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.
My order was shipped fast, and i got everything I ordered. Its also great knowing that if I have any questions, the guys and gals in Virginia know what they're talking about

In fact, all customers appreciate three things - affordable prices, a normal selection and the ability to get help if needed. It's all there. And that's great.

Purchased a new Boss head unit with backup camera along with all appropriate wiring harnesses and adaptors for 2014 Jeep Wrangler JKU. Everything was delivered quickly and correctly. Provided instructions were very detailed for my vehicle and helpful up through disassembly of the dash and removal of the factory head unit. Then the instructions just referred you to the instructions supplied with the head unit and camera for making all wiring connections. The instructions provided by Boss were complete trash for both the head unit and the camera. The obvious connections were easy but there were many free wires with no instruction indicating whether they should be connected somewhere or left unconnected. I also had to rely on YouTube to identify that the purpose of the USB adaptor was for connecting to the factory harness (which was located elsewhere in the dash and connected to the factory Bluetooth unit) from the existing USB connection in the center console. A simple wiring chart/diagram indicating what connects where including all non-used wires would be helpful.
My adaptor module ended up being faulty, but it took a while to figure that out because of the lack of instruction and not knowing whether one of the non-used wires needed to be connected.
I contacted tech support 3 times--their customer service was excellent and knowledgeable. You get an actual human within 2-3 rings and they actually know what both you and they are talking about.

Got speakers in two days as promised. They are fantastic!
Great experience adding Dolby atmos right and left speakers to my 7.1 system. Crisp, clear and definitely add an extra overhead sound field.
Tip - If using auto calibration on your receiver, recommend manually increasing front right and left speaker height levels 2-3 dB AFTER auto calibration (Audyssey, MCAC, YPAO).

Had never used this website before and am pretty upset that I hadn't, they ship quickly and give you everything you will need to install your items. AMAZING service, will continue to use for as long as I ever install audio in my vehicles.

The customer service at Crutchfield is fantastic and helpful! I made several calls for assistance with my install and each time my problem was solved. The new stereo works and looks great!
Tip for consumers:
Information about existing radio you will be replacing is helpful to find appropriate replacement. The website is also great asking the right questions.

Crutchfield's website helped me find the best radio for the price. I was also able to retain my Sync and SiriusXM systems which was very important to me. Overall an excellent experience!

The Crutchfield customer service team is top notch. They assisted me with troubleshooting a receiver I purchased from another supplier and picking out a replacement receiver the better fits my needs.

I ordered a blue tooth device to allow me to play my music on an old receiver. They absolutely knocked themselves out to be sure I was getting the right thing

I was looking for some cheap speakers that would right into the door on my Chevy Z71 pickup that I would not have to drill into the door but would go back in like the factory ones and my coworker said look at this site, he typed in Crutchfield and I found exactly what I was looking for. I am very impressed with your selection, definitely will use your site again.

Wasn't sure exactly which replacement speakers to choose for my 2016 Passat. I planned to buy Polk Audio but because I was keeping my OEM head unit, Aaron at Crutchfield suggested I go with JBL concert series. I just installed the speakers and sound deadner in the rear doors this weekend and am wow'd. The rear speakers sound way better than the OEM, loud and clear with no rattles or distortion. Haven't had a chance to replace the front door speakers and deadner yet but it will be real soon! Thanks Aaron for your help the JBLs are great and I will be ordering that bazooka tube in the next few weeks.

They delivered my order 15 days late, and when I returned the complete order without even opening it, they just refuse to issue a refund.

I always check out Crutchfiel FIRST before buying anything car audio related because their application database is the best! They also have a wide array of installation accessories and hard to find items!

Shipping was fast and items safely packaged. All items worked as expected; head unit sounds great. Went with a single DIN so the buttons are smaller. Wiring harness and adapters all worked and instructions were mostly accurate and helpful; I did not need to call for help. The head unit and replacement dash mounting kit fit my vehicle with one flaw. The curvature along the top does not match up tightly with the air vent trim (as the original dash mount did). Otherwise the dash mount looks and feels the same as the original. I was expecting an over-blown price tag for all the items I ordered but turns out the cost was reasonable and I got what was necessary to install without looking all around for the correct items and directions. I checked several other online retailers and overall Crutchfield had the best options for head units, kits, adapters and clear directions. Though some individual items can cost a bit more, it may be worth paying more to get the whole package and support (if needed). Be aware that some adapters (steering wheel functions) do require external website use for access to specific directions and updates. As a novice installer of car audio systems, using Crutchfield was a positive experience all around; I'll come back here first, when needed.
