WHERE OUR STORY BEGAN
1983
MIAMI, FLORIDA

It’s been a long road for Sounds Good Stereo, but one that is filled with satisfaction. In the early days of 8-track players and cassette decks, Sounds Good Stereo was on the cutting edge of installation techniques and product innovations for our Miami clients. Born on Biscayne Blvd in 1983 by Marc L., the dream was always to deliver the best audio systems for vehicles possible. In the early 1990s car audio was the craze in Miami, FL.

The introduction of “Miami Bass” also regarded as “booty bass” took over the airwaves and customers wanted to enjoy this new sub-genre of music in their vehicle. Being in downtown Miami, just minutes from the world-famous South Beach, Sounds Good Stereo was well known for its attention to detail and custom installation techniques that set the bar in our industry. Since then, the music has evolved along with the installation techniques, but our dedication to our clients has always stayed consistent for over 35+ years.

In 2012, Marc L. passed his creation off to the next generation of car audio experts, and one who happens to be a long-time employee of Sounds Good Stereo. The goal, to become the best in the nation. To achieve this, everything needed to be looked at from another angle. From the products and tuning capabilities to customer service, we revamped everything to the best of our ability. This same year, the team traveled to the U.S. and even to France to visit the Focal speaker factory.

Since 2012, we have attended hundreds of training seminars nationwide, moved to the Top 12 Installers in the nation, and provide training seminars and technical support to other retailers, even locally here in the Nashville, TN area. A lot has changed since 1983, but our commitment to our clients will always continue.

We would like to say thanks to our amazing clients and we look forward to the next 36+ years with our new location just outside of Nashville, TN.

WE PROUDLY CHOSE

NASHVILLE, TN

AS OUR NEW HOME

The most common question we receive….Why Nashville, TN? Well, the simple answer is we love music, community, and family values. The influence was from one of our team members Don L. He was born and raised here in Middle Tennessee with family spread out in the Nashville area including Mount Juliet. Growing up being exposed to musicians and working several years at Hifi Buys on Nolensville Rd, he knew the potential of the area compared to others. Even though Don lived in Florida for 10 years away from Nashville, he knew one day that he would bring a dream team of passionate car audio experts back home.

In October 2018, Sounds Good Nashville opened its door to the public with a team of award-winning, industry certified, world-class individuals, to provide a scientific approach to audio rather than guesswork that currently exists in the area.

We are not the shop for everyone and you will find that we are not the cheapest, but if you could define the right way to upgrade your vehicles audio system, our team would be that definition.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Over the years with countless custom one of builds in some of the worlds most unique vehicles, our company has changed. No longer are we offering traditional “retail” installations, but rather product development that can benefit more than a single customer in our store.

Integrating a aftermarket stereo system in your vehicle requires specific parts and many manufactures simply create these with extremely low budgets in mind. While this does benefit some, those who are looking for a better quality installation part are most of the time out of luck and finding a custom stereo shop that can build a higher-quality part is sometimes hundreds of miles away.

So many years ago, we started developing high quality, performance drivin parts for those who demand more. From amplifier racks to full plug and play stereo systems, Sounds Good Stereo has and will continue to be at the forefront of high-end, quality stereo systems for your vehicle.
