Brilliant knowledge,well stocked and friendly service. My last stylus was past its use-by. I trawled the net for a new needle. Forget it. Nothing matched... I took the cartridge into Classic Hi Fi. Instant match! Quick chat about moving coil & out the door. Now on the bus posting this. Thank you Classic, you are!
I highly recommend Classic Hi Fi for your turntable purchase. There are quite a few vintage turntable specialists in Sydney but none with quite the dedication, knowledge and passion of Ross and Sheree. They were extremely patient as I walked through a few models before settling on my JVC, and answered all my questions. The unit sounds and looks amazing and is just what I wanted. I'll be back one day to invest in an amp and speakers too.
Superb customer service and excellent turntable technician. Highly recommended! They rescued my 1988 Rega Planar 2 after two unsuccessful repairs by other hifi retailers. The Rega is singing sweetly again thanks to Classic HiFi in Newtown.
World of vintage Hi Fi. Amazing collection of speakers amplifiers etc. Staffs are friendly and happy to help. Prices are not cheap but it might give you peace of mind to buy from a proper shop like this which offers warranty.
recently purchased a Kenwood tk-250 amplifier for my turntable setup from here. while the price steeper than places like marketplace or gumtree, the service and expertise from Ross and Sheree, and their store & product range was absolutely unmatched. the option to sit and listen with my own gear to test my new amp is just something you can't really find anywhere else in sydney, not to mention with the quality of Classic HiFi's products that they sell I will be back, I'm very glad I ended up purchasing through here, the TK250 sounds absolutely amazing. I absolutely cannot recommend these guys enough !
Absolutely brilliant. Best service. Clarity, expertise and courtesy. Repaired an heirloom hifi unit to perfection with professionalism common sense and old school charm. Not all tech issues are solveable with vintage hi fi but in this case it was. I almost want something to break again purely for the pleasure of dealing with this fine company again. They have heaps of quality vintage systems ready to sell. Everybody should go in and stock up!
My 10 year old turn table recently needed some repairs. I had been into Classic Hi-Fi to buy some vinyl and an amplifier and decided that it was time to invest in a good quality turn table. It was a pleasure to meet and felt a complete sense if trust with RJ when I invested in a new Marantz turn table. I needed to confirm some details on the unit and went back two days later and was served by Ross & his lovely wife Sheree. They were amazing with their support , care and advice. The whole experience was outstanding, could not fault in anyway. I felt completely looked after and connected well with each person who provided remarkable customer service. All the very best RJ, Ross & the lovely Sheree. Craig
Let's be honest. Entering into vintage media, or vinyl at all, regardless of the item, can be daunting. I found myself upgrading a turntable with an aux cord to a BT speaker, to a much more complicated set up. And i was not equipped with the knowledge or know how in where to start or how to execute my plans. I attribute my entire system to Classic HiFi, except for my turn table. On a notable amount of occasions, they've taken the time to find me the right product and set it to specifications which suit me. On numerous occasions they've 'downsold' me on items when I was naively willing to buy items which wouldnt assist my set up, A preamp when my Pioneer SX-680 already comes with a built in preamp, they straight up argued against the purchase. They've balanced my tone arm, straightened my needle and replaced my 7" plastic bitty boppy to allow for singles... all for free, without having sold me the turntable to begin with. They've now patiently repaired and adhered to their warranty period without fault. They've helped me choose the right cartridge for my music. They even stripped and soldered my cables. All with patient and contemplative conversation. Suffice to say they know me by name, but welcome me every time. Classic HiFi are a bricks and mortar business who pride themselves in sharing their passion, not in profit. I'll be upgrading my turntable soon, and it's got nothing to do with loyalty that I'll visit them again. It's trust, I know theyll find me the right table. I knos theyll respect my budget, I know they under stand aspects of me as a listener enough to know I want a fully automated system. They get it.
I can't help but feel that some of the reviews here are quite unfair. I attended this store last Sunday, and bought a full system from these guys. I believe I was served by the owner, who was friendly, helpful, very knowledgable and passionate about the area of vintage hi-fi. He spent 3 hours with us helping us find the perfect setup. If you do not have a similar passion for vintage hi-fi, or an appreciation for the type of sound 70's equipment can produce, then this is not the shop for you. Stick to JB-HiFi, your Jonas Brothers and your plastic computer speakers.
You want great service and servicing then you have come to the right place?Ross, Sheree and Gavin who did my servicing are without doubt excellent. I took an aged but much loved Reference hydraulic Tuntable in to Classic Hi Fi and this had certainly seen better days, with a faulty motor, corrosion and blemishes of all types. The result when Gavin had finished went beyond my wildest expectations and now is playing as though new. Thanks Classic Hi Fi for a truly excellent job. Thoroughly recommend if you hadn't guessed!
