It usually starts with a question
“What’s the difference between…”
That's the first question we usually hear. When you're shopping for new speakers, a turntable or the home theatre of your teenage dreams, you're faced with stacks of comparisons. Is NAD better than Marantz? Should I wait for a sale? What will I miss out on when the new model comes out next year?
Endless questions, lots of FOMO. And there should be. You don't spend $2,000, $3,000 or $15,000 on something you're not completely sure of. It's a lot of hard-earned money on the line.
Buy from the wrong place and it can go wrong: speakers that never arrive, a turntable with a cracked dust cover, an amp that doesn't deliver the sound you had in mind. And no one to call.
Why we're here
We got into this business because we genuinely love audio, and because there was a lot of faceless dropshipping in hi-fi and not enough expertise.
People keep coming back because they get attention to detail and solutions built around them, not a sales pitch. It's also why we were voted Australia's Hi-Fi Retailer of the Year. Thank you.
How we work
It starts with a conversation
When you come to us, you're in for a conversation. We want to know the picture in your head.
A record from the flea market, ready for a turntable you haven't quite chosen. A summer barbecue with crisp, clear sound drifting through the open doors. The kids home with their mates, lights out, lost in a movie in the home theatre that's your pride and joy.
Once we know exactly what that looks like, we'll want to know what you're working with.
What we'll ask you
- 01 What kind of budget have you set aside?
- 02 What does your existing set-up look like?
- 03 How big is the listening room you have in mind?
- 04 How much ambient light comes in?
- 05 Drywall or wood panelling?
- 06 Carpet or hardwood?
- 07 What about room resonance and reflection?
No idea what we're going on about? No worries. We'll talk you through all of it.
Tested, not told
We don't take a brand's word for it.
We've developed our own testing process and source only from the most reliable brands and trustworthy suppliers. So every recommendation comes from hands-on listening, not a spec sheet.
Our promise
Personal. Seamless. Painless.
-
01
Personal
Uniquely you in musicality, design and taste. Your options are hand-picked by us from some of the world's biggest, best and most dependable brands.
-
02
Seamless
We're only small. You get one of us, not one of dozens of salespeople working on commission and pushing the most expensive products.
-
03
Painless
We don't recommend anything until we're clear about your needs. For us, the job isn't done until your equipment is safely installed and sounding exactly right.
The team
The people you'll talk to
Audio specialists who know brands, specs and installation like the back of their hands.
Junior Pawperations Officer
Hudson
I'm the newest and by far the smallest member of the team at The Audio Tailor, and as Junior Pawperations Officer, I can assure you the role is in very safe paws....
In loving memory
Chief Pawperations Officer
Hugo
Hugo was our Chief Pawperations Officer, and for years he was the first hello anyone got at our door. He was family long before he was staff.
