Knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.

The service I received from David was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. He took the time to understand what I was looking for, selected several appropriate products and explained a few technical terms then helped me choose one, and I am delighted with it.
He made sure I had the best discount possible and arranged for delivery free of charge the next day when my choice of speakers was not available immediately.

Great guidance.

I went into Richer in Middlesbrough knowing that I wanted a soundbar to improve my television watching experience. I didn't know which one but I did have certain criteria. Paul listened and came up with a couple of suggestions which I'd never have thought of. I opted for a JBL 800. Currently I'm listening to music from my echo dot, connected by Bluetooth. The sound is brilliant.

Middlesbrough store.

Needed a new receiver for home cinema system as old one broke. Saw an Onkyo one I was interested in. So gave the Middlesbrough branch a call as thats was the nearest branch to me. The lad I spoke to was very polite, listened to what I needed and seemed very knowledgeable. Was even offered receivers they had in stock in store as the one I wanted wasn't getting re-stocked until the week after. But anyways, ordered one to be delivered in store. When it came i went to the store, it took 5 minutes to check my details, I get a 6 year warranty as I bought it from them, and the lad even carried the receiver out to my car and put it in my boot!! Would highly recommend this business, and will definitely be using them again!!

Outstanding Service and Outstanding Staff Member

I knew exactly what TV i wanted to purchase but was unsure if i could in corporate the TV with my existing media system ie amplifier. Stuart talked me through everything and even after installation there was a sound issue. Stuart again went the extra mile came out and recalibrated my whole system with the addition of a new cable. In the future i may well need to update my system and Richer Sounds will be my first port of call.

Media Wall Technology

The team at Middlesbrough were patient and helpful when I was looking to purchase a TV and sound bar for a media wall. Once I had selected equipment, they put me in touch with a local installer who was able to explain what was required for the audio visual items.

I was not aware that Richer Sounds could have put me in touch with installers. Knowing this would have been helpful in reducing time to purchase.
