We run one shop, in South Gate, and everything happens there: installs, demos, gear pickup and Payment Plan paperwork.

Fullerton is its own incorporated city in Orange County, and its drivers know the routine: long commutes, freeway noise and a factory stereo that was never great to begin with. Fullerton is in the Orange County area; our shop is west of Fullerton.

Car audio

If you drive in Fullerton, these are the car audio jobs we handle every week. The work includes full sound systems, planned around your car and budget; subwoofers and enclosures, for bass you can feel without rattling the whole car; amplifiers, to power speakers and subs cleanly; GPS and lighting, to round out the build; and head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so maps, calls and music run through a proper screen instead of a phone mount. For customers coming this far, we suggest calling ahead so the install bay is ready when you arrive.

We're an authorized JL Audio and Alpine dealer, and we also carry Kicker, Focal and Pioneer. A lot of installs get done the same day. Bought something online already? We install customer-supplied gear too. Trucks, boats and Can-Am powersports are welcome along with daily drivers. We keep it to sound, security, cameras and lighting, and we only put in gear we'd run in our own rides.

DJ equipment

The other half of the shop is DJ and pro audio equipment for sale, and a lot of Fullerton buyers come for it. Categories include cases and stands, microphones and wireless systems, amps and processing, powered speakers, subwoofers and lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), along with turntables and media players, mixers, cables and accessories, fog, haze and bubble effects and DJ controllers. Brands we carry include Mackie, Technical Pro, RCF, Pioneer DJ, JBL, Shure, Electro-Voice, ADJ, QSC and Chauvet. Common Fullerton requests: a first controller and speakers, a bigger PA for a growing church, or lighting to finish a setup.

We also put together equipment packages, such as a DJ lighting kit, a backyard party PA or a quinceañera or wedding party system, so you walk out with gear that works together. Everything here is for sale: no rentals, no DJs for hire, and no DJ equipment repair. Joe will help you set up your gear and get Serato running before you leave.
