I've ordered from Crutchfield for years. My recent purchase was exactly what I expected. Great service, great warranty, zero issues. Save yourself the trouble of ordering from places that have zero after purchase customer care...Sonic... If you want a worry free transaction order from Crutchfield.
Bought a stereo for my run of the mill 2014 caravan. Their instructions said no cutting of the dash required. Well, after wiring I up I find I does not fit in the opening. The radio is too big so without hacking the outer dash, it's not going to fit. I decided to call and find out I this was normal and all I got was attitude. Tech told me I didn't read the instructions or fit info. When I proved him wrong on both counts, he then said I must have some special model. No apologies, no solutions, he just tried to blame me. And then hung up. I'm sending this junk back. If I can't can't get accurate fit info or tech support I might as well buy it on Amazon for less money.
Very fast response, excellent customer service! I have purchased 3 Sony TVs from them! Never any problems, web site is excellent, would refer them to all my friends!

Like many of us, I had the option of buying my car stereo from several places. I chose Crutchfield. I researched what I wanted from their website and went with a Pioneer head unit along with a set of Alpine speakers. My sales rep Quinn, was extremely helpful and quite knowledgeable about what would work in my 1995 300ZX convertible. It's a show car that gets a lot of looks and I wanted to get the sound system "right" since I'm a little particular about my baby. With free shipping and no sales tax, I decided to pay the small fee for the ready harness per Quinn's suggestion. I received my order so quick, I'm looking forward to installing it this weekend. Even though I know how to remove the center dash fascia as well as the door skins, I was impressed that Crutchfield emailed me detailed drawings ahead of my order on my 24 year old sports car that were dead on correct. The installation guide they emailed me is super easy to understand as well. For what you spend, I think Crutchfield provides the best overall value in the marketplace!

I wanted to upgrade the car audio system for my 2002 Ford Mustang GT with Mach 1000 system, I used the recommended system, the Pioneer. I am extremely happy, first with the service, then the extras and best, the quality.

Crutchfield really helped me out. I emailed them with the type of subs I have and asked what type of amp they would recommend. They came back to me with a prompt response with a great deal on an infinity kappa amp. I have 2 jl 12tw3-4 running them with a infinity k1000 in my 16 silverado

One of the very best online shopping experiences I have ever had. Opportunity for as much (or little) communication as I desired. Even an unexpected free installation kit. I can not recommend enough.

2004 WRX aftermarket deck, stock speaker upgrade. After a few days of researching what speakers I wanted and using Crutchfield's "will fit tool" I ordered speakers for front and rear doors. Really excited to install using the free front speaker adapter brackets included! Should be a simple easy job I thought. (I'm not a professional, but I'm not an Amature to this stuff.) boy was I wrong, the included adapter brackets fit the factory spot perfectly! However, Crutchfield didn't actually check to see if the speakers would fit the bracket. They don't. So I'm now fabricating another adapter for the adapter bracket. Not terrible but expected a bit more attention to detail from a company who specializes in this. It won't effect any future purchases I make from them as they are still the best all around.
As for the rear speakers, there was no bracket included, I don't believe there is one made. It just so happens the speaker design fits perfectly in the factory cutout, so I am fabricating a mounting bracket for this as well. Not sure if there is an issue with their "will fit tool" but these speakers def do not fit, but I can make them work!

I bought the JVC KD-T900BTS receiver to replace the factory stereo in my 86 Fiero. The conversion plug and wiring was pretty straight forward. They included mounting brackets and face plates as the new radio wasn't an exact fit. All of that went very well!
My Fiero has an amped sub woofer. They included some sort of plug that is supposed to make that work. Well, the instructions of how or where to use it are not very helpful. I really have no idea where to put it or if it will even make my sub woofer work because the amp was built into the old factory radio? I left that part out and unplugged the small sub woofer because all it did was make a small thump noise non stop.
So far, I like the radio and everything else seems to be working just fine except the sub woofer.
I really like that they included the wiring harness conversion and I bought some wire stripper/cutters and caps for the wires. That part is great.

This was my first car stereo install and I went all over online trying to figure out din, single din, double din, hands free, and all this other stuff. I actually picked out a stereo on Amazon but then somebody told me I need a kit for the dash. Wth? So I never could find anything on Amazon and noticed Crutchfield in my online search for help. I picked out a stereo and the website was all, like, whoa, hold on there, here's EVERYTHING else you need to successfully install that stereo in your model car. I was, like, no way. There's everything in a neat little list. So I made my purchase and they not only shipped for free my packages arrived TWO days later! With everything they supplied me in addition to super concise instructions, I had my new Alpine stereo installed in under and hour. Just two days ago my daughter came to me with an amp to install in her car but her stereo didn't have any rca jacks. What did we do? We came right to Crutchfield. I would recommend this company to EVERYBODY. Thanks, Crutchfield!

I first ordered my sub from Best Buy, 2 days into shipping they couldn't tell me what was going on with my order. 12 days into it the only answer they gave me was to contact Kicker because " they have nothing to do with special orders". Mind you, I paid Best Buy, ordered it from Best Buy and got the tracking # email from Beat Buy. I canceled my order with them and bought it through Crutchfield and got it 2 days later.

I can't say that there is any particular assortment.
But it has all the basic models and most of the products are always in stock.
You can deal with the necessary purchases in a couple of minutes.
