Are you ready to find the perfect hi-fi sound system for your home?

Buying a hi-fi sound system isn’t like buying other electronics such as a new TV or smartphone. After researching into the features you want, you could easily order a new television or phone online and be assured of a solid, high-quality experience from your new equipment.

But listening to music is a subjective experience that resonates uniquely with individuals. No speaker specs or measurements can guide you better than your ears when choosing hi-fi audio components. Testing multiple setups in-store is a crucial part of the speaker-buying process. Now, if you’re wondering, “Where can I find a hi-fi audio store near me in Morris County, NJ?”, Electronic Concepts has you covered.

We invite you to visit our state-of-the-art showroom featuring high-end brands like Bowers & Wilkins, Magico Loudspeakers, Anthem, Meridian, Dan D’Agostino, and more. Keep reading to learn what you should come prepared with to make the most of your visit.

1. Have a Budget in Mind

Come with a budget but leave some wiggle room. Online research can help you land in the right range, but exact prices for speakers, amps, and other audio components may differ in the store. If you’re going to splurge on any part of your audio system, do it on the speakers. A set of speakers is the centerpiece of your system and the number one component that affects sound quality.

Regardless of your budget, our team at Electronic Concepts is here to help you stay within it. We take pride in designing custom systems that maintain a balance of quality, budget, and aesthetics.

2. Know Your Space

Have an idea of the size and shape of the space where you want your hi-fi audio system. And keep your aesthetic preferences top of mind. While some people want a high-end sound system to be the focus of the room, others prefer a smaller and more space-efficient setup. These considerations can help our techs recommend types of speakers (like floor standing or bookshelf) and preamp/power amp versus integrated amplifier options. 

3. Bring a Selection of Music

This one is a biggie: we encourage you to bring samples of your favorite music to listen to in our showroom. There are a couple of reasons why. First, a system built for playing classic rock with deep bass at scream-level volumes will look different from one built for playing smooth, detailed symphonies at a quieter volume. Knowing your music tastes will give our techs a starting point for recommending speakers and other audio components.

The second reason is much simpler: you want to make sure your music sounds good. Bring your samples to our showroom in the format you’ll be listening to them on your home system. That way, you can make an accurate assessment of what sounds good and what doesn’t. And take your time with each hi-fi system you try out. Listen to a few tracks on a CD or a few songs from a playlist to get a real feel for the quality of the listening experience.    

4. Prepare to Test Multiple Speaker Brands

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: the highest-quality sound system is the one that sounds the best to your ears. So while our techs will offer plenty of speaker recommendations for you to listen to in our showroom, the most important recommendation is the one your ears make. We encourage you to listen to several options so that you can compare, contrast, and ultimately choose the speakers that sound right to you.
