On 7/1/2026 Adan Trujillo had this to say:
Great place to go to for any quality sound/custom audio work. I have gotten a sub and amp installed initially and had a little bit of a problem with feedback, but this place was so flexible, to get me back in to find, explain, and fix the problem and get me back on the road. I am very pleased to say that Custom Sound and Image will not disappoint. My vehicle sounds amazing!

On 7/1/2026 DUBS had this to say:
Had Aaron/guys install a new stereo/amp/subs in my truck. I am VERY happy with the end results! They even installed an amp that I already had. Aaron is super easy to deal with. He tells you straight on what he thinks would work/not work. They do not try to upsell/etc. The whole process from start to finish was nice and smooth. Would DEFINITELY recommend them to anyone. Please contact them for your audio/vehicle accessory needs! Testimonial written by DUBS on this site.
