We brought our truck in hoping to upgrade the radio and within an hour, it was all complete including having our phones synced for us before we hit the road. Great shop. Great customer service. Highly recommended!

A few days ago I was quoted $65 for labor and $25 for a mounting bracket for a radio installation. Today I was quoted $125 over the phone. I should have shopped around more, but I wanted to get the work done right away, so I bit the bullet and sent my daughter down with her car. They charged her an additional $25 for a harness because her current radio is aftermarket. I am not pleased about being charged 2/3 more than I expected to pay. It’s my own fault for choosing this shop even when they told me the price would be higher, but their people should also be more accurate in quoting the work they do *every single day.* So much for “shopping local” and “ supporting small business during lockdowns.”

People need to understand that there are many scams out there when getting car audio systems installed. Burbank sounds are very trustworthy and back their work at competitive pricing. I highly recommend Burbank for all your car audio needs! The owner Sin is a stand up great guy ! He holds his staff to his beliefs and morals and will do whatever they can to make the customer happy. Don’t believe any of the negative reviews! They’re all fake or from people that don’t have a clue! Burbank is the most honest shop out there

Had an old pioneer CD stereo from 2000 that was installed by circuit city that had finally started to take a cr@p and it was making me pull my hair out. Walked in told them I wanted a new pioneer with Bluetooth asked a few questions and they said no problem!!! The guy who installed my new radio was very nice and did the install in about an hour and a half. Very quick and clean job. The new headunit sounds amazing compared to the old radio even with the stock speakers that are 30 years old!!! They include a one year warranty so I can rest assured about any issues. These guys are the go to place, I’m a very happy customer could give a thousand stars if I could… thanks again Burbank Sounds you guys rock. Made a new loyal customer

I arrived, asked the nice woman in the office some basic questions, how long does installation take, do you have inventory for my vehicle, etc and she said someone would answer my questions. I waited 10 to 15 minutes and then left. No one ever came to talk to me. There were no other customers, Nono e in the installation bay. Theirs might be the best place in the world but if no one is there to help me the. It’s not very helpful.

Got a stereo installed 5 years ago. I could not get my new phone to pair so I stopped by and they spent about 15 minutes helping me to pair it. I offered to pay them and they said I was good to go. Very Professional.

I found Burbank Sound by accident. Sinhue and his team listened, and then exceeded my expectations all the way around. It's rare to find no BS, worldclass customer service, and quality product at reasonable prices. You've got a customer for life. I highly recommend Burbank Sound to anyone looking for auto sound or alarm upgrades. Thank you. A great way to start the new year!

Burbank Sounds rules! Got a wireless CarPlay head unit, backup cam, and replaced all the speakers in my 08 4Runner. Sin gave me a great deal, told me when the car would be ready, and finished right on time. The install was super clean. The screen feels like it came with the car. Sin even adjusted the EQ himself to make things sound as good as possible. I’ll be coming back for all my future needs on the truck.

I lived in silence for 9 months with a broken radio in my car because I was struggling to find a replacement that had the features I wanted and wouldn’t break the bank. After struggling to find an affordable radio or even a place that could properly install them I finally found Burbank Sounds. The staff is super knowledgeable and kind, they did a great job of explaining to me what was needed for my radio to have the features I wanted and offered me options within my budget. The turnaround time for parts and installation was so fast they were able to get everything up and running the very next day. My new radio works very well and he did a great job of explaining how to use it before I drove away. Burbank Sounds, thank you so much for this!

I recently had a disappointing experience with Burbank Sounds while trying to install an Android audio system in my Audi. I was initially promised a same-day installation, which was not a rush for me, but it ended up being completed the next afternoon. After picking up my car and paying the fee, I discovered that only the front speakers were working. When I returned to address the issue, the owner was unhelpful and directed me to speak with the installer. Despite leaving my car for further inspection, the situation only worsened. I was informed incorrectly that my radio system could only support two speakers, contradicting the installation instructions that clearly stated it supports a 4X45w system. The installer seemed unfamiliar with the setup and suggested unnecessary changes, like rewiring the system or adding a new amplifier. Frustrated by the lack of expertise and concern for customer satisfaction, I took my car to AI & Ed's Autosound. For an additional fee, they corrected the wiring and fixed the issue, which Burbank Sounds had repeatedly failed to understand. If you value quality work and customer service for your car audio needs, I recommend avoiding Burbank Sounds and going directly to AI & Ed's Autosound. They offer better prices and actually know what they are doing.

Not great work. Took several trips to get install. Then system stopped working after 6 months. Bringing it to a different shop even tho it's under warranty with Burbank Sound because I don't trust their work or ethics. Despite the owners quick and snarky response.... I WAS a real customer that got sub-par work done at Burbank Sound and was taking the time to warn others without writing a novel review with detailed specifics which isn't necessary. Everyone can choose to use this vendor if they'd like ... but they have every right to know that as a past customer I was not satisfied with the work, staff treatment or costs ... and I am taking my car to my regular shop to have them fix Burbank Sound's work despite the work being under warranty and Burbank Sound being closer to my house ...... I'd rather drive further for good quality work and service.....which I did not personally receive at Burbank Sound.

Was trying to find a local stereo & tint shop that deals with add-on accessories like underglow LED lights, and I'm glad I found Burbank Sounds! Other locations quoted me 700$ even though the kit I bought is fairly "cheap" (retail price). I knew I wasn't tripping when I found online forums talking about what the price should be. I went here and was quoted 300 flat for the installation, which seemed very reasonable—and quite frankly better than the other place in Noho. My lights work perfect and no wires are in my face. !!!!!

They did an AMAZING job with hooking up my Kicker 12” subwoofer and amp in my 23 Honda Accord. Sounds amazing and very clean install. I will be coming back soon to upgrade my door speakers.

Very fast and professional service, my 3 channel dash cam took around 2 hours to install. No wires were shown in any way, everything was neat and tucked. Camera works great, I was even advised by the installer with some set up tips. Customer service was welcoming, and hospitable. To top it all off, the price was very reasonable. Definitely worth a 5 star review, and would come back again.

I had my stereo installed at **Burbank Sounds** (1321 Magnolia Blvd, Burbank, CA 91506), and I can honestly say they deserve straight A’s across the board. The **quality of the equipment** they sold me was **A+**, and the **customer care** was also **A+** — they treated me with real respect and attention from start to finish. Their **availability for questions** was **A+** as well; any time I had a concern or curiosity about the setup, they took the time to walk me through it clearly. When it came to **after-install tweaks**, they went above and beyond — I’d give them an **A++** for making sure every little detail sounded perfect. The **installer’s knowledge** was exceptional (**A++**), and the **professionalism** during the whole process was equally impressive (**A++**). On top of all that, the **friendliness of the staff** stood out — definitely **A++**. The three people I encountered were all genuinely nice, patient, and more than willing to answer my questions. It’s rare these days to find a shop that delivers this kind of quality, care, and honesty at such a fair price. **Burbank Sounds** is a great value for the money, and I’ll absolutely be back when it’s time for future upgrades to my Dodge Ram 1500.

Brought my 2013 Prius in last week because... I recently got a new hybrid battery and shocks which wasn't cheap, so this car had better last me an extra five years or so. As such, I figured it was time to finally replace the OEM stereo. I honestly was just shopping around for quotes but when they told me they could have it done same day, I said why not? The quote was about what I expected and he even gave me a little bit of a deal. On a whim I said how about adding a backup camera? And they made it happen. I paid a little more because I wanted a specific stereo but they didn't try to upsell me - I actually wanted to spend a bit more on some data cables and he showed me why I didn't need them in my car, so I got to save a bit too. Everything came out looking clean and functioning well, and Geico is happy I have a backup cam now. Highly recommend, quality shop.
