Nick - Store Manager: joined Audio T in 2008

First Job: ASDA

Favourite Bands/Genres: All music genres get played in our house but I have a real soft spot for electronic music and in particular House and Techno. I do like a lot of Hip Hop from the 90s now along with Drum'n'bass (mainly the wife). Underworld, the Chemical Brothers, Groove Armada, Fatboy Slim, Pendulum, SHY FX, A Tribe Called Quest, The Cinematic Orchestra & SBTRKT just to name a handful.

Best Gig: Daft Punk Alive Tour - 2006 Global Gathering

Kerrin - Sales Assistant: Joined Audio T in 2018

First Job: Maplin Electronics

Favourite Gigs: Rage Against The Machine 2010, Glastonbury 2005 (the year of the mud flood)

Favourite Bands/Genres: Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Caligula's Horse, Tesseract, John Butler Trio and John Frusciante to name a few of an overly long and eclectic list...

Current System: Rega Planar 3 with Ortofon 2m Red cartridge, Nytech CDP122 MM/MC Phono Stage, Adam A7x Speakers, IsoAcoustics ISO-200 Speaker Stands.

Matt - Sales Assistant: Joined Audio T in 2021

First Job: House of Fraser / Howells.

Current system: Currently consists of a Denon PMA 30 amp with a matching Denon DCD50 CD Player with Klipsch reference R51M speakers.

Favourite Gigs: Jerry Cantrell on the 2002 Degradation Trip tour In TJ’s in Newport, next I’d say Anthrax on the 2012 Worship Music tour at the Cole Exchange in Cardiff and of course ZZ top on their 2015 tour at the SSE Arena Wembley with special guest Jeff Beck.

Favourite Music - I’d say I have quite eclectic music taste I listen to a few different genres, but I do lean towards Rock and metal being my favourite. I like blues country jazz, electronica, hip hop and even some classical but as I say I’m firmly rooted in the rock side of things. My favourite bands are Van Halen, ZZ Top, Anthrax, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Ozzy Osbourne, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Beastie Boys, Rush, Peter Gabriel and Massive Attack. As I say I do listen to a lot of other genres in music but it’s too long to list.

Interesting Fact: I love playing the guitar and mountain biking. I have been very lucky to meet some of my favourite musicians over the years the main one I met was Billy F Gibbons of ZZ top at the 2005 Arlington Texas Vintage Guitar Show.

    Davis J - 11th April 2021
  • I have used Audio T Cardiff for many years and always found the staff very friendly, helpful and knowlegable. They are always keen to find out what your requiremnets really are and are never pushy. If you as a buyer are a newcomer to hifi or have many years of experience they can always come up with useful and meaningful recommendations because they work as a team. Whether you want to buy something at the lower end or the higher end you always get the same attention. I can't fault them or their attitde. During the lockdown they were always prepared to help and offer advice no matter how simple or difficult the question. Highly recommended

    Tim O'G - 11th February 2021
  • Having read reviews I wanted a Planar turntable and preferred buying local.This proved difficult due to COVID availability nationally,
    Burke M - 5th February 2021
  • Excellent service! All staff are knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating.
    Griff - 29th January 2021
  • The demonstration at Audio T of the Naim Muso 2 was marred by the demonstrator being unable to play any of the tracks requested due to server issues. This meant familiar music tracks were substituted by unknown ones, meaning comparisons of reproduction could not readily be made. Luckily, the unit spoke for itself regardless, so I bought it.
    Burgess K - 18th January 2021
  • Excellent and professional approach to responding to not what I may have thought I wanted but more what I actually needed.,
    Smith R - 18th January 2021

    Mr Fudge, Bridgend - 31st March 2020
  • I called in on a quiet and very wet afternoon so had instant service. My specification was a bit vague but salesperson guided me through options with recommendations. I was happy with my choice as it was in my budget. I wondered whether it was possible to order a unit on-line and for home delivery to be made as I suspect your shop is closed at present.
    Mr Smith, Cardiff - 30th March 2020
  • Fantastic, efficient service
    Mr Ridgwell, Penarth - 19th March 2020
  • Great customer service. I purchased my first record player and in the store they showed me a step by step set up guide.
    Mr Curtis, Cardiff - 8th March 2020
  • Having moved to a new city an audiophile friend of mine recommended Audio T to me. He has dealt with them for many years. It goes without saying that they are knowledgable. They were friendly and helpful. They let me test two sets of speakers at home and also arranged a demo in the store for me at a pre-booked time. They got an ex demo pair of speakers from another branch for me to listen to. My overall feeling was that the process of choosing and buying my new speakers was a very humane and positive experience. Excellent service, good gear and good people.

  • I have been buying from the Cardiff branch of AudioT for more years than I care to remember and have always received the utmost help and courtesy. Without exception, every member of staff that I have met have been music and movie enthusiasts and would rather lose a sale than see anyone buy something that they are certain that the customer would not be happy with. I unreservedly recommend them.

I am a now a happy owner of a pair of Sonos 1 speakers and fully recommend the excellent service at Audio T in Cardiff!
    Mr Keys, Cardiff - 24th January 2019

    Customer service

    From our customers

    Mostly excellent, with nice people who try to help, little bit disappointed with being persuaded to buy a cheaper option, although the dearer versions might not be better, so who knows
