A Sound Piece of Advice

Buying a Hi-Fi or Home Cinema system has always been a headache, but never more so than now. When entering your local high street store you will be greeted by a bewildering array of flashing lights and knobs on equipment seemingly brimming with technology. You will probably be offered a brief listen to a couple of systems already set up in a busy shop front and this will be your only way of evaluating the performance of the equipment.

At Audio Images we believe in doing things a little differently.

The range of equipment we stock is carefully selected for its high sound quality as well as long term reliability and serviceability. As the performance of the equipment is its strength, it is simpler to the eye and easier to use.

Knowledgeable staff, not paid on commission, use their experience to help you choose the right system for you and your pocket.

All You Have to do is Listen!

The primary reason for buying a Hi Fi system is to listen to music. At Audio Images we believe that this is the only way to judge a system. You don't have to be an expert to hear differences between systems, just remember: "If it sounds better it is better!"

To help you relax and decide which equipment does sound the best we have equipped demonstration rooms where you can listen to your chosen Hi Fi system in comfort. You are quite welcome to bring along music that you are familiar with as well as any of your present components for comparison. We ask only that you book an appointment to ensure that the rooms are free, however you are welcome to come along at any time and have a look around.

Experience the Thrill of Home Cinema at Home

With the advent of Nicam stereo T.V., Hi-Fi video recorders and stereo satellite systems there is now the possibility of having a system in the home performing just like a real cinema. At Audio Images we have demonstration rooms to show you how you can integrate your television and Hi-Fi into a full surround sound system which allows you to experience a film rather than just watch it. These Home Cinema systems use five loudspeakers; one at either side of the television for left and right effects, one on top of the T.V. set for speech and two surround speakers positioned at the rear of the room to engulf you with surround sound. We also supply and install large screen televisions and video projection systems with pictures from 40 inches to 20 feet across to complete the picture.

These systems must be experienced to be believed!

Central Hearing System

These wall-mounted units the size of a lightswitch control your Hi-Fi system. They allow you to listen to and control whatever you want, in whichever room you like. Advanced, yet so simple to use, the Linn Knekt multiroom system.

Loudspeakers needn't be unsightly either. We can supply and fit high performance speakers into your walls or ceiling. We can also hide all the cables under the plaster and terminate them with custom made faceplates.

At Audio Images we pride ourselves in the ability to design and install discrete sound and vision systems for the most discerning homes.

At Your Service

There are now hundreds of different Hi-Fi and Home Cinema components on the market for you to choose from. If you were to try to listen to all of them it would take you a lifetime. At Audio Images we consider what products are available at each particular price and only stock those that we feel offer the very best in value for money. Not only do we evaluate the piece of equipment for its sound quality but also for its reliability and serviceability. We also take into account the ability of the manufacturer to offer us long term support so we can offer the same to you. We are so confident of our ability to evaluate equipment that we are prepared to offer a free two year extended warranty on all British manufactured equipment.

So whatever equipment you decide on you will be happy in the knowledge that not only does it offer you the best sound performance for your money but also the utmost in reliability.
