Hear the Difference!

General Info
In 1978, the city of Garland was introduced to Texas Audio Car Stereo and Security. The founder, Manny Awad, had a vision to establish a performance mobile audio center for enthusiasts to purchase cutting edge products and have them professionally installed into their vehicles. Products that would later define the 12 volt industry, such as the original Fosgate Punch 45, an amplifier whose legacy is permanently etched into the hearts of bass junkies and music aficionados alike, was a staple at Texas Audio. Good tunes and good times was what inspired Manny to not solely focus on subwoofer and amplifier packages, but also encourage customers to upgrade their factory speakers with aftermarket full range coaxial and component speakers. With the growing popularity of mobile audio products came the need to provide assurance to the customer that their vehicle would be protected, so it was only right Texas Audio incorporated Vehicle Security into its line up. Viper and Clifford, the two most influential security alarm companies quickly made their way into almost every vehicle equipped with an aftermarket audio system. Motion sensors and glass audio sensors provided an extra relief for customers in order to try and avoid a worst case scenario of burglary. Probably one of the most amazing innovations is the wide array of different mobile video applications that are offered. You can have an in dash “All in One” unit in the deck for the front passengers and rear seat entertainment can be achieved using a flip down monitor or separate headrest monitors for each of the rear passengers. Rear view mirror and side mirror monitors are also available to be paired with bullet pin cameras in the rear bumper to help improve safety when reversing your vehicle. Times have changed and things are not quite as simple as they used to be. Current factory audio and security systems offer new challenges to adapt aftermarket quality products into OEM applications. Everything from amplifier bypasses to steering wheel control integration is sometimes a must for the customer who wishes to keep the factory look but back it up with the power and clarity of aftermarket engineering. Plus the industry is offering smart phone integration and 2-way paging remote start security systems that require more complex wiring “know how” in order to complete the job with confidence in the installation. Family owned and operated for over 30 years, Manny’s strive for perfection is infused in everything we do because anything less would just not be up to Texas Audio’s standards. As it was over three decades ago, Texas Audio is up to any challenge in order to achieve a satisfied customer. Whether it is providing our expert customer service or significant knowledge on products and installation, Texas Audio welcomes you to “Hear the difference”.

I wanted to take a minute and thank Jr. and the rest of the Texas Audio group for their professionalism and quality work they did on my audio package install. Jr. Is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. No sales pressure just great salesmanship and help designing out a great audio package. The store is clean and has a wide selection of audio equipment to pick from. I would recommend this place to my friends and family. You can't go wrong with Texas Audio for sure. Give them a try and see for yourself !!!!

Absolutely loved it. Had an alarm and window tint done on my 2015 Chevy Tahoe. The two young men in the front, Tony and Gio, really went out of their ways to make me feel welcomed and informed. Everything was clean and easy to process. The work was phenomenal and after they finished they gave me a run down of how to work the alarm, explained the do's and don'ts of cleaning the window tint, gave me a bottle of water to go and I was on my way. Awesome experience. Definitely going to give them as much business as my wife will let me!!

Just got a system put in my son's truck and it was a great experience. David drew us up a system plan and showed us some different set ups. We put it all together, agreed on the price, and BAM!!, my son was the coolest kid on the block. Great group to work with, prices are great, service is awesome. Definately coming back for more!

Best Customer Service in Town. Hands down the best car audio shop to get your questions answered. They did my son's truck last week and let me tell you, as much as I tried to talk to the other big box shops like Best Buy and Fry's, as much as I researched online about all the things that go into shopping for a car audio system, it would've saved me hours of my life back to just have visited with the boys at Texas Audio. Good family owned shop, their values show in their way of doing business. My son loves his crazy booming sound system and now it's my turn to get something fun for me. Look no where further than Texas Audio.

They recently installed my Christmas gift to myself...2 x 12"subs with a 1000watt amp and new door speakers and stereo dvd navigation on my 2008 Toyota camry. They did a super clean job, explained to me why i should upgrade my factory "car alarm" to a real car alarm to protect my new investment and they even gave me free tweeters as a holiday gift! Super cool bunch of guys. Clean, fast, affordable, and friendly. i highly recommend them to everyone who asks me where I got my sound at.

Great Car Audio Expertise!!

Very thorough staff. I had bad experience in the past with other shops, but I went to them for an alarm. They got me in and out in a jiff, plus they fixed a few audio problems I had from a previous install free on the house. They didn't have to do that, but they shure as heck got my business from now on. I definately recommend them for anything car audio and alarms.

Best Car Audio Around!

I took my car and my boyfriends car to install in-dash navigation systems we purchased online. I price checked all around the metroplex and got the best price at Texas Audio. It was a haul all the way from Argyle for us, but well worth the drive. The guys there knew their stuff, saved me money wherever they could and did an outstanding job of installing our units. I also had my windows tinted while there and they turned out great. Happy to know there are still people out there that serve customers the way they would expect to be served. I HIGHLY suggest using them for any of your car audio and tinting needs!

SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!

Hopped in my car one day and while I was driving, POOF, no more music. My neighbor tellin me it might be my radio's outputs, had another guy tellin me all my speakers were blown, another guy told me my wiring was the issue.....I lost my temper and swung by the first shop on the road, which thank God, were the guys at TX Audio. They took it to the back for a diagnosis and guess what?.................BLOWN FUSE. They didn't even charge me can you believe it!! All they said to me was please refer some people their way, which is exactly what I'm doing. I would love to get them nice boys some more business from me but I don't know nothing about that boom boom music they specialize in. I did promise to bring my car in for tint and alarm when I'm ready for it. Great customer service!!!!

Fast+Clean+Quality=Awesome

Very professional bunch of guys. I went to a couple of other shops and they didn't have a solution for what I needed (ipod integration with my factory radio), but the guys at Tx Audio had an answer. While I was there I checked out a few speaker upgrades that could help me enjoy my tunes a little better, and boy did they ever! I never knew The Eagles sounded so good in a car. I give them the thumbs up and anyone who asks I tell them the same.

Best Service Ever

Out of all the places around town that I called, these guys were the only ones who were nice on the phone. I brought them my new Dodge pick up and they customized a system to best fit the type of music I listen to. They take the time to explain how things work and educate you on what your buying, which is very rare these days. Their installation was so super clean that I couldn't find one wire. Their service is great and their prices are extremely fair. I recommend them to everybody.

Satisfied customer

This is the first shop I ever been to that didn't jerk me around. They told me the install would be clean, and I couldn't find one single wire showing. They told me how much the labor would be and didn't sneak in any extra charges. They sold me quality stuff that didn't break down the following week or exactly after the warranty goes to the crapper. These boys are the real deal.

Hands down the best shop in town.

First off I want to say that I am an audiophile. I love my music loud, clean and crisp. After I bought my new Chevy Avalanche, I shopped around the big-box stores like Best Buy and Circuit City but the people there didn't know their elbows from their feet and their products weren't spectacular. I also visited a coupleof rinky dink hole in the wall bazaar shops and they just couldn't answer any of my questions, rather they tried to pressure sell me and I just don't do that. Plus there is no way I'd ever let them work on my brand new vehicle. I almost gave up and was about to order everything online (bad idea by the way) and attempt to install it myself but a co-worker of mine suggested the guys at Texas Audio. He swore up and down about how they take care of him and he wouldn't trust anybody else. So on my day off I went there and talked with Jr and he walked me through the shop and introduced me to lines, all the while asking me questions about my musical taste so that he could better set me up with a system to match my needs. We picked it all out and he even gave me a package deal discount that I didn't even have to haggle for. It's been almost 2 years since I had that work done and I have had zero complaints. It still rocks out and I'm going back this holiday season to suprise my wife with an engine start Viper alarm system (by the way, they installed my alarm flawlessly). I met Manny also, very nice gentleman, but he lets his sons Jr and Mo handle the shop. They made me feel like family.
