Support your local and family run businesses!! This is a GEM of a place. I am big on supporting local family run businesses and I was really pleased to have discovered this place is exactly that. Baron and his fam create a great experience for all that come to their door. They remember who you are and appreciate you!!! Which is awesome, considering they help lots of other people like they help me and my daughters.

Baron and Chaz are the real deal they and others that assist with the work at Sound Check Systems are talented installers and true auto equipment "engineers". They installed a complicated conversion kit from a manual to an automatic rear door opening system on my new CRV-EX. The outcome was more than I could have wished for and the work was done efficiently and for a fair price. I highly recommend Sound Check Systems.

They drilled a hole in my trunk by accident. Baron the owner went out of his way and contacted me for countless of days, and was willing to fix any issues i had and was kind enough to replaced the part at no cost! I definitely recommend their service for Dash Cams, Back up Cameras, Stereo, and alarms. I am completely blown away with their service.

I came here for an alarm install, I called first to see if they were available for me to come in. Every shop I called around was busy and didn’t even take my number or name down, but Baron from Sound Check did. Although his schedule is very busy he took time out of his schedule to make room for me to come in and get my alarm installed, and I have been needing to get one installed since I bought the car! Everyone there is friendly and cool, good vibes all around! They are honest fellows that won’t overcharge you for their work, and they go above and beyond! Thanks again guys, will be coming

Just wanted to drop a 5 star review for Baron the owner of Sound Check for sticking with me through a ridiculous process with a third party servicer. Appreciate the understanding and have always appreciated the fast service, no BS attitude of this place. Highly recommended for any and all car systems work.

Awesome experience. The owner Baron and his team were very communicative and sensitive to my wants and needs. They do great work and are fairly priced and professional. I am very satisfied with the work and service and will definitely be recommending Baron and his team at Sound Check for anyone who needs tints and/or vehicle sound/electronics needs. They do it all!

I called around multiple place to have a backup camera installed on my Jeep Wrangler. Most places gave me crazy price ranges with out much of a solid answer. I called here and I think I spoke to the owner but got a firm reasonable labor cost with confidence that the job could get done.
I drove there without an appointment hoping to getting the work done which is always a risk but glad I did. The guy working was cool and easy to talk to. He confirm the price quoted on the phone and proceeded to get the job done. Solid work with no unexpected charges.
I run my own business way and glad to see

Still refusing to fix my truck after $716 damage that had to be repaired by the dealership. Baron has a thousand excuses as to why it is the fault of the dealership for charging to much. He blames me for going to the wrong place. He was investigated by the bureau of auto repair and still refused to pay for the damage to my truck. This guy is a con artist and should not be in business.

Brought my brand new Wrangler here in '17 for a consult on replacing the radio and adding a back up camera. I made sure I clarified that they could handle this job because they did quote a bit less than other shops I went, and it was a brand new vehicle and have had bad repairs done elsewhere on vehicles I've owned in the past. Fast forward 3 years I've had to bring it in at least 10-12 times, primarily because my dash has a perma-rattle. It's never been the same. On flat roads with no potholes, speed bumps or texture the rattle is minimal, but as they increase so does the noise

Jimmy is amazing, I recently bought a 08 Honda Accord and the battery kept being drained by a unknown issue. Jimmy found that the electrical wiring on the aftermarket alarm was the real problem. He had me in and out at an affordable price. Ladies (& Gents) you cant go wrong here they are efficient, effective, and most of all trustworthy.

I recently purchased an Alpine Halo9 iLX F309 system for my 2006 Odyssey. I do not give out five stars for service very often. In this case, Sound Check Systems truly earned my highest praise. It is rare to see a company this determined to ensure a customer’s complete satisfaction. I was able to buy a system and have it installed in my car for less than it would’ve cost if I had purchased the device on Amazon and installed it myself. Later, I decided to go back and have them install a backup camera. Same story. They would not be satisfied until I was perfectly satisfied. As an irrelevant side

Just went in today to get one of my HID headlights fixed. The two guys that helped me were extremely helpful and friendly. They ensured they had a thorough understanding of what the problem was before they did anything and took the time to explain to me exactly how they were going to fix it. My headlight is back in the fight and looks great. I will be coming back for some tint in the near future. Thanks guys!

These guys do such an amazing job. They really take their time and make sure that you are happy with everything before you leave. I have had 4 cars the past few years and every single time they have done my window tint and I have never been disappointed.
If you want a place that you can trust, Sound Check is the best place in all of San Diego.

Please stay away from this company; when a problem arises Baron likes to blame the customer and not take responsibility. Sub blew within a year(under warranty), so he pawns the business side off on me to contact Sony. That's fine I suppose, but after talking with Sony the business receipt is so poor, I reach out to sound check to have another made and after 2 weeks of waiting baron says "would you like to come down to the shop and do it".
Great work initially, but work ended up being faulty and I take the blame. The reason I ask for the work here is because I'm an amateur.

If I could give these guys an extra star, I would in an instant.
Sadly, am limited to a 5-star rating.
A little backstory, I drive a Lexus IS300 and put a system in it about 5 years ago. It ran great, up until I hit major pothole last week. I tried to figure it out on my own at first, but with my system being a dual amp-dual sub setup, I came to the conclusion I would have to take it to a pro.
I could not have gone to a better place than Sound Check Systems. I was thoroughly impressed with how quickly Robert was able to diagnose and analyze exactly what was causing my stereo to ground in/out

I recently got my 2017 Chevy Cruze tinted at Sound Check Systems and I must say that the whole staff was extremely polite, professional, and outstanding in the work that they do. The owner is extremely helpful, responded to my email almost immediately and even gave me his personal cell phone number. They even checked up on me days later to insure that their work was to my liking. 5 stars everyday and I recommend them to everyone!

This may be a long review but I'll tell you that it's worth reading if you really want to fully understand my experience with the guys at Sound Check Systems.
The first time I heard about this shop was through another Yelp! review that talked about Cutting Edge Audio, the same shop I went to that couldn't fix the issues I was having with the alarm they installed. They charged me over $550 to install a Viper 5706V system in my car, and they couldn't even install the tracking system part successfully. Seems a bit overpriced to me, especially compared to what I have been paying
