Car Audio & DJ Equipment Near Wilmington

From Wilmington, our South Gate store is about 15.3 miles by road, roughly 24 minutes in light traffic. It is one counter, one address (8696 Atlantic Ave, South Gate, CA 90280), and a team that does both car audio and DJ equipment. There is no DJ Custom Audio location in Wilmington. We run one shop, in South Gate, and everything happens there: installs, demos, gear pickup and Payment Plan paperwork.

Plenty of our customers come from Wilmington and other Los Angeles neighborhoods, usually with a daily driver that deserves better sound. On a map, Wilmington falls in the South Bay & Harbor part of Los Angeles County, and South Gate is north of it.

Car audio

Here is what Wilmington drivers usually ask us for. The work includes backup cameras and dash cams, for safer parking and a record of the road; 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; GPS and lighting, to round out the build; and alarms and remote start (Viper only), for security and a cool cabin on hot days. 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. We work on cars, trucks, boats and powersports like Can-Am machines. We stick to sound, security, cameras and lighting, and we only put in gear we trust.

DJ equipment

Wilmington DJs, bands, churches and families shop our DJ and pro audio floor. On the floor you will find mixers, turntables and media players, lighting (wash, moving heads, lasers), DJ controllers, amps and processing, microphones and wireless systems and cases and stands, plus powered speakers, subwoofers, fog, haze and bubble effects and cables and accessories. You will see QSC, Chauvet, Pioneer DJ, RCF and Electro-Voice on the shelves, plus ADJ, Mackie, Technical Pro, Shure and JBL. Common Wilmington requests: a first controller and speakers, a bigger PA for a growing church, or lighting to finish a setup.

Not sure where to start? Ask about our equipment packages: a church or venue PA, a quinceañera or wedding party system and a starter DJ setup are popular picks. To be clear, this is gear sales: 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 15.3 miles from Wilmington by road (12.8 miles in a straight line), and the shop is north of Wilmington. Without traffic the drive takes about 24 minutes; rush hour can add a lot more, so check your maps app before you leave. The usual route from Wilmington uses I-710 (Long Beach Freeway), then surface streets such as East Del Amo Boulevard and 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

Why drive in from Wilmington instead of ordering online? You can hold a DJ controller or mixer, test a wireless mic, and compare powered speakers side by side. You can see how a head unit screen will look, and ask whether it fits your dash. 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.
