Without traffic, the drive from the city of La Mirada, runs about 20 minutes. There is no DJ Custom Audio location in La Mirada. We run one shop, in South Gate, and everything happens there: installs, demos, gear pickup and Payment Plan paperwork.

As an incorporated city in Los Angeles County, La Mirada has plenty of daily drivers who put serious hours behind the wheel, which is exactly when better sound pays off. Coming from the Gateway Cities (Southeast LA County) area, you head west to reach us.

Car audio

Here is what La Mirada drivers usually ask us for. The work includes alarms and remote start (Viper only), for security and a cool cabin on hot days; amplifiers, to power speakers and subs cleanly; GPS and lighting, to round out the build; head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so maps, calls and music run through a proper screen instead of a phone mount; and backup cameras and dash cams, for safer parking and a record of the road. 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. Daily drivers, work trucks, boats and Can-Am machines all come through the bay. 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 La Mirada buyers come for it. Categories include lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), DJ controllers, turntables and media players, subwoofers, powered speakers and mixers, along with cables and accessories, cases and stands, fog, haze and bubble effects, amps and processing and microphones and wireless systems. Brands we carry include Shure, ADJ, QSC, Mackie, Technical Pro, Pioneer DJ, RCF, Electro-Voice, JBL and Chauvet. Common La Mirada requests: a first controller and speakers, a bigger PA for a growing church, or lighting to finish a setup.

Packages save guesswork. A DJ lighting kit and a starter DJ setup are two we build often, matched so every piece works together. Everything here is for sale: 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

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 La Mirada customers shop in person with us. You can reserve gear by phone and pick it up at the counter, so nothing is sold out when you arrive. You can hear the difference between speakers and subs on our demo displays before you spend a dollar. You can hold a DJ controller or mixer, test a wireless mic, and compare powered speakers side by side. You get an honest recommendation, including when a cheaper option is the right call.
