Love this place! Store is always clean and nicely set up whenever I go in. Marlowe, the manager who helped me last time I was as in, is a really friendly, knowledgeable dude who gives great recommendations and is generally very attentive to customer needs. Lots of great selection on music. Go sunrise!!
Always great to shop here. The store manager is awesome with excellent customer service!
Well, the Sunrise Records name has been around since 1977 according to the sign behind the customer checkout. I know it has gone through a resurgence with acquisition of some assets of the former HMV music stores.
Today, vinyl has made a comeback and my sister has given me her whole collection opting for the convenience of digital music.
I’m browsing through the store today with a co-worker to see what’s here. Besides vinyl records & turntables, there are gifts like mugs, posters, T-shirts and DVD’s.
Checkout was quick and courteous.
like the store. you could find the vintage old songs at all possible.
Good selections
Staff very helpful but choice is limited in the vinyl section.
Aside from the store having some pretty neat stuff their customer service is absolutely atrocious! First time in that store today and NOT once were we acknowledged by the two employees in the store and several times we were within clear normal speaking range. No hellos or hi there. Not a peep from either one of them. How do you expect to keep a customer base when you can’t even say hello to someone in the store? We were the only two customers in the store! They weren’t even speaking to each other!! Clearly a negative environment that’s now deterred us from returning.
The two stars im giving is for the collection and the one guy who works there who has good service. There are two girls who work there who are HORRIBLE. They are snobs and clearly have no concept of what good customer service looks like. They come off like you are inconveniencing them by being there and asking for help. I only go in there if they are not working. If they are, I wont bother asking questions.
Showed up today and it was closed ?????Store was dark. No staff inside. Waited 30 minutes then left.
A good selection of musical instruments an supplies.
Good service, been buying guitar gear here for years
Very friendly staff. Bernie from rentals was very helpful & professional. The atmosphere in this store is also great. Would definitely return again.
It’s a great shop. But whenever I’m there no one wants to help me. Every employee looks too busy to help you out.
Do better.
Has all sorts of instruments that you can rent or buy,Also is a good place to get a instrument.
Staff is professional. Great musical instruments selection. Too expensive
I love this store.
We went in fully planning on spending money, but somehow the 4 employees working couldn’t seem to figure out a way to sell a guitar. Upon asking the cashier on the way out if he was the only person working there he said “sometimes I feel that way”. We won’t be going back.
Lowball trade ins. Offered 30% of the value of my equipment which was in PERFECT condition. It was heavy equipment too. I called in to get a quote which they refused to do, so I had to bring in $100’s of dollars worth of heavy equipment. I overheard one of the representatives saying the owner of the scarborough store just wanted to buy the equipment for the lowball price. I decided to just keep the equipment at that point rather then give it to these crooks.
Only supporting local music stores from now on.
3. Music of May Ltd.
Address: 63 Silver Star Blvd D3, Scarborough, ON M1V 5E5, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
Music of May is a music store with a great variety of high-quality instruments under different price ranges. It also provides music lessons of multiple Chinese and Western instruments. The music teachers are professionally skilled, and the cost of instrumental lessons is fitting and proper. The overall service is fast and sufficient with nice stuffs. The owner of the Music or May is also patient and knowledgeable, who answers the customers’ question in the clearest way possible. In conclusion, the Music of May is an amazing choice for purchasing instruments and finding music teachers!
Great shopping experience! Wonderful place for buying and learning Chinese traditional musical instrument!
Great product and good services. Lots of good quality music instruments and accessories. Fast shipping
My Kmise MI3267 has some problems, can you give me some suggestion where someone can fix it for me? Thank you.
This place is impossible to find don’t waste your time like we did
Current owner provides terrible service. I miss the old man who used to own this store. I never visits this store any more.
4. Y.C. Chau & Sons Piano Inc.
Address: 4211 Sheppard Ave E, Scarborough, ON M1S 5H5, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
Y.C. Chau sold me my first piano, a Kawai L1 digital keyboard 23 years ago, and for the price, the sound and quality is fantastic. No pressure sale, hassle-free delivery and assembly by the company, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Happy to see this company is still going strong!
明記的出品都几有水隼，它的吉烈鱼恃别爽，直得一赞。
5. Musical World FA Academy
Address: 4455 Sheppard Ave E, Scarborough, ON M1S 3G9, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
Andrew is a fantastic teacher! He is patient, understanding and great with kids. I’m very comfortable leaving my God Child with him know that she will learn and have fun at the same time!
Musical World has a wide roster of teachers and I was able to find a teacher that exactly suits my personality! I’ve been here for 3 years and I’ve progressed so far, highly recommend!
this place is fine, if you’re a complete beginner and you’re just here for guitar lessons or beginner lessons in general then this might be a place for you. what I suggest is you should find another *music lessons* because this place just seem so boring and unthusiastic. the teachers are alright but no very caring for my likeing.
I would give this a between a 3 and half-2 stars
6. G Pinto – Violinist
Address: 115 Omni Dr, Scarborough, ON M1P 5B4, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
Absolutely amazing ! G Pinto made our wedding night so special. He is so talented, would highly recommend!
If you want to take it up a notch or two at your next event, this is the performer you need. We have invited Grenville to an untold number of events including our Son’s wedding. All to rave reviews. Our guest can’t stop talking about him. We will continue to use his services into the future. You will not be disappointed. To top it all off he is the kindest person you will ever meet.
Grenville performed at my daughter’s wedding almost four years ago, but all our friends and family still talk about his amazing performance. He is very friendly and talented, and will make any event unforgettable. Thank you so much Grenville!!!
7. Deja Vu Discs
Address: 26 William Kitchen Rd, Scarborough, ON M1P 5B7, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
They only took 2 dvds but thats okay. Better than nothing
I visited the store just before Christmas. Woof, musty smell! Ah well. Their classical CD collection was very modest & I had to leave empty-handed. I’ll try them again in January once new stock (hopefully) arrives.
Im not judging the whole store with this review because i only went in to look at their record collection. To put it bluntly…. It’s horrible!!! The records are a mess. Leaning back to back making it very hard to sort through the mess. No hint of alphabetical order or categories. The selection wasnt worth the trip either. Finally the record that I was going to buy was in such horrible condition it would have been unplayable. Yet they have no trouble pricing the record as if it was in mint condition. It even said “good condition” on the cover. Which in the end was only talking about the jacket. Don’t waste your time going here!!!
They didn’t have a great selection of music but the store is organized.
Probably the worst Deja Vu out of all three. Selection and organization was weak. The only thing going for it was the prices seemed 1-2 cheaper overall on most discs.
8. Hong’s Piano Service, 洪氏琴行
Address: 50 Weybright Ct Unit 10, Scarborough, ON M1S 5A8, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
I bought a Yamaha C3 Grand piano here recently. The owners had great communication, excellent prices and the piano was delivered in immaculate condition.
I was extremely happy with the service and Roger was so wonderful. The moving process was smooth and very professional. I highly recommend this company for any piano service.
We bought a KAWAI piano from Hong’s. Great service and prompt delivery!
I’ve been goingnthere for years now! They’ve never done me wrong! Final products are always clean & professional sounding!
The best studio in the city – vibes are amazing, staff are welcoming and encourage creativity. Space and equipment are top notch. You won’t be disappointed here.
(The hallway is such a vibe and can easily shoot a sick music video here)
Great service and amazing space!
10. Phase One Media Group Inc
Address: 1121 Bellamy Rd N #5, Scarborough, ON M1H 3B9, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
What can you say about this Mecca of music is so much a part of music that hasn’t already been said?
Sound Engineers and Producers are excellent and they know their craft. Equipment – top tier.
Amazing studio to go if you want anything done. These guys are very professional and they do a great job. Very clean wrk
Great equipment but I got an engineer who was a student. MY vocals were no good. All songs re-recorded at other studios. I paid over $800 for 1 session and a few hundred for the other. No files were used.
Toronto’s best backline service. What does “backline” mean? Full musical support: Vintage electric & acoustic guitars, a wide variety of amps, drums & percussion, keyboards, P.A. equipment, staging and more. Whether you’re a power trio or a symphony orchestra you will find Kiddie Car well stocked with all your musical needs. Professional courteous service is the icing on the cake.
+++AAA.
I’ve been working with Kid Carson for over 2 years now and he always provides great service. His flexibility and ability to take last minute requests saved many of my events.
Friendly staff and wide choice of equipment to suit your needs
Just recently found this shop and I’m glad I did. Henry is a great guy, helps me find what I’m searching for and offers to play whatever I’d like to hear. The records themselves are well priced, I’ve purchased a number of $8-12 records and they sound great. Whats best is I can walk in and tell Henry I’m looking for something like The Marshall Tucker Band to BBQ to, or Chuck Berry to cook dinner with the lady, and I walk out with some great records that I might have never known existed. Shopping here will truly expand my musical knowledge and library.
Got lots of goodies there
Henry is laid back, ready to share any or all parts of his extensive, eclectic and just slightly chaotic collection with you, and amenable to some wheelin’ and dealin’ to boot!
Smaller shop, but very intimate. When walking in, the size deceives you.The place is very well organized and the gentlemen who helped us there was willing to test out every record in the store to accommodate us. Very underrated record store. 4 out of 5.
Great variety
Great record store for soca, reggae, jazz… Not so great for rock.
Decided to close up early. I made it 15 minutes before the posted 6:00pm closing; drove all the way from Markham after my shift was done.
If you’re ever in my situation, call before you waste your gas and time.
Website said they were open, even called and they said they opened at 12. I showed up at 12:50 still not open and there were 2 other people waiting longer than me. Very annoyed
5:10 pm on a Thursday, and the store is closed. Google says it’s open until 6. There is no sign or posted schedule on the door
Friendly and professional staff. Affordable rental services
This particular L&M is outstanding. I visited the store twice back in November. It’s a new location and is well stocked with pristine instruments. The staff are very helpful, both in-person and on the phone.
They have done a fantastic job with that location. Clean and pretty well laid out. I don’t like how the guitar amps are all in one section, but the flow of the store dictates that, and it isn’t a deal breaker. Staff are friendly, helpful and eager to assist. The guitar wall is gorgeous.
I was disappointed with audio department staff but nick the manager was helpful. thank you nick
Great service and convenient location. A pleasant place to get your musical needs met.
TLDR; Absolutely infuriating miscommunication resulting in me paying way more than I was told I’d have to. If you can help it, absolutely AVOID this place for fixing musical equipment.
Extremely disappointing customer service. Dropped off musical equipment for repair being told up to 150 dollars would be covered, with anything beyond this amount resulting in me being notified (so that I can decide to proceed with the repair, or decline and just lose my deposit). Find out the only coverage I get is the 50 dollars I provided as a deposit, and I would have to pay the remaining $69.00.
Later find out that the part they replaced was only $5.00 and that the remaining 100.00 was labour. And oh yeah, the real kicker is when they returned the piano, they failed to notify me that I would have to buy a new adaptor which is just racking up the cost of a repair I was under the impression would be under some sort of warranty.
If you don’t want to get screwed over by incompetent people, I’ve had far better customer service from the Markham location.
I regret renting from here. – items were missing and not carefully looked . Had to go back to collect wasted gig time z poor staff. /‘d
i tried to rent a gutiar here and had one of the worst experiences among any retail outlets that I interacted since I came to this country. I was denied the service of renting out a guitar at first because they said they needed address proof or had to pay deposit of 700 dollars. when I did provide them with the address they said I had to pay 500 dollars deposit, regardless of the address proof, which was not the case other people I know, who rented out guitars without any down payments what’s so ever . He also said that he is not required to disclose the reason for denying me the service, then walked away. It let me wondering if the reason for denying was something to do with the colour shade of my skin.
15. Walmart Supercentre
Address: 300 Borough Dr Unit 3635, Scarborough, ON M1P 4P5, Canada , Scarborough , Ontario , Canada
I am not a fan of Walmart, in fact I would rather not to buy anything from them. But my review can’t be based on my personal bios. I find the staff friendly and approachable. The store is organized nicely and clean most of the time.
Excellent
工作人员态度友好，品种多多，好大的地方啊。
Good!
Great Walmart if you like Walmart. Always come for vegetables and fruits. Clean as before and well managed.
Found what ever I wanted .
They said they’re going to interview people for two days on thursday October 14th and friday October 15th. Yet….they didnt even offer friday
I went in there and they were using the security guards as Glorified greetersand they’re not giving the Guardsenough breaks they expect you to stand for 12 hours and they don’t have enough greeters
If you have a Service animal I don’t recommend going me and my child went with their service dog they asked for document training papers or ID we tried to educate them that only programs have ID’s and that ours was owner trained and in the end they denied us access this isn’t the frist time it’s happend to. 🙁
Wow!I gotta say that Best Buy has come a long way since my last purchase, 3 years ago. The store is amazingly well designed and very pleasant to explore. It is well organized, spacious, clean, bright, and modern. Staff are energetic, friendly, helpful and resourceful. Customer service desk handling returns was respectful, efficient and hassle free. There is ample parking spaces for free. Overall, I give my shopping experience there a 9 on a scale from 1 to 10.
The best mall of tecnology
Ok
Not a big selection but understandably with Covid-19 and bei6 closed for months they will be back to normal soon
Not a huge fan of this location. Mainly due to lack of interest from floor staff to assist customers. Place seems empty mostly.
Has a lot of variety. Satisfied with their products. Their service could improve a little. Felt like they may have been a little understaffed to help everybody there. Had to wait a while before a representative could help me.
Bad customers service
Hopless. HOPLESS. 1. Gets to a checkout and we are met by … oh i cannot take cash… oh i need to go find assistant you know i take credit and debit. Listen mate i want to pay cash. One checkout open and he does not take cash !!!!
2. Came in to buy an appliance which runs on a battery. My need the longest battery life . The assistant says here 6-7 hours. I am.not convinced and check manufacturer web site –up to 1 hour. If you do not know ask. Say you dont know that is ok. But clueless is not an excuse.
Perfect pianos, great customer service, highly recommend!
I came here to choose a good piano for my child, Unconsciously, I communicate with the staff of the shop. Choosing a piano is more like stimulating my interest and improving my basic knowledge. Here is a treasure piano shop. Finally, I found my favorite piano after comparing many pianos
The sales Lucy and the technical staff Mr. Cao are very Patient and Nice . The whole communication makes me feel that this is a professional and comfortable shop. I am very happy to buy the piano here.
good
Full of piano and music lessons choices
The prices of goods here are very cheap.
They sell a decent selection of Kawai and Yamaha pianos.
Like most piano stores, the tuning is not perfect for all the pianos on display. I found it difficult to evaluate the feel of a pianos due to this.
Overall, it’s a friendly piano store with nice staff. Would visit again.
Unreliable people when they come to pick up your old piano. They keep rescheduling different days but never come through. Then they want you to call the mover and make arrangements etc. But mover never answers. Would never sell to them.
