Custom Auto Sound By Stereo Pad

I needed an alarm for my vehicle ASAP.They began installation almost immediatelyAdvised me on which model best suited my needsPrice was reasonable, in fast a little less than anticipatedThey instructed me with all the advanced features.I have had several auto alarms installed over the past ten years. No one else, provided this level of instructions.As others have noted, the staff is knowledgeable.Also they have audio installation.After listening to their audio studio, I am considering upgrading the sound system in my car.

Ok, so I bought a VW and came in motivated to get a new system with possible navigation combo. I was considering some Google models (they dont carry, he said if i insisted he could order it). I haven't used the system so I don't know faults but he trashed the entire Google ran systems. Which, I have no problem with (if it's truly his views on products) , but instead of showing me what he recommended in his store or possible ordering something he just rode me off. He lost buissness necause tge truth is if he worked me me and recommended a "reliable" system. I just walked out. Smh

These guys are the best! This is my second vehicle I have trusted them with and will keep coming back. The staff is knowledgeable and patient with my questions. I told them what my goals and budget were and they once again pulled it off. Couldn't be happier!! If you're shopping around for a car stereo system shop these guys last, I won't go anywhere else.

Jason has been doing car stereos since 1978. That's a LOT of experience. He's had this business for 40 years!I had a specific budget that I could work with to install a new stereo in my newly acquired 2011 Traverse. I wanted Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, CD/DVD, and a backup camera. Jason spec-ed out a system that was exactly what I wanted in my budget of $950. He's very flexible, laid back, no pressure sales. Very helpful and very knowledgable. To give perspective, I went to another car stereo installer and the price quoted me was $1500 for a comparable system. That same place also told me that aftermarket backup cameras do not have the curving guidelines like many of the factory backup cameras do, just a straight line. When I asked Jason about this, he said that they do in fact exist, he has one on his Jeep, and that they've been around for a year now. Guess what I have for a backup camera?After the install, which took only 3 hours, his tech gave me a brief training on how to operate the system. The backup camera is kind of wonky because I have only a temporary license "plate" so they said as soon as I get my real plates, to bring it in and they will adjust it. The camera needs a solid surface to install.I highly recommend their services and products.5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money.4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business.3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it.2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money.1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

I am trouble to leave this review as I have had two other experiences with this company and they were very good. I brought my 2005 Ford excursion to them to upgrade the stereo system including a new head unit, back up camera, completely new speakers, and an alarm with remote start. Jason urge me to go with Phoenix gold as I have done before and that is his preferred brand. I asked him to replace all the door speakers and the two speakers in the third row area and add a powered subwoofer. The head unit I was presented was $650 yet online could be purchased for 400. The door speakers were within $10 of retail. The installer told Jason that there wasn't any speakers in the third row so they didn't install them. Come to find out it was because the installer didn't wanna do the work there is in fact a third row of speakers it just takes a lot more work to get there. Upon finding out this information I was told that it wouldn't add any value to the system . I believe they are incorrect and regardless of their opinion it is what I asked for yet was never completed. It's almost like they talked me out of doing the work because it was "difficult".My other issues stem from the professionalism of the installers. At first I got my truck back after they did the first round of work and the head unit was installed too deep to the dash and you can see the scratch marks they left in the dash. You can also see the tooling marks they used to pop the dash open. Upon calling this out I was told they were there beforehand ...photos prove otherwise.I returned the truck to them because we were having problems with the steering wheel controls not working. Come to find out they were never installed. Their lead installer told me that the part didn't exist for my truck... Crutchfield said otherwise. I brought this up to them he looked at the research on the website and admitted he was wrong begrudgingly. I asked him for a high-quality back up camera did not say anything about sparing cost and wanting discounted stuff and I got literally the cheapest quality camera I have ever seen. They did however credit me back the amount I paid for that camera towards the camera that was 10 times more expensive... and slightly better in quality.The remote start an alarm system I had them install didn't work properly and would constantly trigger the alarm. The installer told me that was a switch problem with the door and not an issue of the alarm. Didn't have an issue before it was installed. Took it back to them they disconnected something and now it works somewhat. Since then I have found loose wires hanging out under my dash what seems to be melted electrical tape, my steering wheel controls have started to intermittently work, and the remote start is hit or miss at best, and I can definitely tell the distortion of the speakers that were not replaced as originally requested.It isn't like I was going in there looking for discount service I was ready and willing to pay what was needed to get the work done I wanted. I spent nearly $3000 on the quality of stuff I received and I can tell you that I am very dissatisfied. In total I've spent nearly 10 grand with his establishment with three different vehicles and I'm sad to say that I cannot recommend to anyone that I know in good faith to use them again.

Everybody was super nice and helpful. I Hardly knew any technical jargon, but they were able to figure out what my problem was that I was explaining and give me a solution at a fairly reasonable price. Quoted me a 2 1/2 hour timeframe and had it done more quickly. Robert explained everything to me at least two times and sat patiently with me inside the vehicle while I checked out how amazing it sounded. Very impressed and will definitely return for more services

Buyers beware.... These guys are shady and install is the worst I've ever seen. When I questioned the measurements of the box that I had made the owner cussed me out in front of the other customers. No class. Don't go here.

I took my ford raptor here to get all new door speakers, new tweeters, and get a subwoofer box that would fit perfectly under my back seat. They had everything I needed. I had it all installed the next morning. Looks professional still sounds great.Also the best thing is that the owner and workers do not follow you around and try to over sell you anything like the other audio places in Tucson. So I also had my mother-in-law bring her a brand new charger and get new door speakers as well. That turned out great. Then I brought my daughters 2011 charger there and had subwoofers installed and that still works great as well. So if your thinking of going to the other three audio places in town, I would not recommend that I would come here to stereo pad!!! Also, I have the same system priced at two other audio places for my Ford raptor and it was 800 more dollars at both places. I could go on and on but the point is, don't get punked and go anywhere else. ojslush.

I took my sons car in for an alarm this morning at 930am the owner Jason waited until 1pm to call me and tell me me it will be more money to do the alarm. I told Jason not to do anything I will pick up my car. When I arrived I let him know he was a dishonest piece of sh-- and I would never come back. He had the nerve to rate my place of business with a1 star which had nothing to do with where I work. It unfortunate this day and age a coward like the owner of Stereo pad Jason can do that. What a great stand up guy lol. I urge anyone thinking about going there think again your welcome!!!!If I could have put a negative star I would have

!!!PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU COME HERE!!!Honestly I'm not really sure where to start with this review. I had brought in my 2017 WRX maybe a year ago and there were problems with the 5 channel system they installed from the start of getting my car back. I had scheduled an appointment to come in and no one was there, I then came and took my car the next day and they didn't finish it so i had to come pick up my unfinished car and bring it back again the next day for them to finish. Immediately after getting my car back and driving home I had issues so I then took it back to them the day after for the fourth time in a week. They said they fixed the issue which they were so far off from actually fixing anything. Jason is a great owner but the guys he has working on your car are completely incompetent. They will shove pry tools where they shouldn't and scratch up all your interior parts without caring at all. They do not follow simple instructions online to take things apart. My head unit was ruined like completely botched. They shoved pry tools all around my piano black trim where you can very visibly see it. My door cards were not put back into place correctly and had several broken pop tabs. On the rear of my back seats they didn't even bother pulling the pop tabs out for the carpet, he straight up just ripped the carpet around the pop tabs. Now for the wiring itself, whoever worked on my car had no idea what they were doing. The LC2i system was not only installed improperly, the settings were completely wrong which caused my system to have negative frequencies. The amplifier they installed wasn't secured properly, it was literally dangling with one self tab holding it on. Not to mention how horribly wrong the amplifier settings were tuned to. The wiring was completely wrong too, he ran the RCAS and ground together instead of separated on each side of the car which caused many issues especially for the negative frequencies. For the ground to amplifier connection he had smoked a few holes into the shell of the car to ground it, but he must've realized it was too thick to drill self tappers into so he smoked 2 more holes in the shell right next to it in order to ground the connection. On this part he didn't even sand the factory paint down for the ground connection, this is the ultimate "I have no idea what im doing" example. Not to mention that I needed to get a new factory trim piece from Subaru in order to replace the the piece below the head unit that they completely destroyed. Take a guess to why? More pry tools shoved into places where they shouldn't be!! The door speakers were hardly put into place, he only used 2 screws out of 3 so they were not fixed into place which caused a horrible rattling. For me personally, I came here because they had cheap install prices and Jason seemed to know what he was doing and talking about. DO NOT LET THIS FOOL YOU, he is not the one working on your car. The employees he has installing these parts are completely incompetent. After spending an additional $500 at another audio shop my system is finally fixed and is sounding how it should've been from the start. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!
