Damian took care of me again! I upgraded my speakers in my 23 RDX. The sound is amazing. A few months ago I went to 22 inch wheels. Damian helped me pick the perfect custom wheels for my ride. I m so happy with his communication and service. I will keep coming back. Thanks Advanced Car Stereo

The staff at advanced car stereo did an amazing job with my 2021 Silverado. They built me a custom Center console enclosure for my Rockford Fosgate T2 16 subwoofer. They also installed the Kenwood Excelon DMX 1057XR and did an alternator upgrade. They are the most knowledgeable business I ve had the pleasure of working with. Their staff was friendly, professional, and accommodating for the things I wanted done. I wouldn t have trusted anyone else with my truck. I highly recommend visiting their location to service all your car audio needs. Thank you again.

I initially wrote this review, but the length was that of a short novel, so instead I'm electing to summarize to the best of my ability what transpired at Advanced Car Stereo.Over the course of 4 visits, my approval went from being absolutely disgusted with this place, insisting never to return, to being overjoyed with the work that was done. Virtually all of the credit is to be given to the owner, Ramin, who from a place of humility and great responsibility, recognized a problem and did everything to take care of it. Kudos to Ramin for getting his team back on the right page and doing a great install job! Because of Ramin's business sense and responsibility to exercising great business practices, I will gladly return here for my vehicle needs.It literally went from the worst install job I've ever seen, to every single one of my concerns being addressed and fixed.Thanks Ramin!

If it is your first time going to get subwoofers or audio equipment installed. This is the place to go!Soon after receiving a decent size paycheck i had called up Advanced Car Stereo and spoke with a guy named damian, and had asked if i could come in to get a subwoofer installed in a 2020 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. And Although it was roughly 3 hours till closing he managed to get me into the shop last minute.Upon arrival i had quickly got in touch with Damian and the owner of the establishment Ramin. Right off the bat Ramin gave welcomed me with a smile and a passion for quality audio. And had made clear he does not want to just focus on any one thing, his main objective is to provide the customer with an "Experience" Which he demonstrated really well with allowing me to hear his customized tesla audio setup. Before that opportunity i hadn't cared much for vocals or high pitched instruments in music. But Ramin really helped me appreciate the depth that surround sound like presensce brings in the music.Having had the tesla demo Ramin proceeded to explain the impact on sound quality that would take place if a speaker is provided a wall around it to keep the sound facing a particular way. Shortly after that i also had the opportunity to go over my expectations on what i was looking for with Damian. And after some demonstrations of 2 10"s in his wifes car and car and 2 12"s in the shop i already knew i was going to haveto get the that setup of 2 12'sHowever come the time to discuss finances and equipment, i had let Damian know how much i was working with which was roughly half a thousand. And i had absolutely no idea how expensive a system was prior to walking into the shop. But he let me know at the time of checking out the shop speakers and while at the desk. That kind of system would be more in the 2000 to 3000 range depending on if i was going to get some extra mid range and tweeter speakers. Having gone with the 3000 route he helped me get on a financing plan with Zero interest which was definitely music to my ears since i had no idea how much everything would be together. But Damian definitely broke it down in detail at some point regarding the Amp, Subwoofer, Box, Wire, Labor, Etc cost at some point.Now frankly if it was before or after discussing finances but Damian had also given me the choice between coaxial speakers or pairs of component mid range and tweeter speakers for the roof. And having gone with the latter i couldn't be happier after he brought to my attention how going with the individual speakers would provide better clarity. but with the drawback of reduced volume in the end. Which i'm completely content with.With all that being said. In about a couple of hours the car was out the shop and Bumpin'!I was informed that at the time i was going to be using a provisional enclosure for the subwoofer at the time, which had a single port. That said the best was yet to come since Damian had mentioned they were going to be having the box dual ported enclosure made within less than a week. (Which is the one shown in the photos) and during that instance of the use of the provisional box. It was not much of a draw back given he had also let me know i need to break in the subs for the week and keep the bass knob roughly half way to prevent the subwoofers from being burnt out since they were brand new.But now that i just came back earlier today, i got the new enclosure. It's by far better than expected. Not only did Damian Hook me up with a pair of high quality Audio Control Spike Series 12 inch Subwoofers to have been thrown in that solid dual port box. But that Lc-1.1500 he got put in there drives those subs with no problem whatsoever.I can hear and feel low frequencies i never thought i would have the pleasure of hearing and feelingAnd i have the customer satisfaction of knowing not only am i in good hands but i can ask as many questions as i'de like and the people at Advanced Car Stereo will always have an answer.Thank you Guys for the amazing System! And Welcome to anyone new to the establishment!

Great place to have anything electronic installed!! Ramin and his crew will take good care of you. I had my Tesla head up display installed by Advanced Car Stereo a while back and was a returning customer when I added an aftermarket horn to my Rivian. As usual they did a great job. Very recommendable place to go!

Amazing place gave me realistic prices on Good product. Damian is a great employee and he helped me out a lot gave me good prices was honest with me and they were honest on installment time they didn t tell me an hour just to satisfy me and ending up taking longer they told me the time and they were exact on. And it is very true when they say The cheaper the price the cheaper the equipment.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Advanced Car Stereo in Riverside, and I must say, the entire experience was absolutely phenomenal! From start to finish, their team of experts went above and beyond to deliver exceptional customer service and technical expertise that truly exceeded my expectations.I was particularly impressed with their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring that every aspect of my Tesla S Model to perfection.One thing I noticed was how meticulous the Advanced Car Stereo team was at every step of the process for tinting my windows. Every detail was carefully considered and executed with precision. The finished product was flawless!In addition to their technical expertise, what really stood out to me was their integrity and honesty, which are rare traits in today's world of fast-paced consumerism. I felt completely comfortable and confident in their recommendations and advice, and I never once felt pressured or rushed to make a decision.Overall, I couldn't be more impressed with Advanced Car Stereo, and I would confidently recommend them to anyone looking to take their car to the next level. They truly are an outstanding company, and the drive from San Diego to Riverside was absolutely worth it!

Ended up taking it to advance auto and the got everything installed correctly in just 5 hours10/10 will be going back. Thank you Robert for being super helpful.

Purchased a Kenwood head unit and amp for a stereo upgrade. It sounded worse than before; like a transistor radio without any bass. When I turned up the volume, pure distortion. I was told that s the best they could do unless I bought a sub woofer. In addition, they left all the boxes and trash in my car from the install. I went to another shop and discovered that the wiring was wrong. The other shop rewired the stereo and amp and it sounded great! I could not in good conscience recommend this place! Never going back again.

I have to give full credit to Jason (sales) and Ramin (owner) for their customer service. They took a frustrating situation and knocked it out of the park with their response.Advanced Car Stereo installed a new sound system in my Silverado back in early December. Unfortunately the new head unit was defective and after days of troubleshooting attempts, I eventually lost faith in the particular brand of head unit. Understanding my frustration, they gave me full credit towards a KENWOOD DMX1057R, even though I didn t keep the original packaging for the other head unit.Sometimes things don t go to plan - that s life. They worked to troubleshoot some feedback/static and got the new system functioning absolutely perfectly; sound quality is now ridiculously good in my truck. Ramin told me on day one of the troubleshooting that he strives to make every customer a life long customer and he certainly has one in me.

Damian at Advanced Stereo is awesome. He is straight up and forward with everything. Explains if an interface or module may or may not work. Pricing is fair. Hooked up my own unit, connected the factory USB port, steering wheel controls and factory back-up camera. Installation is clean and professional looking. They actually showed the mess that another shop left behind prior to them beginig the installation. Definitely recommend this place and talking to Damian. He will take care of you.

Tony from Advanced Car Stereo Riverside hooked me up. He was able to cut me a good deal and they got my subwoofer and amp installed in about two hours. The work is really good just make sure that you get everything EVERYTHING in writing and double check to make sure what you bought is what they actually install
