A very thoughtful note from one of our fellow music loving customers…
I am writing to share my experience with Nuts About Hi-Fi and express my sincere gratitude. For a while, my focus on acquiring the perfect audio equipment overshadowed my enjoyment of music, but my visits to your shop helped me rediscover the true essence of Hi-Fi.
I first visited Nuts About Hi-Fi as a college student about five years ago. I was immediately impressed by your store’s selection and your clear passion for Hi-Fi. You kindly allowed me to audition several headphones, and the Focal Clear MGs immediately stood out. Their soundstage, clarity, and rich bass were exceptional, allowing me to get lost in the music. I knew then that I wanted a pair.
My second visit a few years later reaffirmed my desire for the Focal Clear MGs. I appreciated how they allowed me to simply enjoy the music without overthinking technical perfection. Our conversations about music and Hi-Fi further enhanced the experience. My most recent visit this summer was to finally purchase them. This time, I brought my own headphones for comparison, which confirmed that the Focal Clear MGs were the right choice for me.
Beyond the excellent equipment, what I truly value is the experience you provide. During each visit, you engaged with me, shared your insights, and offered recommendations based on my preferences. You created an environment where I could genuinely explore and enjoy the equipment. It felt like chatting with a friend about a shared passion.
Your enthusiasm for Hi-Fi and your commitment to helping customers like me appreciate music have been truly inspiring. Thank you for guiding me back to the joy of high-fidelity music.
I wanted to share a photo Eli sent me of an impressive installation our team completed yesterday. Eli, Justyn, and Erik successfully installed a 125lb, 100-inch flat screen 25 feet from the floor for a new restaurant opening soon on the Bremerton waterfront.
We often receive requests for challenging installations, and this project was a perfect example of our team’s expertise.
I sometimes forget to mention on this blog that Nuts About Hi Fi sells and installs flat-screen TVs. As a member of ProSource, a premier buying group, we have access to the top three flat-screen brands in the country. This membership also allows us to remain price competitive with big box stores and online sellers.
If you need a TV and want it installed properly, please give us a call.
I wanted to share some photos of a recent Vicoustic cinema premium panel installation that Eli and Erik completed last week for a customer on Bainbridge Island.
I called the customer the following morning to get his thoughts, and he was very pleased with the new look. More importantly, he and his wife are thrilled with how the room now allows them to hear every nuance of their soundtracks, and it has significantly improved their ability to hear dialogue.
This week, we had the pleasure of installing a fantastic new system for Ron and Janet, who were referred to us by two couples and close friends in Woodinville, both long-term Nuts About Hi-Fi clients.
Justyn and our newest employee, Erik, meticulously set up all the equipment and ran the Nordost Heimdall 2 speaker cables through the crawl space. We used wall-mounted brush plates both behind the electronics and speakers to ensure a clean, low-profile aesthetic.
After visiting their friends’ homes in Woodinville and experiencing their listening rooms, Ron and Janet decided to move forward with a system of their own. A few weeks ago, at their request, I drove to their beautiful home in Port Angeles to assess the possibilities. The room we chose to be their new “listening room,” directly off their bedroom, is one of the most acoustically balanced rooms we have had the pleasure to work in. Not to mention, the furniture in this room makes you never want to leave the couch!
Ron had been doing some online research and had already decided on the Scala Utopia in a blue finish. These are being custom-made for them in France, and we were able to loan them the white pair shown in the photos as a temporary measure. The Marantz Model 30, also pictured, is a placeholder while we await the arrival of the new Aesthetix Pallene and Dione preamp/amp combination. This is currently being handmade for them by Jim White and his team at Aesthetix. The Marantz 30 we temporarily installed was actually owned by one of their friends in Woodinville that I recently took in trade towards a Mola Mola Tambaqui.
The other day I was just joking with Brad, their other friend, that with as much business as he and Erik are sending us that we will now have to refer to their listening rooms as “Nuts About Hi-Fi – Woodinville branch.”
So after some adjustments, getting this set up and tuned, Ron and I listened to several tracks, including a Led Zeppelin song that I hadn’t heard for years. We were both taken aback by the level of detail, able to hear nuances in this 50-year-old-recording that neither of us had ever heard before. The band was almost in the room with us. And this was after only about 25 minutes of listening to a system that needs at least a week to fully break in.
We still have a few more tweaks to do in this room. Janet has volunteered to make a drapery for the window between the bedroom and the listening room. This will soften and diffuse any high-frequency reflections that might occur during high volume playback. We also will be back into the crawl area to finish cabling the JL Audio F113 Series 2 subwoofer, which is discreetly placed to the left of their couch.
I will follow up with more photos when the system is complete.
Thanks so much, everyone, for allowing us to do what we love, and thanks to all our customers who care enough to refer our services.
