"By far the best high-end home theater company in Newport Beach. It's amazing to see how they can transform your audio/video experience and give you the right product for what you need."
William Cain
Audio Concepts is the best! I tried several digital vendors in the past and now I have my "go to" guys. They were knowledgeable, on time, professional, and reasonably priced. Strongly recommend you give them a call for your smart home, theater, security or other technology needs.
Rachel Svoboda
It makes me sad that there are so few of these shops left. Scott & Steve are both terrific guys that patiently answered all my questions. While they both know much much more than I do on the topic of home audio, not once did I feel like that. It was like 3 old friends discussing their hobby. I ended up getting a fantastic deal on a current Mcintosh piece.
Mike Lafirst
Technicians are super friendly and thorough. Really enjoy the follow up that I receive since installing my Control4 system in 2016.

Thanks to Desert Valley for always being there if ever an issue comes up with our AV System. We always get prompt service and they are always determined to get the issue solved to our satisfaction. Can't say enough good things about Justin and his employees. Thanks to Jen for going above and beyond for getting us scheduled with Thomas ASAP just recently to have a battery fixed with our alarm system.
James Staffa
I hired Desert Valley Audio to set up surround sound and multiple rooms of TV & Audio. Seth was the superintendent on the job, unfortunately I did not get the other gentleman's name. They did an outstanding job! Seth is super knowledgeable, a hard worker and a pleasure to be around. Thank you for having such great employees!
Baron Adelmann
Thank you DVAV for making our home perfect for entertaining! Adam and Jacob who completed the initial installation treated our needs and home with TLC, as if our home were their own. Jeff and Alan completed upgrade to a larger screen TV and update installations quickly and professionally.
Bob Abbott
Our experience from beginning to end was first rate, made even more special by the fact that substantially all the work was done without us being on hand. We have always been big fans on doing business locally with independent owned businesses and our trust was amply rewarded with Desert Audio.
Wayne Townsend
I had this place install cameras at my two offices and home. They did great work and the price was reasonable. Their technician, Jonathan, was professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend this place and Jonathan.
Steve Vogt
Desert Valley came in really quickly to help fix our system and did a great job diagnosing the situation. We have come to the conclusion that our ISP needs to do some repairs on the system. Thank you Desert Valley! This is my correction to an incorrect review I have previously made.
Tyler Bugeaud
Justin has done it all for me. My office, my homes and has even helped out our other business. I found him in Stone Creek Furniture doing a Media Wall and the relationship has blossomed into a great friend who knows AV! Great guy and his wife and staff are amazing. Definitely could rate them more than 5stars if it were allowed.
Ryan Jones
Dennis & Justin just installed a new TV for us. Another excellent job. Always helpful and efficient. Can't say enough about how good these guys are! Justin and Jon make a great team. They were very efficient, didn't oversell, delivered on everything they proposed and have the nicest group of folks working for them.
Martin Simonetti
I hired Desert Valley Audio Video to upgrade my home entertainment system here in Scottsdale. The reviews are 100% correct. The sales, knowledge, installation, and price we're excellent. The follow up phone call to see if everything was alright, or if I had any questions was a nice touch!
J. Busch
I work for a Advertising Agency called Colling Media and we had them do some commercial AV work. These guys were fantastic and did a spectacular job. Dennis and Justin were the guys that did our install work and we couldn't be happier with it. Highly recommended.

Dr. Joseph Palermo
We took a long time to decide which A/V company to hire. We talked to three different companies and rated them good, better, best. Desert Valley A/V came out as the best, so we decided to pull the trigger. From the beginning, Justin and team were very professional and answered my multitude of questions. I would highly recommend Desert Valley to any of my friends and family.
Zack Romero
These guys are great. Super friendly and super efficient. Have used them more than once and will use them again for future needs. Highly recommended!
Jared Kavlie
I had to get the COX minibox installed to my bedroom TV. Jeff from Desert Valley AV came out yesterday and performed all the work and did an excellent job. The new box required a software update and some trouble shooting that he did a superb job with getting everything to work. In addition he helped with some questions on Control 4.
