Highly recommended

Matt replaced the cartridge and RCA cables on my Denon turntable. Sounds amazingly better than it ever has.
He was great taking time explaining options and sharing knowledge.
Done on time and fair pricing.
Highly recommended . Paul Fiacco

A Wonderful Experience

Matt was amazing to do business with. Extremely prompt replies to any inquiries, and a very welcoming host to demo equipment. If buying speakers, bring any reference material you'd like to hear. He can play any medium! I'll be a follow-on customer for sure, and I don't live anywhere close to Bend.

Bought the mofi source point 8’s from Matt. These were the demo units and were kept in immaculate condition. Matt explained the product perfectly and sold at a very fair price. Highly recommend him for any purchase.

Acoustic Research AR XA Restoration

Acoustic Research AR XA Turntable aka “Stock Daddy” Restoration

Amongst custom builders and restorers of vintage audio gear, Vintage HiFi Nut stands supreme. Matt finds the fundamental alchemy between a vintage restoration and a modern rebuild. He is an artist, engineer and magician.

I contacted him to build something from the broken AR XA pieces left to me by my father. There are not many who would provide the careful, precise and detailed level of service that Matt provides; there are not many who would be so patient and passionate, either, and his love for recorded audio is the equal of his own restoration abilities.

Receiving the turntable and installing the deck into my system brought back memories of my father and his joy of recorded music. In his prime he was confined to a wheel chair by Multiple Sclerosis. Unable to attend concerts, his stereo equipment became his way of receiving the joyous gift of music.

Matt has managed the astonishing feat of successfully restoring my father’s long lost turntable to life: in its vigorish sound I am reminded that my father’s legacy resides in those grooves.

Thank you, Matt. Sincerely.

Great experience with turntable

Drove out from Medford to pick up a Rega table from Matt. When I got there he had it set up so I could demo it and we listened to the table and talked for a little while. A couple months later I had an issue with a weak channel and Matt looked at it and fixed it in maybe 30 minutes while I was doing other stuff in town. I only wish it was less of a drive

Cardas Parsec Headphone cable.

I was looking to upgrade my existing factory Sennheiser cable after using my HD650s for several years. I of course reached out to Matt at Vintage Hifi Nut for options on an upgrade. Matt was extremely helpful on suggesting the right cable for my price range. I really love the Cardas cable line, so I settled on the Parsec Headphone cable. If you don't see the Cardas product in the store initially, Matt can still get it for you. I noticed right away out of the box, how much more depth and clarity I was getting from the Parsec cable. Everything was crisper and smoother. After a little over a month I can say the difference from the factory cable is tremendous in my opinion. I get very little fatigue and can immerse myself for hours with these headphones and the new Parsec cable. Cardas and Vintage Hifi Nut are highly recommended for any of your cable needs. Superior!!

Matt was fantastic to work with

Matt was fantastic to work with, all along the way. The walnut side panels Matt cut and stained came out beautifully and are an incredible enhancement to my vintage AKAI reel-to-reel deck. Matt took great care shipping the panels to me in a very well packed box. I'll be back!!! Thank you, thank you!!
