Dear Mike,
I just wanted to tell you what a great employee you have in Drew Townson. He not only knows gear but also has an artistic understanding on how to use it. He could not have been more informative or polite.

Thank you for having him on your staff.

Best,
Kyle Querec
 
Hello Drew,

I suspect you typically don't hear from customers when things are going good. As I strive to not blend in with the crowd, I wanted to do what the typical customer does not do–inform you that things are going good. The items came in earlier than projected and we have installed all but the VC control. To quote the guys at the conservatory–the engineers that did the set up, "we hardly run into these type of situations where things are working without a glitch. From the VTC, Patchbay, Aurora 16, AES16 and Protools, everything is talking to each other well.

Drew has been great to work with, and the Avalon & A.D.L. 1000 are also VERY COOL. I appreciate all the service I have had from you guys, Thanks a lot.

What I would like to commend (Drew Townson) for, was that I described to him what my objective was and he provided me with a series of recommendations to consider. He let me study the alternatives and was most helpful when I finally made my choice. I DO NOT like to be sold anything, but he simply provided me with the choices and let me “sell” myself. A great technique in my book.

Look forward to future purchases with Vintage King.

Thanks

Just bought 2 API 512Cs and an A Designs 500HR. After having some trouble hooking them up I called my salesperson back with some questions. Drew Townson was very helpful and knew the problem right away (it was a balanced/unbalanced cable problem).

Now my preamps sound awesome! Thank you Drew and Vintage King. Awesome service for some great products.

Vintage King Forever!

Hi Drew,

I wanted to thank you for your excellent and expedient service in getting the Antelope package to my dorm. I really appreciate the attention you gave to my father's order to get the shipment on time and so far, I'm breaking it in and its sounding great! I would love to thank the management involved as well if you could forward me their email, since they did such a great job.

Thanks again!

Best,

I am writing this to show my sincere appreciation for all the good and extra friendly service that was extended to me as a result of a recent purchase from Vintage King Audio.

I am especially grateful to Drew Townson from your sales department for his patience...trying to get me the right stuff and also for going the extra mile to make sure the Rok Box DAW computer that I ordered arrived at the correct address on time.

I must add that I have already spread the good word about Vintage King Audio to all my friends, and although there are so many other Pro Audio stores scattered all over California, you guys really stand out in a very special way. I will definitely buy again.

Once again, thanks Drew!

What made you want to work with Vintage King?
I have worked with VK on and off in my other Pro Audio endeavors over the years. I have always been impressed by their professionalism, straightforwardness, and vast product knowledge. They have always treated me well – with respect – and I know that’s how they deal with their clients. Plus, and this is not a small thing, they have the absolute biggest and best selection of awesome gear I’ve ever seen. At the end of the day, I’m a gear junkie like the rest of us!
