Auto-generated from all reviews of this business. For reference only.Well packaged (vinyl record), exactly as advertised, price was great and it arrived 7 days sooner than the estimated delivery date - never a bad thing! Was able to get a rather hard to find LP, I'll be shopping at WWS more for sure. Thanks!
Fast ordering Fast shipping great communications. Will buy again Ty!!!!
Ira answered my questions about jacks on my Integra 8.4 receiver in a matter of a few minutes. Ira is very friendly and give great advise on product questions.
Nice fast service! I think they were even able to get it out the day I ordered. I know that's not always going to happen but it was great this time.
I read a lot of reviews on this receiver, they are pros and cons. I’m not looking for the best just an entry-level receiver that will work have not received it yet. The best part no sales tax and no shipping cost. That’s a big deal to me.
Thank you! Very happy with my purchase.
Ordered then shipped a few hours later—Great job!
2 day shipping was quicker than expected. Needed the noise cancelling capacity asap. Thank you.
I ordered a replacement stylus for my turntable. Cost was $160. It arrived quickly and undamaged, but I feel it should have been more securely wrapped. The manufacturer's packaging is a plastic case inside a small lightweight cardboard box 1.5" square. This was placed in a bubble wrap envelope with no other protection. It could have easily been destroyed/crushed. While it wasn't, I would have expected better protection for a delicate item in lightweight original packaging.
I was trying to decide on which speakers I needed to buy. So I used the chat feature on their website. Not only did a live person come on right away, there were no awkward pauses...it's almost like we were texting real time. Ira was prompt, professional and honest...and I appreciated it even though I did not end up purchasing from them.
Fast Shipping, great price and I am very happy with the earbuds!
Easy to use online interface to review albums among hundreds of albums. Order came quickly and good email updates from WWS.
Since another retailer made an honest mistake of sending me the incorrect unit asked if the item was actually IN STOCK and NEW. Ira replied it was so ordered.
Always top notch when dealing with WW. I bought a kicker down fire box & when I recieved it, it was busted(it was dropped) so I called them & told em & they said bring it in & they gave me a new one. No questions asked.
Ira was amazing! He helped me select the right components to coordinate the sound for my selected space. It is such a wonderful system and exactly what I had hoped it would be. Ask for Ira - he is helpful, knowledgeable, and listens to what you want to achieve. Highly recommend!
Responsive customer service when I reached out. Was initially promised notification of when my item shipped, but I had to request an email with tracking number. Took 6 days to get the item out of the warehouse and another 6 to get it delivered. Hence, 4/5 stars
I shop on-line and purchase from World Wide Stereo long distance. After buying 2 Cambridge Audio components last year I again engaged Ira Segall for his expert advice and assistance in buying a new turntable to replace a 45 year old Thorens. Ira, knowing my overall situation, recommended a Pro-Ject Debut Evo 2 Turntable. Because of the price I had not considered one prior. After a quick review I knew spending a bit more would be worth it. This turntable, handmade in the Czech Republic, has the look and feel of high end audio equipment. I chose Satin Red which is beautiful and classy. We had to level the turntable on our rack slightly using the damped adjustable feet which made this very easy and precise. Setting the tonearm counterweight and anti-skating weight proved easy. All the connections are very secure. It is a manual turntable, with no gimmicks, just like I wanted. We tested our new system with a very clean vintage Deutsche Grammophon recording of Mozart chamber music and were blown away by the full clean sound. We could really hear the distinct sounds of the various instruments. I look forward to moving on to the blues, classical, country, jazz, and rock in our entire collection expecting to hear some sound that I never have before. Great advice and a great product, as before.
Ease of ordering and speed at which my speakers showed-up...
