Car Audio in Powell, OH

Powell's hometown car audio shop: CarPlay upgrades, speakers, amps, subwoofers and Helix DSP tuning, with same-day installs and a lifetime installation warranty.

Powell's Hometown Car Audio Shop

We're right here in Powell at 420 W. Olentangy St., minutes from Sawmill Parkway and downtown. Stop in to talk through your car, whether you want a simple JVC or Kenwood CarPlay upgrade or a full Helix system with subwoofers and custom tuning.

Since 1997 we've built systems for neighbors in Golf Village, Liberty Township and all around Powell. Most installs are same-day, and every one is backed by our lifetime installation warranty.

What We Install

• Touchscreen head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto from JVC and Kenwood
• Speaker upgrades for clearer highs and fuller mids
• Subwoofers and amplifiers for deep, clean bass
• Helix DSPs and factory system integration, so you can keep your stock radio and still get great sound
• Backup cameras and Momento dash cams, professionally hardwired
• CompuStar remote starters with DroneMobile smartphone control and security

Brands We Trust

These are the brands we trust and install every week:

• JVC and Kenwood: touchscreen head units with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Helix: premium amplifiers, speakers and DSPs, and the only DSP we install and tune
• AudioControl and Wavtech: amplifiers and subwoofers, plus AudioControl speakers for select vehicles
• Focal and T-Spec: premium speakers, plus wiring and install gear
• Memphis Car Audio: amplifiers, speakers and subwoofers
• JL Audio: amplifiers and subwoofers

Keep Your Factory Look or Go Full Custom

Not everyone wants to replace the factory radio, especially in newer vehicles with screens built into the dash. We can keep your stock head unit and add a Helix DSP, amplifiers, speakers and a subwoofer behind the scenes, so the car looks factory and sounds far better. Want more? We also build full custom systems from the ground up, tuned to the way you listen.

Backed by a Lifetime Installation Warranty

Every install we do comes with a lifetime warranty on installation, and every electronic product we sell carries its manufacturer warranty. If something we installed is not right, we will make it right.

Car Audio FAQs from Powell Drivers

Can I keep my factory radio and still get better sound?

Yes. We can add amplifiers, subwoofers and better speakers to most factory systems using a Helix DSP, so you keep the stock look, steering wheel controls and features while the sound gets dramatically better.

Can you add Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to my car?

In most vehicles, yes. We install JVC and Kenwood touchscreen head units with wireless or wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and we can usually keep your steering wheel controls and add a backup camera.

Can you install my system the same day?

Most installs are same-day service. Larger custom builds with amplifiers, subwoofers and Helix DSP tuning may need a little longer, and we'll give you a timeline when you book.

Do you tune the system after it's installed?

Yes. Every system with a Helix DSP gets tuned in the vehicle so it sounds right from the driver's seat, not just loud.

Do you serve all of Powell?

Yes. We work with drivers from downtown Powell, Golf Village, the Murphy Park area, Liberty Township and the Sawmill Parkway corridor, plus nearby Dublin, Lewis Center and Delaware.

Absolutely. Stop by 420 W. Olentangy St. Suite A in Powell, or call (614) 649-5878 and we'll set up a time to look at your vehicle.
