I was extremely impressed with the service I received from Steve who went above and beyond in solving the difficulties I was experiencing with my new screen when they changed the power cord because I insisted on a white cord rather than the standard one which came with the screen. When the remote wouldn’t work with the new cord Steve sourced a different sensor and sent it to me. All working beautifully now thank you Steve Jeff Show details
Bought a pair of Paradigm 800F Premier series floor standing speakers. I listened to these speakers before and had them on my list for a while. Very happy with how they sound and 'work' within my living. Since they had a good discount and marked as B Stock, I emailed a question and got a prompt call back. They turned out to be floor stock and… Read more
without the original boxes. No issue, so I ordered and they were sent out the next biz day. Received them well packaged, but unfortunately the grilles were missing. I contacted Dimple who sorted it out and quickly got me the missing parts. Great! A business with good products, good old fashioned service and a great experience overall.
I purchased a NAD M66 online. The whole process went very smoothly. The unit shipped the day after payment and was delivered by Aust Post about 5 days later. I used Dirac live with bass control to correct the room response. The bass is tight, dry and extended. No boom! Hooray! Thanks to Dimple and Abhishek for their help with the purchase. Show details

Good customer service, however, would have preferred to have the accurate stock numbers/status on online listing – Originally saw product on sale online in Nov 2021 (no indication of the item being out of stock) - purchased the item that day. Was contacted by customer service the following day that the item was actually out of stock and issues with suppliers would mean that the earliest possible delivery would be early-mid Jan 2022. No issues with this and it… Read more
was a fairly understandable problem so was happy to wait.
While I did have to chase up the item/shipping status myself at the originally suggested date, Ms. Gajjar was very helpful in updating the item/shipping status and making sure the item did actually arrive - even expediting delivery to my postal address. Big thanks to her for her help.
Would have definitely preferred to have known the products' stock status on the online listing as I likely would not have made the purchase at that point in time if I knew it would be a month+ wait. However, I should have confirmed the status by contacting the shop first and that is on me.
The dishonest salesperson gave misleading information to ensure the sale – I had already ordered my items from another company, but the lead time on delivery was around 3 weeks. I subsequently enquired at other places about stock availability and received a call from Digital Cinema. I inquired as to when I could expect the goods to arrive, to which the answer was: "within four days". I paid an extra $200 to Digital… Read more
Cinema as compared to the original order because I did not want to wait 3 weeks.
Five days went by and the items were still interstate. I spoke to another salesperson from Digital Cinema and they informed me that the four-day delivery timeframe quoted to me would never be possible and that the minimum would be five days, with a more likely figure of 15 days, due to COVID-19 restrictions.
One of the items in my order took 25 days to arrive.
My decision to cancel my original order and purchase from Digital Cinema was solely based on the assurance that I would receive the goods in a timely manner. If I had have known that the likely timeframe would be 15 business days, I never would have placed an order with them. The original advice was entirely misleading, either deliberately to ensure the sale, or out of ignorance. Either way, I was out of pocket $200 and received my order around the same time as the original.
And all they offered in way of compensation was, "sorry, it's Australia Post's fault".
Needless to say, I will not be shopping at Digital Cinema in future.
The perfect marriage of a NAD C388 Amplifier to set of KEF Q950 speakers! – A review of a Hi Fi setup using a NAD C388 Amplifier coupled to a set of KEF Q950 Speakers. I am an economically constrained audiophile. That is to say that I can recognize good quality sound but my purchasing restricted by my financial limitations. Thanks especially to Digital Cinema's Atish Moin, who made it possible for my purchase of the… Read more
said speakers. As this is my second satisfying purchase from them, the time is ripe to recommend them as a good Hi Fi vendor. This is the very first time that I have seen this amplifier paired with these speakers. Ah well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. And what a gamble it was.....jackpot! I have been on the hunt for a nice stereo system since I was 21. At 67, I can unreservedly state that I have finally achieved auditory Nirvana! Oh! Where do I begin? The NAD C388 is rated for conservative continuous power output of 150 Watts per channel with 8 Ohms of impedance. Whilst the KEF Q950 speakers from Digital Cinema are a perfect match rated for an amplifier between 15 and 200 Watts. My newly acquired speakers have finally met and married the perfect amplifier. Those who are in the market for, or already own this remarkable amplifier have no idea what lies in wait for them until they pair it up with these wonderfully capable speakers. These KEF Q950s are worth every hard earned penny I have expended on them. The rich velvet-like bass (from what reviews that I have read, the lack of bass is a common but incorrect complaint of the NAD C388 Amplifier.) and soprano type treble and the alto like mid range conspire to give you a feeling as though honey is being poured into your ears! In fact bass and treble had to be turned down to flat and the now utterly redundant sub woofer, disconnected! I can absolutely, without reservation, recommend this never before reviewed marriage between a NAD C388 Amplifier and a set of KEF Q950 English speakers. If you like me, love listening to distortion free music of any type at any volume, look no further.

Easy transaction – Have bought speakers from Digital Cinema online store on two occasions and highly recommend them. Dimple responded promptly to a query re item tracking. Products and service are excellent.
Great Service Despite Stock Issue – Fast shipping to a rural area. The only downside was that an item I ordered during a big sale, which was listed as in stock, was actually sold out. However, Dimple from Digital Cinema provided excellent customer service, keeping me updated and resolving the issue promptly. I’ll definitely be ordering more from them in the future.
Good service – I ordered a centre speaker which was delivered speedily . I had a query concerning connection of the speaker and received good feedback from Dimple
Negative reviews
Rude customer service – I enquired a discount over a KEF subwoofer. Initially the phone conversation went smoothly until I was asked to provide a deposit just for them to transfer the unit from their warehouse to their store (apparently, they don't stock in store and Sat, when I chose to pick up, warehouse is close). I refused to give a deposit. I said (and the guy… Read more
proved it), I was a return customer and have an online account with them. It sounded like I was not trusted and need to pay a deposit to an item just for them to transfer from their warehouse to their shop. I said I will drop by on Sat but will not pay a deposit as I don't want to give my account details over the phone. If they don't have it in the shop, then it's my loss. The guy told me don't bother coming and hang up on me. I called Apollo Hifi, and they gave me the same price, no deposit required. Will pick it up on Sat. Goodbye Digital Cinema. This post dated 8 Aug 2024.
Cheaper at other stores – I purchased a product from their webpage. There was an initial problem with the transaction and while they were sorting out the financial problem, i saw the same product for 10% less at a competitor. I was handballed to sales only to be told no price match. Lessoned learned. I should have shopped around before buying from Digital Cinema. Show details
False prices, bad service – I purchased 2 subs from there page for $998. Only then to be told they don't have any. I told them never mind I will wait for the stock. That's when they started to doge my phone calls after waiting for a call back which never came. They then call me up saying my money is refunded only to see they put the price up on there website minutes after my refund was processed. Anyway the guy was a lying douchbag and I hope he reads this review. Show details

Excellent customer service – Great business, excellent customer service from Dimple. Kept me up to date while the product was on order. Excellent product range and pricing. And fast post too! Thanks! Show details
Dimple was very communicative and helpful – Thank you Dimple for your communication. The process of purchasing the projector screen was a little tedious in the beginning as they initially declined my process due to an error on their end. But after that was handled it was a smooth process thank you to Dimple. Also they didn't have the exact model I ordered and so they upgraded me which is appreciated :)
Jbl Stage to Studio 698 – Digital cinema was very helpful in helping me search for new speakers. Friendly staff and fast delivery. Glad I upgraded from the Jbl stage 190 to the Studio 698. A big jump in quality of sound. Improved bass, forward midrange and tamed highs. Best speaker I have come across thus far. Thanks DC Show details
Saved the Day, I was in a quandary! – I bought a Marantz NR-1510 and had a little drama when testing the System components. Not a problem, contacted the Office and within minutes I had a phone call from a Tech; absolutely brilliant, went through the TV and new Marantz unit and everything is working much better than when the original system was installed. Fantastic! Phil Qld
Another positive on-line purchase! – The Klipsch Centre R-30C is the second product I have purchased through Digital Cinema and I am very happy to recommend this business to any customer looking for a great price, fast delivery and communication that is honest and genuine. My dealings with Dimple were very positive and I had confidence that my new speaker would arrive in a timely… Read more
period and in good condition. I have installed it and am yet to play with settings but so far it is definitely clearer and will break in nicely! It is good to know that the business I bought my Denon 3700 through several years ago is still looking after customers and still doing great deals. Please keep it up.
Could not be happier – Couldn't be happier . Great price , great service , fast dispatch . I dealt with Dimple and he made the whole process as easy as could be . Cannot recommend these guys high enough ! Will definitely be using them again. Show details

Great customer service for a DOA issue – Awesome customer service from Greg! Identified and fixed a DOA issue within a matter of days with friendly and fast service. Will shop again and highly recommend. Show details
Top Shelf – G’day Guys, Had a fantastic experience with Digital Cinema. No wait time upon phoning. Greg is a legend. He saved me $1k by providing information on wirelessly connecting my iPhone to an ol’ Denon amplifier. Dead set legend. To the owner. Greg deserves a 10% pay increase. No gift cards - just plain hard cash! Plus, a paid holiday for him and his family to the Cook Islands. Warm regards, John Hobbins twowaystolive.com Show details

Excellent customer service support – Would like to start my review off With a big thanks to Greg After purchasing a klipsch subwoofer That had a issue an having no problems in a quick return an change over Would highly recommend purchasing from Digital cinema
Excellent Service – This company was excellent to deal with and their service was first class. One piece of the equipment I ordered was faulty. They took responsibility for the faulty sub, shipped a new one the next day and picked up the faulty one after Christmas. They handled the situation perfectly and now I have a wonderful private cinema and everything works. The advice on equipment was also excellent and appropriate. Show details
Unexpected, amazing product support – First up, without negotiation Digital Cinemas' price was the best. After sale follow up technical support was unbelievable. Greg would not rest until all issues were resolved, even though he was dealing with an 80 year old non tech savvy client. Show details
Klipsch "The Fives", powered speakers – Just received the speakers, WOW. The sales advice from Digital Cinema was first rate along with the technical support. The speaker have a two stage firmware/software update available and there was no issue for the guys to do this on my behalf, I'm a very happy camper. Klipsch "The Fives" are an amazing desktop speaker, the sound quality is… Read more
absolutely excellent and the amount of bass is incredible for a small speaker ( large desktop). I added a floor standing subwoofer just for fun, not really needed and the system recognized them immediately.
I could not be more happy.
Service Well Beyond Expectation – Good service these days is a given but the service delivered by the team at Digital Cinema was exceptional. I ordered the equipment and the same afternoon it was delivered some 90 Kim’s from the store. Next step was setting it up and team member Greg came to the fore, spent over 2 hours on FaceTime helping me not only setting up the audio… Read more
