Sound & Vision

The name is vaguely reminiscent of an acid trip, and concrete reality isn't too bad either. If you get to see it, that is. Sound & Vision only grants you the grand tour by appointment. And if you have an appointment, it must mean you're pretty serious about your music and movies. This will help when they hand you the bill.

Sound & Vision isn't for the quick-fix over-the-counter kind of junkie. This store is for people who need crystal clear music and razor sharp images, beyond pre-packaged standards. Customisation is key. With over 200 electronics brands in its collection, Sound & Vision concentrates on stereo and video systems for homes as well as pubs, lounges, clubs and other places where entertainment is a bit of an obsession.

You don't just walk into the store, pick a product and have it carted home. Unless, of course, you want to. Sound & Vision offers consultancy, product, installation and after sales service. Clients come from all over India, and in Hyderabad include Liquids bar and lounge, Jubilee Hills Club, and the Sailing Club Lounge Bar.

For the householder, there's Hi Fi systems, Home-Theater systems, Plasma TVs, powerful speakers, projectors et al. The prices can go anywhere from Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 3 crore and upwards. Yes, like that.

So go ahead and keep that appointment. Make the most of your music and moving pictures. Without them, your diet just isn't complete.
