I started my journey with Richer sounds because they were the only place i could find that were prepared to try to repair my failed hifi. Alas no luck but they very efficiently helped me to upgrade to something better 😀

Great experience having a demo of speakers with Tom, very helpful. Very happy with the speakers I ended up with, hearing various speakers I had shortlisted enabled me to make an informed decision. Great price and informed staff, thanks Tom

I recently visited Richer Sounds Cambridge and had an absolutely outstanding experience. The store stands out for its genuine expertise, customer-focused approach, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere created by the whole team. Every step of the process felt smooth, honest, and well-supported, and it’s clear that the Cambridge branch takes real pride in offering thoughtful guidance and practical solutions for any home project.

They also offered excellent advice on projectors, helping me compare different options and understand which models would best suit my needs. What impressed me most was the store’s flexibility and willingness to explore multiple setups as my requirements evolved, making everything stress-free and enjoyable. It’s rare to find a retailer that combines deep knowledge with such a friendly and professional attitude.

A special mention goes to Olivia, whose exceptional service and leadership truly elevate the experience. Her advice, patience, and dedication were outstanding, and she is a real credit to Richer Sounds Cambridge. I will definitely continue to return for future purchases. Highly recommended.

I am extremely disappointed with the service I have received. Communication has been poor, and I have not received timely or accurate information regarding my order.

When I placed the order on 30th November delivery was agreed for 5th December. Only later was I told that the delay was due to the supplier, and I have now been informed that I will not receive my delivery until after the New Year. This is completely unacceptable.

When I phoned for clarification, I was given incorrect and conflicting information, which only added to the frustration. This experience has been a disaster and has ruined our Christmas plans. I expected far better from Richer Sounds.

Please accept my sincere apologies for the obvious disappointment here, which I can assure you has been keenly felt by us too.

It's correct that we were let down by the supplier last minute, as despite expecting a consignment stock to fulfill yours and other orders, it didn't arrive. I appreciate this was none of your making of course, and I'm genuinely sorry that when you spoke to the store they had difficulty clarifying what was happening.

I appreciate you taking our call to come to a solution in the interim, we will be in touch as soon as we have your order ready and will make sure not to disappoint you again..

This was my second visit after purchasing some awesome speakers on my 1st visit. I was impressed with the salesman’s knowledge and felt, after listening to them, I had to then upgrade my amplifier. The same person served me and again, great knowledgeable advice/demonstration given. As Arnie famously said; “I’ll be back” !!

Knowledgable staff who really do know what they are talking about- great advice and guidance. Good after sales support helping to resolve a problem (which I had created). Great product, very pleased with my new turntable, which was very well priced! Will visit again.

The gentlemen at the shop were extremely helpful allowing me to try out the headphones fully before purchasing. Knowledgable and gave great set up tips. Can’t recommend enough.

Poor comms and poor customer service

Was told the items were in stock, booked my delivery and paid. I was told if there were any problems they would call me, I had no call so assumed the delivery would arrive as expected. Nothing turned up on the day of delivery so called them to ask why, was told no stock and wouldn’t be back in stock until end of December! Expressed my disappointment and was told someone would call me back to discuss, no call back! Not good enough when you are spending £3k.

Purchase of turntable

Very helpful assistants in the shop talked me through a range of turntables following my description of what l wanted. They explained what was good about each one for the price l wanted to pay so l could make my selection to purchase.
