I often get asked – why do people drive hours from Faridabad, Noida, Ludhiana, and even Jaipur to visit Times Audio in Gurgaon? The answer is simple. People who care about sound do not settle for average.
At Times Audio, we do not sell ₹1 lakh budget systems. Our home theatre systems start from ₹10 lakh and go up, excluding recliners and interiors. We work with brands like Marantz, Anthem, REL, Q Acoustics, Dali, Klipsch, Cambridge Audio, Paradigm, Bowers & Wilkins, and Wharfedale. Each of these brands has its own sound signature, strengths, and purpose.
For example, a recent client from Noida came to us after visiting multiple stores that pushed budget AVRs with bundled speaker packages. He wanted a cinema that felt like AMB Cinemas in Hyderabad. We installed an Anthem AVM processor with Paradigm speakers and dual REL subwoofers. He called me after the first screening with his family. His words were – “I finally felt bass in my chest without it sounding boomy.”
Another client drove from Ludhiana. He runs a manufacturing unit and has little time for trial and error. He told me – “I don’t want to waste ₹3–4 lakh and keep upgrading every year. I want a system that will satisfy me for the next ten years.” For him, we built a Marantz separates-based system with Bowers & Wilkins tower speakers. The clarity in vocals, especially for old Ghazals and classic Bollywood, left him stunned. He ended up adding a Cambridge Audio CXN streamer for high-resolution streaming, unlocking details he had never heard before.
Why do they come to Gurgaon for this? Because there are very few places where you can hear these setups before you buy. In most stores, you only see boxes on shelves. At Times Audio, we set up full systems, tuned and ready for listening. Clients walk in and hear exactly what they will get at home.
Architects and interior designers also bring their clients to us. Recently, a South Delhi architect designing a villa in DLF Phase 1 brought her client here. They wanted a dedicated 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos home theatre. After demoing multiple setups, they finalised an Anthem MRX receiver, Q Acoustics in-wall speakers, and dual Klipsch subwoofers. We worked with their team to integrate acoustics, projector throw distances, and ventilation – aspects many overlook.
For us, it is not just about selling boxes. It is about creating an experience that delivers value for 10–15 years. Our clients appreciate the transparency – we tell them upfront what to expect and what not to expect.
If you are an audiophile, a luxury homeowner planning a dedicated theatre, or an architect designing an entertainment space, I invite you to visit us. Hear for yourself why people drive hours for sound that moves them.
Because at the end of the day, a home theatre is not just a room. It is where your family gathers for movies, IPL matches, concerts, and memories. And every time you press play, you deserve goosebumps.
