After four years of purchasing records from SSD, I got sick and tired of their policy of advertising "new releases" and then taking six months to fill an order. Last year I wrote a scathing review an... See more

Terrible communications. They shipped 2/3 of my order and refuse to ship the other 1/3, or even bother to respond to my multiple emails telling me why. Garbage customer service. Avoid.

Hard To Beat!
I have been purchasing vinyl from Sound Stage Direct for about a year and I couldn't ask for a better site to shop from. I've placed orders both online and on the phone directly and whomever is on the other end of the line is always super polite, patient, very knowledgeable and seems to really care about my needs. I love that! Their method of packaging the vinyl for shipment is literally the best way I have ever seen. Their selection of vinyl is always great! If a new title is coming available soon, they will show what's on the way and you can pre-order and it'll be sent to you the day it's released! They always offer discounts on vinyl and their original prices of vinyl are nothing to look away from. I love their online display. Simple and fun to navigate around with ease. I must be honest, I have shopped at other sites in the past but I love Sound Stage Direct so much, I have been going there and purchasing there first because they usually have what I want at a good price and they don't take a long time to ship either. I highly recommend Sound Stage Direct to anyone!!
Great place to buy new vinyl records
Good selections. Packaging is done super well. Have had box show up damaged and the record was perfectly protected.
Soundstage Direct is my Go-To Record Store!!!!
Soundstage Direct takes enormous stride in keeping their vinyl stock in pristine condition, free of marks or dents which many online shops don't do. My vinyl purchases always arrive well protected and in perfect condition with SSD's protective outer sleeve. I luv that. They have just about every title I'm looking for which makes my shopping on their site easy and fun! Keep up the great service and diverse catalog of vinyls and the coupon codes!! It keeps me shopping on your site!! Release my shipments sooner though. ;)
Fantastic service and very fast delivery!
This is my second purchase and everything was perfect just like the first order. I appreciate the excellent packaging used to ship their records.
Excellent
I have ordered 3 records from them. All of them have been packaged with great care and protection. Shipping dates are always on schedule and with tracking. I reccomend buying from soundstage to everyone.

Great Store
I love this store. Good selection and outstanding service. I will be shopping there a lot.
Great selection and service, but what is up with new vinyl?
The quality of vinyl pressings these days is really off. A lot of warped records. Sometimes it looks scratched. The holes are punched in wrong place and often not large enough so your record ends up getting stuck on turntable. That's the climate I guess. Not sure what Soundstage can do about it though. Maybe they have a large enough voice to complain, hence my comments
Service the way it should be
SSD's service is always outstanding. Whether dealing with an flawed LP or with audio gear, they also go the extra step.
Terrific Product
Records sound amazing - what a difference. The phono amp got back- ordered but Soundstage service was great in contacting me and offered a $10 coupon for a future purchase. Very happy with company and product.
Very good experience
Easy to order. Delivered on time. Product was as described.,
My Favorite Vinyl Source
Good selection and great service at fair prices!
Awesome
I got this item at a discounted price since there was a "bend" in the cover. I couldn't believe it when I opened the package it really wasn't in my opinion that much of a bend. Something that easily could happen in a shipping situation. The fact they discounted it because of this "bend" shows how important quality is to soundstagedirect. I will definitely look into purchasing vinyl from them more often.!
Fast shipping. Packed well.
Fast shipping. Packed well. I will buy again!
Great service !
Great company ! Records are packed exceptionally well. Great customer service
I enjoy doing business with you and do a great job packing the vinyl for shipment !
From the first time I placed an order with Soundstage and received the order, I knew I was going to continue to do business with them. They are a very reliable company and, oh wow,, what a selection of vinyl. I will be a customer forever !
Great service and packaging.
Great service, but the stand out is their packing. Never seen such protective packaging. You could probably throw the package against a brick wall all day and never bend a corner of an album cover.
A passionate company that delivers a great product
Soundstage direct is the only way to go for online record shopping. Thanks guys!
