Car Audio & DJ Equipment Near Glassell Park

Glassell Park customers make the 16.9-mile trip to DJ Custom Audio in South Gate for car audio installs and DJ equipment they can see, hear and take home the same day. Without traffic, the drive from Glassell Park, a neighborhood of Los Angeles, runs about 23 minutes. There is no DJ Custom Audio location in Glassell Park. We run one shop, in South Gate, and everything happens there: installs, demos, gear pickup and Payment Plan paperwork.

Glassell Park is part of Los Angeles, and like most Los Angeles neighborhoods it runs on driving, so what you hear in the car matters. Coming from the Central & South Los Angeles area, you head south to reach us.

Car audio

Car audio is half of what we do, and Glassell Park drivers keep the bay busy. The work includes head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so maps, calls and music run through a proper screen instead of a phone mount; alarms and remote start (Viper only), for security and a cool cabin on hot days; speaker upgrades, which fix muddy factory sound more than anything else; full sound systems, planned around your car and budget; and subwoofers and enclosures, for bass you can feel without rattling the whole car. 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 stick to sound, security, cameras and lighting, and we only put in gear we trust.

DJ equipment

If you DJ, run sound for a church, or are putting together a system for a family party in Glassell Park, we sell the equipment to do it. Categories include DJ controllers, fog, haze and bubble effects, subwoofers, powered speakers, turntables and media players and cables and accessories, along with mixers, cases and stands, lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), amps and processing and microphones and wireless systems. Brands we carry include RCF, JBL, ADJ, Chauvet, QSC, Mackie, Electro-Voice, Pioneer DJ, Technical Pro and Shure. Common Glassell Park 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 church or venue PA, a DJ lighting kit or a backyard party PA, so you walk out with gear that works together. To be clear, this is gear sales: no rentals, no DJs for hire, and no DJ equipment repair. Ask Joe on the DJ side about setup and software like Serato; he works with this gear himself.

The drive

DJ Custom Audio is about 16.9 miles from Glassell Park by road (11.7 miles in a straight line), and the shop is south of Glassell Park. Without traffic the drive takes about 23 minutes; rush hour can add a lot more, so check your maps app before you leave. The usual route from Glassell Park uses CA-2 (Glendale Freeway), I-5 (Golden State Freeway) and I-710 (Long Beach Freeway), then surface streets such as Firestone Boulevard for the final miles.

The last stretch brings you to Atlantic Avenue at Firestone Boulevard in South Gate. The shop is at 8696 Atlantic Ave, South Gate, CA 90280, next to the 7-Eleven. Parking is on site, and a shopping center sits across the street, so you can grab food while an install is underway.

Why make the drive

There are good reasons Glassell Park customers shop in person with us. You can see how a head unit screen will look, and ask whether it fits your dash. You can hold a DJ controller or mixer, test a wireless mic, and compare powered speakers side by side. You can hear the difference between speakers and subs on our demo displays before you spend a dollar. You talk to the people who will actually install your system, not a call center.
