The number of people who tell us they are confused or have not been satisfactorily treated while searching for home cinema, hi-fi or a video purchase is truly amazing. However, there is a more viable and attractive alternative to the chain stores, where it is often difficult to select an item amongst the maze of products that all look and sound the same. They claim to be specialists, but also sell everything from kettles and computers through to fridges and beyond. Is that the sort of ‘specialist’ you want helping you choose your audio visual gear?

Location: Across Australia, from far North Queensland down to Hobart and across to Perth, there is a group of more than 50 audio visual specialist stores who are real experts and specialists in their chosen field. They are not part of any “chain” but are independently owned and have attracted and employ a team of people who are very enthusiastic about what good home entertainment can do for you. They know what’s hot and what’s not.

Our Goal: Is to provide you with something better in both products and service. We want you to be confident that you’ve made the best choice and get all the performance you expect. There is no high pressure, just people who love helping people with everything a/v. Surprisingly, our quality products and expert advice cost no more!

Benefits: Shopping at a Specialist Audio Visual Store has far more benefits than you may think - especially if you want more than just a great price. For starters, you’ll be greeted by knowledgeable sales people who take the time to discuss and demonstrate a variety of home-entertainment options. Importantly, you’ll be able to experience movies and music in comfortable spaces, where the sole purpose is to show off high-quality audio visual gear. Another benefit is choice. Each a/v specialist within our group sells the brands he likes best – not what the big chiefs in an office far away decide - so you know that he is recommending products that he and his staff are satisfied offer the best in value and performance.  If nothing else, you’ll leave the store with a newfound appreciation for today’s home-entertainment scene and an idea of what can (and can’t) be done for the money you’re willing to spend.

True Professionals: Many people today are contemplating elaborate home cinema systems incorporating a projector and multi-room a/v systems with TVs in every room. Well, this advice applies. Stay away from the neighbourhood electrician who “installs audio systems on the side” and see the people whose mainstream business is audio/visual. You want a professional who specialises in audio/visual gear, not a guy who just moonlights! Many of our Members are also quite proficient with designing and installing the latest architectural ‘smart-home’ technologies, incorporating lighting and security in addition to state-of-the-art audio visual systems.

Magazine and Web Site: To help consumers make a better choice, we have a ‘free’ Magazine that has been specially prepared by a team of enthusiasts who between them have many decades of experience and have contributed the various articles. Contact your nearest a/v specialist for a post free copy, or simply read the current issue on-line.

In addition, our web site - www.yavs.com.au – is one of the most authorative consumer web site on all topics that are Home Entertainment related. It contains all the usual Retailer contact details as well as links to the top Manufacturers web sites, but in addition has a very special and “Helpful Topics” section which has articles written by the real experts and all 100% jargon free! It is designed to help you make a wise decision when it comes to purchasing audio visual and hi-fi components, home cinema or multi-room sound systems.

Magazines and web sites can answer a lot of questions, but nothing compares with personal service from people who care, so please come and see us for a chat. You’ll be glad you did! Click here to find your nearest a/v specialist.

Cheers!
