 2019 Corvette ZR1 that I wanted to improve the safety systems on, add radar and laser as well as seriously upgrade the audio system. I looked everywhere for a team that could select the best equipment to satisfy my needs. Fortunately I found Sound In Motion. They handled all of my requirements and chose the best equipment available. They worked with me on every aspect of the install and when we ran into some problems with the equipment they continued to work until I was extremely satisfied. This team is well led and totally customer oriented. I can honestly say that I have never had the opportunity to work with such consummate professionals in my life. If there were 6 stars I would be giving them that rating. I will never use another company for my automotive needs!
William Band: Appreciated the knowledgeable advice without trying to pressure me into buying an audio system that is too elaborate for my needs.
Brian S: 15 years ago I had my 2006 VW Jetta outfitted with an amplifier and a Focal component speaker system. I'm sad to report that after 15 years of trouble free use, the system needs to be removed because we are parting with the car. We enjoyed a quarter million miles listening to great sound in this car, and it wouldn't have been the same without it. Now, this same system will be re-purposed into another vehicle, and enjoyed for many years to come.
Yamil Kouri: All the one star reviews are jokes. This is hands down the only place you should take your car for any installation. They installed a remote starter for me and were extremely accommodating for my schedule. I then talked to them about tinting my windows and originally they couldn’t fit me in until June, then Jim gave me a call and was able to do it a month sooner. I cannot praise them enough. This place is professional and accommodating.
Joshua Yen: My experience with Sound in Motion has been magnificent. I had a custom sound system installed into my Tacoma back in March 2020. When I got the truck back, I looked inside and it was as if nothing had happened. It was an extremely clean install.I had Dynamat Extreme sound deadening installed in all 4 doors and the back wall of the Tacoma, as well as inside the subwoofer box. Everyone comments that the truck cabin is very quiet and is comparable to riding in a luxury vehicle, which is what really brings out the high quality speakers the SIM team put together. Everyone who hears the system says how "tight" it is, no buzzes or vibrations, even at low volume, and is mind blowing at higher volumes.There were a few tweaks we had to make, which is typical of high end sound systems, due to a faulty tweeter. The process of narrowing down the problem was time consuming, but the SIM team was stellar!In the end, I ended up jumping at the chance to go ahead and upgrade the front stage speakers. All I can say is wow, I’m so happy I did, unbelievable!!Jim, whom I dealt with, is a very professional, honest and fair individual. I would highly recommend Sound in Motion for all of your vehicle upgrade needs. They just moved to Watertown into an awesome space, I'm really happy for them.I’ll definitely be back for other work I’ll need in the future!I’m honored & pleased to have a sound system designed and installed by the Sound in Motion team!
Joel Oliveira: I am absolutely THRILLED with the work done by SIM to get a new Pioneer DMH-WT8600NEX head unit in our Mazda. Jim, the store manager, was an absolute joy to chat and work with. Friendly, knowledgable, and super high quality service is exactly why I chose to work with the folks at Sound in Motion. I couldn't be more happy with how everything turned out.One note to underscore how professional and high quality they are - a day after picking up my car I look around at the inside of my car and notice they went above and beyond and freshened up my floors, my dash, the center console - everything. Just an outstanding level of detail and care.They have a repeat customer in me.
Manuel McLean: The best
Mohammad Nerjoy: They asked 550 dollars to install a Dashcam in my car . The guy said it gonna take 4 hours to install a dash camera 😂😂😂. I get it done only in 100 dollars from somewhere else.
Johnnie Dee: So many choices when seeking to upgrade a 12 year old clunky German system. I enjoyed the guidance and recommendations from Jim and his team. The install of a new system exceeded my expectations in sound quality and zero alteration of the car itself. Jim was great helping me with set up technology and programming. Thank you gentlemen!
Onewheelfloater: I just had my stereo system installed in my BMW 335i ... Sound in Motion definitely delivers in terms of great customer service and 5-star installation quality. I am walking away an extremely happy camper as this is by far the best sounding system I have ever had . It has great clarity and volume thanks in part to the Mosconi amplifier and Focal speakers and the professional install. Probably the best car audio installation shop in the state... super knowledgeable ....Jim the manager takes the time to thoroughly answer any and all questions . Highly recommend this shop.
Cenk O: Accommodated me last minute, works great
Sinan Kocaman: Thank you Sound In motion for the great service. Just had 2 channel dashcam and radar detector hard -wired. Everything works great and I am very crazy about the car being clean after its been worked on and received the car the way I dropped it off.
Dennis Clair: Just got my car back from Jim, Derek and the crew. They put in a sound system that is OUTRAGEOUS!!They had previously installed a radar detection system. I wasn't pleased with the placement of part of it. We discussed my issues/concerns and they relocated the part in question. No questions - you're not happy, we're not happy - that was the attitude that I got. They wanted me to be satisfied not just do the job.That is why I go back to them. They're professional and take the time to make sure that I was pleased with what they did.I can't stress the attention to detail at this shop. Everything they do is a "First Class" job!Thanks Sound in Motion for an outstanding team, installation and product!!
Jay Williams: We drove our son to Boston from Arizona for surgery at Boston Children's. The sound system stopped working while in Boston and I couldn't imagine a return drive without audio. I found SIM through Google....wow. They quickly determined the problem and offered a very reasonable solution. Jim Cavanaugh is a quality person...he cared about our personal situation and made time in the schedule that fit our availability. I'd highly recommend SIM to anyone looking for quality automobile audio solutions from quality people. Thank you, Jim.

Q Audio: what do users think?
Ryan Levins: Dariusz loves his craft and it shows. He's been doing it for years thru all the technology changes and he knows it all like the back of his hand. From a small 2.1 setup to a whole home audio system, he's your guy. Don't go anywhere else.
Joshua Meyers: This store is one in a million. Darius is one of the most trustworthy and well-informed owners I’ve ever met. He knows his products so well, stands behind his work, and never over-sells. Grateful that this place exists!
Francisco Amado: I. LOVE. THIS. PLACE. Do yourself a favor - you can spend countless hours going to CNET, Wirecutter, WhatHiFi, Wired, AudioScienceReview, etc or you can talk to Dariusz. Read some of the negative reviews and that's simply not been my experience - he's not a "mansplainer" (he's an audio enthusiast who will share his opinion) and he's not a closet racist (I am black, I am super sensitive to establishments where I do not feel welcome and Dariusz has been anything but). Dariusz is knowledgeable, took his time to research my equipment and offered suggestions on how to change settings to improve it, and has actually talked me out of spending more money than I need to. Q Audio is now my go to place for audio equipment!!!
Troy L: I bought an used pre-amp from Q-Audio. Glad that Dariusz was able to ship the item from Cambridge. MA to L.A./Socal. Communications and transaction were smooth and quick. Packaging and shipping was A+. The preamp arrived as good as described from Q-Audio website. Looking forward to do business again with Q-Audio in the future!
Tao Zhang: I wasn't very sure initially when I walked in the first time for a Rotel repair. But the service turned out great! My tuner works even better now than before it broke! I really enjoy working with and supporting local business.
Ethan Zhou: Overall I highly recommend this place for speaker system! I went to this place for audio system. Even though the place don't have enough headphone amps for me to try, the owner gave me couple good suggestions on how I should be building my system.Since there's not many people in the store, the owner let me audition speakers comfortably for almost 2 hours using my favorite music (as long as you can find it on Tidal). I can even try speakers that's way out of my budget. While I am auditioning the speakers, the owner was happy sharing his opinions and answering various questions that I came across. (This is a much better experience compared to Magnolia listening room in bestbuy, where I can only play a couple minutes of music of their choice to me, and will immediately pressure me into buying their product).However, this place can be busy at time, so if you need more time and help on speaker systems, it will be better to find a less busy time to visit, so the owner (who is knowledgeable and helpful) can better assist you.
Caio Fernandes: Shop owner was super helpful, easy to talk to, and informative; would come back again!
Al Grimason: Outstanding service. Darius helped me thru my Anthem AVR selection and I could not be happier. I highly recommend Q Audio.
Seth Porter: I stopped by Q Audio on Friday afternoon to check out some headphones they had in stock. The salesman was very knowledgeable regarding the Grado models and gave me a tailored recommendation based on my previous experience with a pair of SR 225e.I'd highly recommend this store to any Bostonian serious about high end audio products.
EG M: Super quality audio, and thoughtful service. Give yourself plenty of time when you come here because there is so much to learn about and so many options to try out!
Ryan Wong: Really helpful and passionate owner, it was a true pleasure being able to demo a speaker setup.
Tim Mayer: Demitriusz is highly knowledgeable and passionate about high fidelity gear, both vintage and new. He did a great job bringing my 1960s vintage Thorens turntable back to life, and it sounds better than ever! He's considerate and easy to work with. Highly recommend!!
Peyton Buteau: Repaired a damaged 3.5mm jack on my headphones cheaply and quickly. Great service!
Billy Sofis: Guy knows his stuff, fixed my expensive turntable in a couple days at a very reasonable price
Gerald O: Q Audio is one of my favorite audio stores.Great service from Darius - very knowledgeable, patient and spot-on with his recommendations. Well appointed store, comfortable place to audition equipment. I ended up buying a Musical Fidelity M3si stereo amplifier, Bluesound Node 2i streamer and Kimber cables - sound great with the my Bowers and Wilkins 603 speakers - more than enough power, clean, detailed couldn't be happier! Much thanks Darius!I had only recently realized that I bought an NAD AV Receiver and Grado headphones about 20 hrs ago from Q Audio and very glad that I decided to visit when I was in Boston.
Roy Adams: Only place to get my Reciever repaired,thanx for being helpful
Ralph McClain: From the initial contact over the phone to loading up my new equipment, I was left to make my own decisions while Dariusz was readily available to answer questions and offer advice without a sense of trying to steer me one way or another. Simply put, Q Audio will be the first place I go when considering new stereo equipment.
bornagain bornagain: I have been building a new home theater for about 3 years and have finally finished. I started out getting a bunch of old speakers on Ebay and Craigslist. I am a big ADS speaker fan. I went through several different models and settled on the L1290/2s. I got two pairs and built a center channel cabinet and purchased new drivers and a crossover from Rich So. I got fed up with the AV receiver that I was using to drive them, it had too little power. I had an old stereo amp a Nikko Alpha 440 and got an idea that I could buy more of them off of Ebay or Craigslist and then put together an all seperate theater with alot more power. I contacted Dariusz and asked him if he could rebuild these amps and he told me he worked on them for years and it would be no problem. After several bad purchases I finally got one he could repair. I got all my money back from Ebay on the amps that were unrepairable , and decided to purchase a new 5 channel amp that was both powerful and had high current capabilities, and a new preamp as well so I could upgrade to Dolby Atmos. The preamp I got from Dariusz was an Anthem AV60. I was going to match that with a Parasound amp and at the last minute Dariusz got a hold of an Anthem P5 used. I asked him to hold on to it for me and without a deposit he held it for me. I have been into stereo gear since the late 60s and always could only afford mid fi gear. I have read all the magazines so I do know a little bit more than the average consumer. The rebuilds of the old Nikko amps was flawless. Dariusz even swapped all the speaker terminals on one amp so they would all be the same even without me asking. He is very busy and it was extra work so I didn't ask him to do all 4 but he did it anyway and I was very happy. I watched him teach customers while I was waiting, I watched him repair minor issues on gear that people carried in right on the spot. One turntable got fixed just for the price of the parts. The sound of my new theater now is incredible, I have all the power my speakers need and then some. He did get a little flustered after bringing him one junky amp after another but never told me he couldn't help. I have finally got the theater of my dreams, awesome power, clarity, dead quiet signal to noise, I am hearing all kinds of new music on my recordings and movies. If you love music, and movies with surround sound you really should let Dariusz help you get the right gear. I feel so fortunate that I found him to help me put together an incredible system. Highly recommended.
Tomas Svitil: Dariusz is the man! He is very professional, responsible, and responsive. He sets the right expectations, doesn't overpromise, and he delivers on what he does promise. I had a power amp that was going into safety mode constantly. When Dariusz was ready to take on the work, he let me know, and then fixed it in 2 days. His prices are very reasonable, he does not upsell or overcharge, he does what needs to get done to fix the issue. He is very passionate about his work and it shows. If you have the time, you can spend hours talking with him about audio and come out much smarter for it.
Melissa Diblasio: Too busy to help out! Told to call somewhere else.
Ed: Dariusz is the phono-whisperer.Super friendly and very reasonably priced for the quality of service and product delivered.He quickly and expertly installed and calibrated an Ortofon Blue cartridge on my Rega P2. It sounds night and day better than the cartridge that was on there. Skip amazon and support a local business. You will be glad you did.

Boomer Boston: what do users think?
Marc C.: Very good!
Michael Fitzmaurice: They did a fantastic job. People are really nice. Just a great experience.
chris Winston: Quality work definitely expensive
Ralph Jr: Great customer service
Kadidjha Traore: This place is so unprofessional. They always move at their own pace and act as if the costumers are a bother. I went for something I do every month and the service provider decided to tell someone else about my repairs which wasn’t his business at all even if he asked. All in all terrible experiences every time I go and they charge for any minor thing. Would not recommend this place. For the service and fees not worth it at all.
Sandra Hines: Very helpful always, I have been a customer for over 20 years. Great work!!
felix hereida: Buena a tension Gracia
Queenie Balasingam: I have a 5 cylinder , 5 speed manual vehicle a car alarm place that put in a pretty decent stereo in my car offered to put a remote start car alarm in my car, but upon seen the 3 peadals and the gear shift they said sorry we dont know how to install a remote start on this vehicle. They did have a waiting room, (something Boomers does not have.)I went to to Boomers they assured could install an alarm for me . It was a bit more work than for an auutomatic. They worked on it for quite a bit. Ive been delighted with this alatm ever since it was installed.
Cerica Horton: Staff were not courteous and professional. Referred to me as some “guy” behind a “guy” in line . When I informed the worker that I was a woman he told me that I was covered up so it didn’t matter and didn’t even apologize. I’ve been coming here for years and spent over 2,000. There is no need for poor customer service. On my most recent car I have gotten tints already but this particular incident happened for the remote starter.
Annemarie Okeefe: Great place to a get a stereo and speakers for a car was installed in less then an hour
Patricia Blakeney: The service was extremely helpful and friendly. I look forward to going back.
Zina Johnson: Went here to inquire about a part. Was helped by Matt who was very helpful..
John Paxton: I've been going there for about 12 years they always stand by the product great place They stand by their work and the quality of work is 2nd to none
Godwin Ihenetu: Experienced tech guru. Fantastic product inventory. BOOMER WILL ALWAYS BOOM.
greg smith: Great deal excellent repair or replacement
Jack Carlson: Best car audio shop in Dorchester, Boston, and this side of MA!
FGU Investments: Will be back for those trappers
Jhizel Tahrelle: They convinced me to go back and get my auto start installed. Explained all the different types of remotes and the features they contain.
Johnny Maldonado: To expensive there are other places that are more reasonable
Michael McPherson: I love Boomers these guys know their stuff and love to help people. It's a small operation but you're not there for aesthetics you're there for quality. Sound systems, tints, remote starters are their specialties.
Angela Robertson: If your looking for it, they have it!!!

Bori In The House Audio Custom: what do users think?
BaHamas Dolphins: Amazing place for good music. Prices are affordable.
Shawn Middleton: This place is way over priced. Called to have some rca plugs tapped into the wire on my factory sub and they wanted to charge 80 dollars for it ... and i already have the part!!! this place is trash!!! i wish i can give it a negative star!!!
chris Winston: I have to give it a survey of 5 stars the 1st time I went in this place when they installed some beautiful music in my car. I went back to get one like this on my Mercedes and it was horrible the service was horrible I can explain to you in a 1000 words how bad it was. Since I've been back 4 times and spending more money I was hustled I wouldn't refer this to any place the man was the man was not good he tricked me the 1st time he did a good job I came back with some additional work and all I did was get screwed over this is the last place in all of Boston I would ever go again. Absolutely horrible God-bless their way from that place
Josue Viciere: I noticed my HID after market headlight went out and needed the bulb to be changed the same day. I went to a couple places and they told me I would have to wait a week or more and would have to leave the car for 4 hours. I called Bori and who told me to come in and he’ll take care of it and he did it and 45 minutes . I will come back to upgrade my audio system as well. Great customer service.
Jonnathan Jean: Awesome custom car sound work, best in place.

Parkway Sound & Security: what do users think?
Rocio Cerna: Got remote start installed a few months ago, was told it would be a few hours but it was done in an hour and half which was even better! It’s been months and it’s working great. Also, to the person who installed it (sorry didnt grab the name) Thank you soooo much!
Familia Perez: El trabajo que solicité quedó bien por el momento fue control remoto
Medardo Ortiz: Excelente servicio al cliente
Fernando Miranda: Very nice people got the job dome fast for a fair price, nice and neat
Jonathan Argueta: Don’t really know where to start with this review.I’ve taken a couple of my cars to get some dash cams installed and everything has gone well till this past week. I took a brand new vehicle (literally off the lot) to get a sub and door speakers installed (installation 7/10). I get a phone call from one of the employees telling me that there is a scuff on the bumper.He also mentioned that he checked the cameras and that the vehicle was brought to them that way.I’m obviously asking myself how thats possible.luckily a buddy of mine owns a building next door, which has a camera pointing in the perfect angle of where the “scuff appeared”. In the cameras you can perfectly see that there is no scuff when I drop off the vehicle.The least I would ask for is some honesty.Make sure you guys check your vehicles before trusting them!
Matt: 5 stars aren’t enough. They are quick and professional. Definitely recommended. I would come back to another service!
Chris Phillips: Just went in real quick to check out the shop. Got all my questions answered and most likely will be back for service. Great customer service.
Kelly Lewis: welcoming staff. Fast service, and very happy with the quality of your work. Thank you!
Omar Alolayan: Great service, friendly and very nice staff. Would definitely comeback here again.
Claude A Robinson III: I could not be happier. Parkway Audio and security has provided great service and provided me with a premium sound system for a very fair price!Everyone was extremely nice but Vin is the one who directly helped me. I wanted to upgrade my stereo and sound system in my 2015 Nissan, I thought just replacing the speakers would be good enough. Vin informed me that most likely I would not hear what I wanted to archive. But he said I could think about the complete replacement and was not pushy at all. I really appreciated his professionalism and knowledge and came back less then a week later to finish the job. I purchased a cheap amp on Amazon and Vin agreed to install it, but again Vin advised me most likely I would not be happy! He was right and I realize you get what you pay for. I am so glad I returned the Amazon amp and have everything Alpine purchased here in my SUV. I Could not have hoped for a better Soundsystem! It is way louder then I expected or wanted, but it sounds amazing and I am very happy. Thank you
Todd Sullivan: Fast friendly and informative
Sidney Balbino: 😎👏👏👏
Karynna Quinones: Awesome service
Brandon Creador: If you go anywhere else to install car audio/electronics you are wasting time and money. The team here is very knowledgeable, supply of radios/audio and equipment was never ending. Might be a couple dollars more than Best Buy on installation but they do it right here and make sure you are happy with your product. I’ve had friends and family come here, always get A+ service and have never had a problem.. Come here for service and you will not be disappointed!
Marena Sok: The best place you can go in Boston Ma for your car getting aftermarket part to be installI got my 12in Kicker L7 speaker and kicker amp installAnd the setup they did is awesome best price.They even have a place where you can wait whichAt this time of COVID 19 can’t even be more happy Thank.
SSS: Amazing experience. They were able to help me get a new sound system for my car. Very knowledgeable about what I would need and gave me installation tips and “gotchas”. Definitely going to recommend them and will be back the next time I need a new car stereo.
Ludi Gonzalez: I got a remote starter for my car from here over a year ago and it works great. They did such a great job. I recommend to go here if you need a remote starter for your car
Steven DeMarco Sr.: Great staff, service and value!
Karla Flores: excellent customer service
Tom DelMedico: AWESOME!, AS USUAL. They know their stuff and will please their customers, old or new.
Heyner Urbina: I don’t know how this place runs, costumer service is Really bad, they installed my day light and my fog light but my dashboard start giving me problems with electricity cuz the lights they sold me wasn’t the right ones for my car, When I went there like 4 times trying to get help they want me to charge me another 300$ for 2 sets of lights again. They were rude and they never help you with nothing all they wanna do is just charge you more money for lights that I don’t even know is gonna work on my car. I wouldn’t recommend this guys, plus they don’t even know what they are doing.

Boston Audio Design: what do users think?
dwain thompson: They were very good and would recommend them to anyone
Shannon Larsen: This is a GO TO PLACE for upgrading your car stereo. They did it while I waited. Also great window tinting. Lots of options. Thank you, Johnstretchgfw
Olivia Dixon: Nice place to get work done on your car. I had my windows tinted and returned for a remote starter install. The process was quick and easy.
Edgar: John and company did a great job installing g my new tint.
Sharon DiOrio: Went in to talk to John about the possibility of upgrading my 2015 SUV to Apple CarPlay. I love the vehicle, but the older integration tech was lacking. John took the time to look up the parts prices, explain the process, give me a quote, confirm that my car was setup as he was expecting, and it was a great experience. I haven't pulled the trigger on the installation, but I trust John to do the work when I do.
Richard Ash: Great job on my window tints! Highly recommended!
vanessia lynch: I have had a total of 4 cars tinted at Boston Audio Design's. I purchased $199 for 7 windows deal from Groupon, my appointment was for 12pm I was there at 11:30am. Spoke to the attendant he took my phone and redeemed the voucher told me it should take about 2 hours, I go for a walk twenty minutes later BAD is calling me told me that my rear passenger windows did not needed to be tinted. His recommendation was to call Groupon, Groupon was like it's been redeemed by the merchant back and forth I go. So that I didn't waist my whole morning, I told them to do the front windows I was then told that it would be cheaper to get another voucher from Groupon " $69." For 2 windows ok how about I get the front done now if they refund me the money. I will pay you $70 or how about you refund me $ 129 dollars for the voucher your employee redeemed just less than an hour nope could do that either. Apparently some customers have ran into the same issue before and because they didn't pay BAD they felt like I wouldn't either. Wow 😯 4 cars and you didn't tried to help me at all. Oh well won't be using them in the future.
Don Uggiano: Great tint installation on my car.
Nick Sardelli: Got my front two windows tinted. It was fairly quick (about an hour). Tint looks great and so far no issues. My only issue is that they did not wipe off my doors when finished. There were streaks of water and soap all over my door dripping to the bottom. Would be nice if they wiped that off after installation.
John Larsen: Great people and products. Get your tunes here.stetchgfw
Patrick Vaughn: Great staff and great work
Justin Joyce: Had my trucks front 2 windows tinted, my wife got it with a Groupon. I scheduled an appointment for a Saturday, I showed up they took the truck right in. The owner I’m assuming, explained that the fronts would be lighter than the rears to be legal, I knew that so no problem. He then took my key and said about 45 mins it would be done. About 15/20 mins later he handed me the keys and told me it was done. Well I wish he took his time, more on that in a moment. I got in the truck and I see they placed stickers over the window switches so you don’t roll them down by mistake, (nice, professional) they put a card on the rear view mirror that gave care instructions, I.E. Don’t roll windows down for 3 - 5 days, water blisters are common and will go away it about 2 - 3 weeks depending on weather, and use ammonia free window cleaner. (Again nice, professional) Well I saw the water blisters, and they are going away, (this was explained, not a big deal) HOWEVER now after 4 days I’m seeing air bubbles, and can tell there is dust/dirt between the film and the glass. (NOT GOOD) Now I need to decide if I wanna drive an hour and 20 mins round trip and have them do it over, and if I do will it be any better the second time?? (NOT GOOD) In all honesty, I would go somewhere else after reading their reviews and how my windows came out if I had to do it again. If they took their time it probably would have come out ok, but rushing a job NEVER leads to a quality job. Telling me it will take 45 mins and finishing in 10 - 15 mins is definitely rushing, no wonder there are dirt/dust under the film causing air bubbles!
Adil N: I had a remote starter installed at this place. They claimed that they provide life-time warranty. But when the remote starter broke and I went there to have it serviced, they wanted to charge me over $50. Scam!
Tấn Đạt: Bad service
Annemarie Okeefe: Ordered new speakers still hasn't been able to receive them yet
Alex D: They’ve retinted windows 3 times with scratches and bubbles each time. I wasted too much time with them. Every time I asked to not scratch the film they explained it’s on the glass, but after retint the scratch moves to a different side of the window. They don’t know how to tint! Do not tint windows here! And they don’t do refunds.
Mariela Pimentel: excellent customer service, friendly people, high quality work, I definitely recommend them
Aj Conlon: Great work installing my Sony XAV-AX7000 in my Jeep JK. They were very accommodating to my schedule and did a solid job with installation. Their knowledge on their products and general helpfulness made going there a great experience. Highly recommend.
Kristen D: Highly recommend Boston Audio Design for window tint. This is the second car I’ve brought here. He did my tint fast and it looks amazing! 10/10!
Justin Halloran: I got my front and back windows tinted. They said it would take 2-4 weeks for the bubbles to go away. It took 5 months. They did an awful job, I had to go back 3 times. I also had a spoiler installed. They cut the spoiler without asking me if I wanted it to be cut. I didn't. I was not happy with that the owner said they used some special adhesive for the spoiler. The spoiler is now falling off. The owner won't admit to using the adhesive and said he would charge me 150$ to take it off and put it back on. He charged me 50 in the first place. He claimed it was just the 3m tape but it was clearly not. The owner is a drug addict. He will lie to you and steal every penny from you he can. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE oh and by the way I still have some bubbles.
Anthony Altenor: I like their services and they are fast, good job

Boston Audio Rentals: what do users think?
Daniel Matsunaga: They canceled my order last minute.Two days before our event on easter.
Coach EricaLee: I hired BAR for their cold sparks services for my daughters sweet 16 party! The gentleman who showed up was friendly, professional and he set everything up perfectly! Unfortunately, I had a huge issue with the man at the venue and he was extremely rude to the BAR employee. He sent him away and we didn’t get to use the cold sparks. The BAR. Company was so understanding and they even reimbursed me most of my money due to not being able to use the sparks even though it wasn’t their fault. I would also like to note that the venue guy screamed at the BAR gentleman while he was setting up the equipment and the gentleman handled it so well and was so professional the entire time. He even went above and beyond to try to explain to the extremely rude venue employee that the cold sparks were safe and thoroughly inspected. I would rate this place a 10 if I could! Highly recommended!
Brian Perry: Excellent place to rent audio equipment from! The team was able to accommodate my set up needed for a presentation (that was somewhat last minute!) with no issues. Very communicative and onsite early for set up. The team walked me through everything and ensured I was set up for a successful event. Absolutely will use them again!
irma alicka: I had the best experience with Boston Audio Rentals. My conference went perfect in every detail.All the equipment was the best of the best and the thechs were extremely skilled and very comfortable to work with. I emailed them and they were quick to respond they also called me and explained me every question I had! I’m so happy my conference went perfect in every detail and I’m going to keep working with them! Highly recommend.
Marc Rousso: Came through in the end. Ordered DJ equipment and wrong set came to venue. A new set was delivered after-hours and ultimately event turned out amazing. Thank you for making recovery.
CD Wedding 2022: We used Boston Audio Rentals to deliver and install a Pipe & Drape for our November 2022 wedding. Despite assuring us that they had been to our venue “many times” and would be able to provide the Pipe & Drape, they failed to properly set up the Pipe & Drape as agreed and have since failed to respond to our request to discuss the issues following the wedding (other than one email suggesting that the problems with the setup were somehow our fault). We had a terrible experience with this company and would strongly recommend not using them.Prior to our wedding we told Boston Audio Rentals that we needed the Pipe & Drape to hide the tables which would be preset prior to our ceremony. We gave them the required setup and a picture from our venue from another wedding with our desired setup months in advance (see attached), and they received a diagram from our venue. Based on this information Boston Audio Rentals told us how many sections of Pipe & Drape we needed.On the day of the wedding their employee showed up and had no knowledge of the setup we required and had to dig through his emails to find the diagram. Once he set it up, he called the groom (point of contact) and explained that he did not have enough sections to complete the desired setup (that Boston Audio Rentals had agreed to months prior) and that he was too far from their office to obtain more sections. As you can see from the picture attached, the setup does not conceal the back of the room at all and further the sheets were also sheer which both obviously completely undermine the entire point of the Pipe & Drape in concealing the tables.We expressed our dissatisfaction during the day of the wedding, and only after involving our venue coordinator was she able to reconstruct the sections in such a way that at least the back of the venue was somewhat obstructed, but far from the agreed setup that we had paid $1000 for (plus a premature tip that was given upon the employee’s arrival).We have since reached out to the company who has been almost entirely unresponsive and now suggests the problems were our fault. This experience was extremely upsetting on our wedding day. We also wanted to note that we had no other complaints about any other vendors from our wedding other than Boston Audio Rentals. We would strongly recommend avoiding this company not only for the bad outcome, but also their extremely disappointing customer service and lack of care in their final product.
Kayla Specht: BAR exceeding our expectations in all aspects. We called them last minute 3 weeks before an event in December needing A/V rental equipment for a conference meeting. For a company of 150 people for an all-hands meeting we needed a good solution pretty quickly. Not only did they answer us (a human responded immediately) on a Sunday, but they also provided prompt, professional service. I will be using BAR for any future A/V needs. Super thorough and communicative from planning, scheduling, to the day of our event. I can’t say enough good things. If you are looking for any audio and video rental needs please contact BAR. Thank you to Luv, Rigels, and their team for the excellence they delivered for us!
Kevin Shah: Hello, we used Boston Audio Rentals for our Conference they were great, we had a 3 day conference let me say I was impressed, not only they came in cheaper then the Hotel AV Company, but they gave us so much more. They added a few things which I was not aware we needed. There techs were highly skilled and very, very easy to work with. Now will we be using them for our next conference. Highly recommended.
Gillian Freed: I hire Boston Audio Rentals for my wedding in September, 2022.They had the best prices in the area and were very easy to plan with, but when the day came, they were an hour and a half late. Several of my guests had to help set up the equipment so that the ceremony could happen when it was supposed to.I rented a mic from them for the ceremony and the speeches and it seemed to be a directional mic (or was on that setting), which is NOT good for talking. A couple of the people making speeches decided to not use it because it was so unreliable.Overall, not ideal, but the celebration happened anyway.
Samantha Maroshick: We recently used BAVR's services for our 18th Annual Harvard Women in Business Intercollegiate Business Convention. Tech logistics were the main area that I was concerned about going into our entire planning process, as they are obviously so crucial to the flow of the event, and the BAVR team was absolutely wonderful to work with. We will definitely be recommending BAVR future IBC committees, and cannot thank them enough for working with us so flexibly throughout the past few months.
Lisa Ting: BAR was wonderful - very responsive on email and the technician was on time and super helpful. Thanks!
Shawn Logan: We rented Boston Audio Rentals for our wedding for their cold sparkler system and photobooth. Unfortunately the cold sparklers never went off but the company was quick to refund us after I brought It up. The photobooth was a hit with the guests and the employee followed up by giving us printouts of every picture taken. The only other frustration with the company is the communication as I often felt I was chasing them more than I should be. Would probably use them again if they improve their communication
Rita Abbo: Boston Audio did a great job for our Board meeting. A couple of days before the meeting, they called and reviewed what was needed to ensure everything was covered. They were great to work with!
Rachael Slattery: We hosted an outdoor film event for 100+ people and it went flawlessly. The tech was very helpful and friendly. Everything was set up and ready to go with plenty of time. We would definitely hire Boston Audio Rentals again.
Monica Verity: Boston Audio Rentals had AMAZING customer service, prompt responses and were fabulous to work with. The day of our event the tech was very knowledgeable and we did not have to worry about a thing! I would highly recommend them!
Abby Pieger: Boston Audio Rentals has helped our University out so many times with programs and events - often at the last minute. They are always wonderful to communicate with, provide an excellent service, and do their best to make sure your event runs as smoothly as possible. As long as I am in the area, I will never choose to use another company for the A/V needs we have.
Will Runge: We hired BAR to provide audio equipment for a large outdoor/indoor wedding at the Crane Estate in Ipswich last week since our DJ was coming from out of town, and they did a fantastic job. Sunny was super easy to work with and very responsive, the setup was on time, and the technician who we asked to stayed on site to move equipment throughout the night did a great job getting things set up and sounding good. I also think they were very reasonably priced. Would absolutely recommend them for anyone needing audio/dj/lighting gear for a Boston area wedding.
Ricky Hai: I have worked with these guys a few times. They are awesome and always exceed the expectations of party. Definitely will be working with them again in the future. Thanks y’all
leo G: Sonny is great to deal with and always have rentals available! Fair price, professionals. Have used them couple time and will continue. Boston Audio Rentals keep it up. Thank you guys!!
Ramzy: I hired Boston Audio Rentals for a conference entertainment package, renting an entire DJ set up with set up and break down. I couldn’t have been more impressed. The team showed up on time, everything was taped down and crisp. They even added a facade with beautiful lights that my client loved. I couldn’t be happier with the level of service, professionalism, and attention to details. I’ve been in the business for 17 years so my expectations are high. Boston Audio Rentals delivered an above and beyond product. Thank you!!!
KG Events & Design Office: Boston Audio Rentals team did such a wonderful job for one of our wedding groups this past weekend! We worked specifically with Darren on the couple's big day and he was extremely helpful and ensured that the cold sparklers went off at just the right times. He executed exactly what the couple wanted. You could feel the energy the cold sparklers brought to the event and everyone was obsessing over how wonderful they were. We look forward to working with Boston Audio Rentals again!

Cambridge Sound and Security Inc.: what do users think?
Ken K: Great service and great people that work with you installing my device for the car
John Downs: The owner, Herc, was super helpful in helping me choose a remote start system, his customer service was exceptional. He was able to fit me in within the week and personally made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. I would definitely go back for more installs.
Frank F: Herc is the best. Fair prices
Sumit Bbardwaj: The best place to get headlights and car systems done
Ronald Couming: Excellent service. Same day appointment, in and out under an hour.
Bobby Roby: The person referred to as Boss is a liar and bad business experience all around. If you want to waste your time--call this place
Dennis Invencio: Had a brief conversation on the phone with an issue i was having, the manager of all people took the time to give me step by step on what to try and diagnose the issue. Turned out it was just a blown fuse. I never actually made it into the shop but i own 3 vehicles and when i get around to having an alarm or stereo installed im 100% going here. Its getting harder and harder to get this type of help out there and im glad i called them.
Kevin Torres: Very professional friendly took care of me on the spot
Angela Chin: Came here today to get a stereo installation… the owner of the place is professional and polite. If I can rate this more than a 5 star I give this place 10 stars. I recommend anyone who needs to get their stereo installed or subroofers. Him and his employees get the job done right and fast.
CR Masonry Services LLC 857-452-5799: Very professional amazing prices
Bobby “R” Jackson: Awesome work.
Galen Lynch: Very capable repairs for a fair price. I've only been here once but they were very honest about whether different solutions to my stereo problems would be worth the money.
Hooper Picasso: Came here because I seen this place had a 4.9 star rating and good reviews. so I booked an appointment from the owner and came in for my subwoofer installation and a steering wheel control install at 10am. I came in and not one employee came out to say how am I doing. I waited about 30 minutes for a guy to finally come help me. After telling them I had an appointment with the receipt paper the owner gave me, the employees looked confused because the owner is lazy and didn’t put me on the schedule. 40 minutes go by and I still haven’t handed the keys to these guys. Finally after the scheduling was fixed after they called the owner I told them I didn’t want the steering wheel control install because they were finessing me to pay $125 for that. So instead of paying a whopping $325, I was now paying $150 to install the subs. A reasonable price especially since it fit my schedule and wasn’t like other places upcharging $200+ for subs installation. After asking the employee when it could be done the employee said “I don’t know, We close at 6, we’ll call you by then” (Very professional wink, wink). While the owner told me it’s a 10-2pm appointment, so now I know they don’t go by their words. 2pm kicks in and I get a call from them telling me I have to pay $225 for the installation because they are opening my radio which costs an extra $75 LOL. I already had bad vibes from this place the minute I walked in & knew they didn’t deserve my business. This place is like any other car sounds store. Plain Ripoffs with uncharged prices from lazy workers. I don’t know how this place has such good reviews. Don’t come here you’ll waste your time like I did and hard earned money.
Jr Concepcion: great shop,the owner herk is awesome,I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP
Carine Roland: A+ service and everything. Herc is truly an amazing guy and goes above and beyond. Amazing installation on a radio and back camera with very reasonable prices. Recommend this place 100%!
Michelle Jones: Great customer service!
Dana Spencer: If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Very knowledgable people about sound upgrades and are more than fair with pricing. Went for a subwoofer upgrade but my system still lacked low end frequencies generated by the subwoofer so they installed a bass restoration kit which fixed everything. I couldn't be any happier. Definitely sending friends and family their way.
Vinny A: Awesome service and very accommodating. Herc and the crew are very knowledgeable and transparent. True professionals.
mustangcircut: Install was perfect. Great price fair and honest!!! Thanks for the great experience!!!!
P: Always greeted with a smile
denis rocha Rocha: Nice person
