What customers say about Rex

“I called Crutchfield and was connected to Rex. I shared with Rex that I wanted to upgrade the sound for my son's 2012 Toyota Prius V, while retaining the factory head unit. He recommended I go with Infinity Reference 6x9's for the front and Infinity Reference 6.5" for the rear. To power these speakers, he also recommended the Kicker 47KEY200.4 since it had a low power draw that would be safe in a hybrid car. To make the installation easier and to avoid having to cut any factory wires, he also recommended the PAC Advanced T-Harness, PAC Speaker Harness Extension, and Crutchfield's Amp Wiring Kit. Everything arrived in under a week. I initially installed the 4 door speakers and was immediately impressed with the sound over the factory speakers. I had some questions regarding the amp install and left a message for Rex. He called me back and answered all of my questions. I completed the amp install and was impressed with the increased volume, clarity, and depth of sound. Thank you, Rex! It's great that there are companies still out there who hire knowledgeable, US-based enthusiasts! I will buy from Crutchfield again and trust that Rex will provide great recommendations and customer service! ”

“I am a newbie to car audio and simply was tired of not having Android Auto in my old 2007 Toyota Tacoma. Rex made the entire purchase experience SO EASY. He even provided me with his direct line to call if I have any issues with the install. Couldn't ask for better customer service!!!”

“Rex was amazing to work with! I had a couple things I had thought about, like an amp for my already upgraded speakers and a sub but totally missed my head unit until Rex asked me. He's very knowledgeable about car audio and made sure to steer me towards the gear that I needed. 10/10 would talk to again!”

Rex, thanks so much for your professionalism, knowledge and pleasant manner, never making me feel like a "Noob" because I don't know about the ins and outs of car audio upgrades. Fantastic job sir!”

David R., September 6

“I recently updated all of the door speakers in my Highlander w/ Kicker 6x9's and 6 1/2's. I also added the Kicker KEY. I asked Rex for a reco on some dash tweeters that would compliment my setup and could work with minor mods. He recommended the Kicker 46KST2004's and omg, the clarity is absolutely fabulous. They really balanced out the whole system. I played all my favorite tracks. Ha! Rex was fast, knowledgeable, courteous, and clear. Thank you Sir! ”

Mario P., July 7

Michael P., May 24

“As an engineer, I thrive on details and won't move to the next step in a project/purchase until I know everything I can about that particular topic. Rex was knowledgeable, friendly, and had/found all the answers to the questions I asked. He spoke in a nice even tone through the hour-long call, and never let on that my endless questions were bothering him. He seemed just as happy to speak with me regarding the last question as he was with the first. The one topic he didn't have answers to, he recognized right away and set me up for a call from that department the same day. I knew that I was probably frustrating him with all my inquiries; most people don't go an hour without trying to rush me along or to hang up - this was NOT the case with Rex. He just confirmed what I knew was true: Crutchfield knows their stuff better than anyone in their business, and their people are what make it a truly value-added company. Thank you Rex for your time and patience!”

Dan F., May 3

“Rex made my online shopping experience easy, enjoyable and at the same time a learning experience. Rex was patient, polite and very knowledgeable. I explained what I was hoping to get out of a new home theater system and he was helpful in every way including a few things that I hadn't thought of. It's customer service people like Rex that would make my choice to shop again at Crutchfield a no-brainer! ”

“I was on a chat with Rex and unfortunately because I was in an appointment, the chat closed out.

Grateful for his assistance. ”
