Review summary

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the quality of the products and the excellent delivery service, often noting that items arrive in good condition and sometimes even earlier than expected. Many consumers appreciate the competitive pricing, frequently finding deals that are better than other markets, and the convenience of included taxes and duties.

Unmatched shipping time, service, and quality of packaging. These guys are audio nerds, just like many of us. They send your stuff the way they would like to receive it, especially the limited edition... See more

It took awhile to arrive all the way from China, but the iBasso Macralon DAC dongle is a top product that really doesn't cost a fortune. It enables me to listen to audio-level music on my Android Noth... See more

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Painfully irresponsible and unresponsive.

To start, I could not pick Express Shipping as the method of shipping when making the order to begin with, the website is really yanky and inconsistent when you try and verify your purchase through authenticated bank apps.

TheHifiCat.com explicitly states that you can swap to Express shipping for added security of a package after already making the order, (they have a quality control window of products for 3 days) and will offer this shipping method to you repeatedly through AI generated E-mails... then they tell you to reply to their offer at the end of them, but they don't consider what you reply to them, they simply ignore your request and move on with their lives.

The support E-mail account doesn't have a single real name or person behind it... meaning it just sends the same repeated message of "As these are high-value items, we'd like to offer you the option of shipping via DHL Express for added security and peace of mind. Could you please let us know if you'd like to proceed with DHL Express, or if you'd prefer to stick with Standard Shipping?"

Contacting them through their own website is also entirely pointless, as they haven't responded in 3 days (All regular workdays)

So yeah, they make it sound like your package will be stolen if you use regular shipping and also ignore you when you try to use different methods.

Regret not only placing an order, but also pre-tipping hoping they'd be competent to deliver based on the Trustpilot score of 4.6 Stars.

Items I ordered: Tangzu Xuanwu Gate.

TRN Wave Dac Amp.

Total money spent: 6412 SEK (€592/$697)

It is really frustrating and takes so much time to contact with them, especially when there is an issue with an order,they are really slow, and even very polite, the output remains not good. I am not happy at all, and next time i will remain with those that

Great experience

A lot of top quality available products, and great prices. Excellent the delivery policy too ( with import taxes included in the displayed price of the products ), and the tracking delivery process.

HiFi Cat is great!

I bought a DAC SGD1 which has due the fabrication a non-functional knob. They sent me a brand new one immediately and I replace it and now everything is functioning great! They have impressive audiophile devices. The only problem for me as I saved one year money to buy this DAC (not because is expensive just because I am in a way poor) is they do not offer possibility to buy paying monthly fees as I would like to buy a SONCOZ amplifier from them....but I can not afford to pay all amount once... So they are one of the best in the world!

The hifi cat had what I needed and got it to me quick (fiio retro case for M 21 player ). They communicated immediately when a color choice occurred. (either wait a couple days for blue or take SILVER now) they immediately got the silver one out and it showed up quickly and in good shape. Now I’m rocking retro style! Good job, hifi cat!

I am so glad to find this website

I am so glad to find this website, the prices are very reasonable not as other sites, it basically keeps the price quite similar as how it sells in original local stores. Super nice! The only opinion I may have is that the website may consider to have some ear tips as well, but all the other areas are pretty good!

Read it ! If you're ordering from India

Excellent service and customer response from them although you have to use the chat bot to initiate it but they'll come back to you with tracking ID, If you're ordering from India than it might take 25-28 days to receive the order but you'll receive it and in excellent condition (as per my case). Overall I am very happy with the purchase.

Underrated site!

I was a little suspicious, given the wide variety of products offered on this site, but my purchase (MP3 player case) came quickly and exactly as advertised.
