I was looking for turntable repair and found Bob. He was communicative on the whole process. While cleaning and calibrating, he discovered my RCA was bad. Contacted me to see if I wanted to replace it and gave me a quote on that. Cleaned, calibrated, internally grounded, and RCA replaced Excellent work!

When my Pioneer Mixer's effects knob went caput, I needed a good repair guy so I called a local guy in South Orange County and he couldn't give me a quote and said it would take up to 4-6 weeks to repair my mixer. Of course a DJ can't live that long without his most important piece of equipment so I started asking my friends. I heard about Bob at Street Sounds through a good DJ friend of mine. My friend gave him my info and Bob reached out through social media, we exchanged info, and Bob called me, instead of the other way around (amazing!). I had to drive 1.5 hours from Laguna Niguel to Beverly Hills to drop off my mixer. Bob was courteous, thoughtful and said he would call to let me know the issue and gave me an estimate. I received a call by the time I got home and he said he would have it fixed in a few days (great). About 24 hours later he called to say it was all done, ready to pick up!! LEGEND!! I was beyond impressed and wasn't even ready to pick up until a few days later. I happily drove back up to Beverly Hills and Bob had my mixer ready to go. I highly recommend any DJ or Sound person to call Bob and uses his services. If you're in LA awesome, but if you're in Orange County it's worth the drive to get the work done right by this amazing professional. I'll continue to go to Street Sounds for all my DJ gear repair needs!!

I was in need for a servicing on a pair of Technics SL-1210M5G Grandmaster Flash special edition turntables. My inquiry was responded to quickly and professionally. They offered to remove the grounds from them for me for a modest addition. I was taken aback because I never even thought I could remove something I hated as much as the ground . I've had them snag and a crate of records fall on me. Grounds are agents of chaos, i am quite certain... Anyways back to my review. I did the servicing and the add on for degrounding (is that a word? Dibs). I am incredibly happy with the end result. Quickly returned and buttery smooth. These decks are so smooth they could sell me a time share in phoenix, they glide. Will definitely call again when I need the chefs kiss touch for my tables .

Bob brought my 30 year old Technics MK2 back from the dead. It needed a complete overhaul and he turned it around in a few days for exactly what he quoted.

I was referred to Bob from a friend. I have a vintage Marantz amplifier that crapped out after years of usage. Bob was very responsive and knows his craft. He was able troubleshoot and fix it in a reasonable time frame, and I'm back to enjoying vinyl again!

Thank you Rob! Took my technics for repair. Thought I was going to need a new tonearm. He was honest and ended up fixing it so I did not need to replace it...saving me lots of money. Thank you! The real "Technics Whisperer"!

Bob from Street Sounds is a real Los Angeles treasure. He was able to recalibrate my 1984 Technics 1200 mk2 turntable, restore its tone arm lifter without a problem and was able to rebalance my platter so it no longer has a minor wobble when it plays. He also has a bunch of hard to find extra parts for the 1200 that just can't be found anywhere. If anyone has an old technics 1200 that they need restored to its original seismographic condition, Bob is your guy.

You always want to have "a guy" - you know, that individual who is so steeped in what they do, have lived and breathed it that you know they can be trusted and have a deep well of experience to solve your problem. I was a bit heavy handed while trying to swap the cartridge on my Orbit U-Turn and ripped one of the wires off. After scouring Yelp, it became very clear that Bob was the guy to get in touch with. Call him. Don't just go to the address on Yelp because his operations have evolved over the pandemic. Call him, arrange to meet with him and you will not regret it. Bob fixed my issue in record time (all puns intended), was clear in his pricing and timely with his communication. A pro. He's my go to "guy" from now on if I ever have another issue and I'll even happily pay him the next time I need to swap the needle cartridge so I don't b***** it up again.

After this visit, I have officially named Bob The "Turntable Whisperer". Not only was he able to fully service my and my partner's (2) sets of turntables, but one had its platter glued to itself, don't ask how, and Bob was able to properly repair it when no one else could!!! Dropped them off Monday close to noon, and picked them up Wednesday around the same time! If you're a serious DJ and your equipment isn't "Mickey mouse" as Bob would call it, and need servicing, he should be your ONLY option!!

Street Sounds is a godsend. I had a broken jog wheel on a Pioneer CDJ, a discontinued model at that. Bob was able to get the necessary parts and had it back in my hands in TWO DAYS. If you need a high quality repair, especially if you're on a time crunch, Street Sounds is the place to go.

I have full trust and respect for Bob and his practice. If you want the best technical service in town with no BS, this is the only place. When I need assessing, repair, or fixing of any of my precious analog gear, Bob is my guy. You can't get better service. I brought 3 Technics 1200 mkii and were all serviced honestly and effectively within a week or less. Go to Bob - 6 stars.

I had a bad RCA and ground wire on a Technics 1200 mk2s. Bob fixed it quickly and at a fair price. I definitely recommend him to anyone needing a turntable fixed.

I picked up a set of Technics 1200 mk2s off of craigslist and was having some small issues with the pitch shifters. I had reached out to some other repair places before contacting Bob. I called him on Thursday and had an appointment to drop my decks off on Saturday morning. After a quick consultation, he suggested a tune up and internal grounding; while also saying he'd see if he could find the issues with my pitch sliders. Saturday afternoon he called me back saying that he couldn't find any issues, and that he thinks I just needed a tune up. I picked my decks up on Monday morning, and they've been working great, and I haven't seen the issues since I got them. Bob was both very prompt and professional, only suggesting work he thought would be helpful and not trying to just do work for works sake. PLUS, it was great to hear some of his stories from back in the day. I totally would recommend calling Bob for your dj repair needs.
