Car audio

If you drive in North Tustin, these are the car audio jobs we handle every week. The work includes GPS and lighting, to round out the build; amplifiers, to power speakers and subs cleanly; subwoofers and enclosures, for bass you can feel without rattling the whole car; speaker upgrades, which fix muddy factory sound more than anything else; and backup cameras and dash cams, for safer parking and a record of the road. From this distance, most customers book installs ahead of time so the car goes straight into the bay.

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 North Tustin buyers come for it. We stock lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), fog, haze and bubble effects, cases and stands, cables and accessories, turntables and media players, amps and processing, subwoofers and microphones and wireless systems, and DJ controllers, powered speakers and mixers. You will see JBL, Technical Pro, Chauvet, Pioneer DJ and Mackie on the shelves, plus QSC, RCF, ADJ, Electro-Voice and Shure. A DJ from North Tustin upgrading to a new controller, a church adding wireless mics, and a family building a party system can all be helped in one visit.

Not sure where to start? Ask about our equipment packages: a quinceañera or wedding party system, a DJ lighting kit and a backyard party PA are popular picks. We sell DJ gear only: 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.
