If you are in the city of Torrance and want car audio or DJ and pro audio gear from a shop that lets you listen first, DJ Custom Audio is about 18.5 miles away at 8696 Atlantic Ave, South Gate, CA 90280. Plan on roughly 27 minutes when the freeways are moving. To be clear about how we work: DJ Custom Audio has a single store at 8696 Atlantic Ave, South Gate, CA 90280. Torrance customers drive in, and we make that trip worth it with gear on display, installs in our bay and straight answers.

Torrance is a city in Los Angeles County where a lot of people live in their cars between work, school and family, so audio upgrades get real use. Torrance is in the South Bay & Harbor area; our shop is northeast of Torrance.

Car audio

If you drive in Torrance, these are the car audio jobs we handle every week. The work includes alarms and remote start (Viper only), for security and a cool cabin on hot days; full sound systems, planned around your car and budget; head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so maps, calls and music run through a proper screen instead of a phone mount; speaker upgrades, which fix muddy factory sound more than anything else; 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. Tony keeps the bay focused on sound, security, cameras and lighting, done right the first time.

DJ equipment

The other half of the shop is DJ and pro audio equipment for sale, and a lot of Torrance buyers come for it. On the floor you will find fog, haze and bubble effects, cases and stands, turntables and media players, amps and processing, mixers, powered speakers and microphones and wireless systems, plus lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), cables and accessories, DJ controllers and subwoofers. Brands we carry include JBL, ADJ, Chauvet, Pioneer DJ, Technical Pro, Electro-Voice, Mackie, QSC, Shure and RCF. A DJ from Torrance upgrading to a new controller, a church adding wireless mics, and a family building a party system can all be helped in one visit.

We also put together equipment packages, such as a backyard party PA, a church or venue 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.

The drive

DJ Custom Audio is about 18.5 miles from Torrance by road (13.0 miles in a straight line), and the shop is northeast of Torrance. Without traffic the drive takes about 27 minutes; rush hour can add a lot more, so check your maps app before you leave. The usual route from Torrance uses I-110 (Harbor Freeway), CA-91 (Gardena Freeway) and I-710 (Long Beach Freeway), then surface streets such as Torrance Boulevard and Firestone Boulevard for the final miles.

You will end up at Atlantic Avenue and Firestone Boulevard. Pull into the lot next to the 7-Eleven at 8696 Atlantic Ave, South Gate, CA 90280; parking is on site, and there is a shopping center across the street.

Why make the drive

Why drive in from Torrance instead of ordering online? You can reserve gear by phone and pick it up at the counter, so nothing is sold out when you arrive. You talk to the people who will actually install your system, not a call center. 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.
