Was in Chicago on vacation and decided to stop in. Quite possibly the friendliest people you can imagine working here. Oh and the back room is AMAZING if you're a vinyl or audio junkie. Tons of used records and discounted AV equipment. I left with a stack of out of print MFSL and other various 180g ...

Worst Experience Ever! For the last decade I've usually buy used electronics due to my limited means. When the time I was able to buy "brand new" electronics, this seller robbed me with that experience, having the box covered with oil stain over it. It was concerning and disheartening to have this e...

Superb sales and customer support and great products. Bought my Focals here and they sound amazing! Shipped perfectly and no issues at all. Even recommended power cables for me. I have ordered from Music Direct multiple times and they stand behind their 60 day return policy for all purchases. I had...

Music Hall Ikura. Color me impressed with this turntable. It had some big shoes to fill. It ran side by side my SOTA and it won . Dead black backgrounds , No motor or grounding hum at all. The Ortofon 2M blue is heads above the red. I have just become a Music Hall fanboy.

Ordered two sets of Iso-acoustics Gaia II on a Wednesday. Had to call on Friday to find out someone didn't ship them. Order finally arrived, only to find out the M12 inserts, which were advertised as included with the GAIA II's, were not included. Was told it would take another two weeks for the ...

Do not buy from these guys!! I ordered a Dire Straits LP on August 13th and paid $5.49 for shipping. When I finally got a USPS tracking number it said I'd receive my LP on August 20th. No problem!! On the 20th after not receiving my album and seeing the package was in Rochester, NY while I live in N...

This is a review for the music. If you're into MoFi vinyl this is the place to go for deals. They have a section of returns for whatever reasons (usually seam splits) that go for great values. It has a low profile store front that doesn't offer any clues as to what's inside but trust me there are so...

Great audiophile vinyl selection. Customer service is top notch. A recent order took a few extra days to ship out because of a recent snowstorm. I called, they made sure it shipped out that day and even upgraded the shipping for free. Their packaging is the best in the biz. Can t wait til the store ...

Over promised and not even under delivered!!! They simply DID NOT DELIVER!!! Extremely disappointed with the way Order# 1150685 was handled. Deprived me of the opportunity to purchase Cardas ICs before I returned from my vacation, and flatly refused to do anything to resolve the situation other tha...

i've been burned by this company before and against my better judgement, tried to order from them online and have once again had a terrible experience. Their customer service person was extremely rude when i asked a simple question, and have not shipped the items in a timely fashion as they describe...

Recently purchased an analogue productions vinyl record. It was shipped wrapped tightly around their thick catalog. Album was warped with almost half inch variance unclamped on platter. I called spoke with a rep whom sounded stoned and uninterested. Did offer to replace it if I mailed back my co...

I've been a customer since 1995, and their analog and lp selection is 2nd to none!

MD's staff is really why I come back each time- they are true enthusiasts with knowledge of systems of all types, and for literally all budgets. When I'm trying to sonically match one component to another, they alw...

Horrible customer service, sales rep Josh should not be in customer service. When is it ok for an employee in sales to totally disregard a customers need and then hang up the phone on the customer all because the customer prefer to pick up his order which the company allows rather than have the orde...

Salesperson can t be bothered to follow up on requests for sales. In house customer service issues are blamed on the customer while no ownership of action is ever admitted by Music Direct. I ve never dealt with a more standoffish and accusatory staff in 20+ years of buying audio gear. Hard pass.

There is a gentleman named Al who works at this store who is amazingly fantastic. He was knowledgeable, polite and clearly hard working. He provided me with great service and helped pick the exact pair of headphones . Who ever his boss is needs to give him a raise before someone steals him.

this review is for the physical store, I'm sure the online service is great.

The B&M store is an understandable compromise. It's a warehouse that sets up a listening room in the back and room full of vinyl. great selection, and the whole catalogue of Mo-Fi masters.

so why 3 stars? because I th...
