Hi-Fi Shop — Bristol, Bath & the South West

Hidden Home Technology is a high-end hi-fi specialist serving Bristol, Bath and the wider South West. Rather than a high-street box-shifter, we are a curated audio retailer and installer: we help you choose, match and set up a system properly, then audition it before you commit. If you are looking for a serious hi-fi shop near Bristol or Bath — somewhere to hear reference loudspeakers, amplifiers and sources in a controlled listening environment — you can arrange a private audition with us.

We carry premium audio brands available through us, and we set every system up by ear and by measurement, in your room or ours. With over two decades of custom-installation experience, we treat hi-fi as a system to be matched and tuned — not a list of boxes to be sold.

Audition high-end hi-fi in person

The best way to choose a system is to listen to it. We invite music enthusiasts from Bristol, Bath and across the South West to arrange a private listening session in a proper, treated listening environment, where you can hear reference systems set up correctly rather than guessing from a spec sheet.

• Reference loudspeakers, amplification and sources, set up in a treated room
• Unhurried, by-appointment auditions — bring your own music
• Honest system matching: components chosen to work together, to your taste and room
• Guidance on every part of the chain — source, amplification, speakers, cabling and support

To book a session, get in touch and tell us what you currently listen on and what you would like to hear.

We curate and match systems — we don’t box-shift

A great hi-fi system is more than the sum of its components. Speakers have to suit the room; amplification has to suit the speakers; the source has to do the recording justice. We start with how you listen and the room you listen in, then recommend a system that is balanced end to end — and we are just as happy to say a cheaper component is the right one.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a hi-fi shop near Bristol or Bath?

We are a high-end hi-fi specialist serving Bristol, Bath and the South West — not a high-street chain. We curate, match and install systems, and we arrange private auditions by appointment in Bath so you can hear reference systems properly set up before you commit.

Can I audition hi-fi before I buy?

Absolutely — we encourage it. The best way to choose loudspeakers, amplification and sources is to hear them properly set up. Arrange a private audition with us and bring your own music; we will help you compare options and find the right match for your room and your ears.

What hi-fi brands do you carry?

We carry a curated range of premium audio brands, all available through us. You can see the brands on our brand hub. Rather than stock everything, we focus on components we know perform and that we can set up and support properly.

Do you sell hi-fi online or by mail order?

High-end systems are not something we distance-sell. Because the right system depends on your room, your taste and how the components match, we recommend an audition or an initial conversation first. Get in touch and we will arrange the best next step.

Do you install the systems you sell?

Yes. We design, install and calibrate complete systems, including dedicated listening rooms with full acoustic treatment, speaker placement and system tuning. See our room acoustics and hi-fi pages for more.
