Chelsea Audio Video

If you want real information about the gear you are about to buy, go to Chelsea. Unlike the superstores, they actually know what they are talking about and they can guide to to products that will withstand the test of time. Are they more expensive? Yes and no. They certainly sell a class of product you won't find at Best Buy (not even in the Magnolia section), but they also know they have to compete. I have found their prices competitive, meaning they are usually the same as the big box stores or online for products that are available in such places. The last two times I have been in there they have had manufacturer close-out deals on the items I was looking for. I got high quality audio gear at a better price than the big box store, and it was better than the junk I listened to at the big box. The customer service is always great. If you want a cheap cable for your computer speakers, go to Radio Shack or Amazon. I do that too. If you want a great system is made from stuff that will last and will work well together, go to Chelsea. Amazingly, I'm still using a pair of speakers I bought from them in the early 80's. That is quality and value you can't get from Amazon or the big box chains. more

Horribly rude people that work there, Customer Service is a joke too them. more

I recently purchased several audio components and a large screen plasma TV. I shopped around quite a bit both on line and in the Portland Metro area. I decided on Chelsea after a lot of leg work and research. This ended up being one of the most positive shopping experience in recent years. Kyle Grimm was excellent - very dedicated, knowledgeable, competent. I would never consider going anywhere else - simply a great experience all round. Why can't more stories offer such a positive experience? Thanks! more

When shopping for your home entertainment center, going to large superstores tends to be completely overwhelming with no education on the products. Then I went to Chelsea Audio and was pleasantly surprised with the true locally owned family business atmosphere. Here you are able to get a one on one service that starts in their showroom and ends with your system completely installed in your home. I would recomend Chelsea Audio to anyone looking for a quality product with amazing customer service. Just take a trip to their showroom in Beaverton and you will see what I mean. Pros: Amazing Quality more
