After 17 years Sound and Vision have hopped, skipped and jumped over the Pennines, opening a new Audio Visual (AV) store in Armley, Leeds. Opening a store in Leeds will give Sound and Vision that essential stepping stone it needs to reach customers in Yorkshire and surrounding areas, whilst bringing the same award winning service and value for money the people of Lancashire have enjoyed for so long.

The "proof is in the pudding" when it comes to experience in the AV market, whilst competitors fall by the wayside Sound and Vision are moving forward, full steam ahead opening new stores, and doing their bit to get people spending again!

Inside the new store an Aladdin's cave of technology is waiting to be discovered, with the latest models of LCD TV and plasma television, home cinema and Hifi equipment. You will find the most up-to-date models from all the major AV manufactures like Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, JVC, Philips, LG, Kef Yamaha and Denon on display ready for demonstration.

The store will be open 7-days a week 9am-6pm and till 8pm on Thursdays, this will give customers the flexibility to visit at their convenience. Customers are free to browse online and pick up in store or browse in store and buy online, the choice is theirs. If your goods need to be delivered Sound and Vision will be offering a door-to-door free of charge delivery service to all mainland UK addresses.

Sound and Vision have never been a company to sit by idly waiting for customers to walk through the door, they go out there and grab them, enticing them in with irresistible offers and promotions. The new AV store in Leeds will bring all the benefits of a shop with the temptations of the internet price tags. Customers of Sound and Vision expect nothing but outstanding service and value for money, and the shop in Leeds will be no exception offering extended warranties, free delivery and exclusive promotions.

Being proactive is key to the company's success, using their established professional reputation, delivering a high quality service, and offering value for money, Sound and Vision have maintained a strong presence in the AV industry and on the internet for home entertainment products and equipment.

Launched as retailer in 1992 Sound and Vision have gone from strength to strength building a mini AV empire that is now more than capable of competing with the multinational companies like Comet and Currys. In 2002 Sound and Vision launched their website www.soundandvision.co.uk giving them the opportunity to connect with customers on a national scale offering the same great value and service as they do in store. Since 2002 the company has not looked back, with the website exceeding all expectations, the store in Bolton that has benefited immensely from such a heavy online presence and Leeds is expected to do the same.

The Sound and Vision retail stores also provide a vital support centre for customers to raise concerns, seek professional advice and have demonstrations of products before they buy. The Sound and Vision sales team are renowned for their expertise and professionalism, through such experience they have steered away from pushy sales techniques leading to customer returning again and again.

Starting from a small TV shop in Farnworth and after a considerable amount of blood, sweat and tears Sound and Vision today now boasts two stores and a tremendously popular website, www.soundandvision.co.uk
