The only solution was to reroute the wire. No matter what the … [Read more...]

Testimonials

My audio system sounds far better than it ever did, and this was without any hardware changes!

I instantly knew that Michael is now joining my short list of service providers whom I trust. I do not often write reviews or give much feedback, except when it is very well deserved – negative or positive. I am happy to act as a referral for Michael, and if any prospective customer is reading this and wants to talk to me before spending any money with Michael I will take time out of my day to help out.

Michael has done an outstanding job on all of our family vehicles.

He’s always available when we’ve needed him and goes above and beyond without being asked. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer him to any of my friends, family & associates.

Michael Thompson at Method Sound was great to work with!

He was able to seamlessly integrate my new equipment into the car with the same quality and care that was taken at the factory in Germany. His attention to detail and extensive technical knowledge make him the best choice to work on your high end/exotic car.
