KCAV was amazing to work with and helpful in so many ways! We used them for 3 events this summer and they were so great to work with! The staff was so friendly and eager to help us with everything! Roy was more than happy to help with each event and made sure we have everything ready to go to make our events perfect! We will defiantly be using KCAV in the future for all of our audio and video needs!
Our school used KCAV for a recent project. They were great work with! Bobby made recommendations and Jerry support us in our efforts to obtain an additional piece of equipment due to a promo that has helped our school tremendously. The service was great, the timing was great, and so was the cost in the end. Great experience for our team!
KCAV has helped with my companys huge all employee meeting for 2 years now, and weve been blown away with their services each time. I dont have a single negative thing to say about them. Roy is great! Highly recommend.
Very friendly & professional. They offer quality equipment with great assistance and education on the use of anything rented. They also made themselves available, if need be, after hours if anything should come up at the event we were hosting. Top notch.
I highly recommend KC Audio-Visual if you want the peace of mind during your event so you dont have to worry about the technical aspects and can rely on someone to be in control. Jerry and his staff were flexible and provided assistance with very little notice. I was appreciative that our job wasnt too small for them to handle with care and confidence.
I was responsible for the purchase of an Elmo document camera and projector system for the Miami Co. KS Quilters Guild. KC A/V made it VERY easy! Their sales person was very on-top of the whole purchasing process and Paula got the system into my hands and did great follow-through. Thank you Bobby & Paula and KC A/V!
My experience with KCAV, and especially their Technician Joe Bergen who was assigned to my case, has been nothing less than exceptional. The knowledge, patience, professionalism, along with the attention to detail and communication skills demonstrated deserves nothing less than a 5 Star Rating, and Im stubborn.I had a particularly challenging situation and the Staff, from top to bottom were of the highest caliber.I assume that I was assigned their best technician, and that really paid dividends for me and my Organization. Keep up the good works guys!!!
Our Homes Association has used KCAV for rental of a PA system, which is a microphone and speaker set up. We have rented from them for the past 3 years and all the equipment is in great condition and works for what we need. Ordering is easy and they are located close by. We have rented equipment that needs corded power and we have rented speakers with battery power. Both work great. Recommend them for rental of AV equipment.
These guys make my life easier! Paul in rentals is a great guy and always takes excellent care of our companies needs. If you have a meeting and need to rent equipment go with KCAV you wont be disappointed.
Excellent work! Extremely professional! We had them come in over Christmas break and install 50 projectors at 4 schools. They worked extremely hard and had the project done in 2 days. The installs looked great. Tim Ryan was the sales person. He came out and visually inspected the job twice to make sure we had everything we needed and to help save money. On the installation day Tim again made the 2 hour trip and then helped load and unload all the equipment at the locations. One concern was the mess after installation (ceiling tile dust, boxes, old equipment) when I talked with the custodians they were amazed at how clean the rooms were and how tidy the boxes and old equipment had been placed. We will be using them again.
Fantastic very knowledgeable staff. Have purchased over 100 chrome books, 3 - D printers and smart boards and speakers. Dane and Alan were great to deal with!
I rented two speakers, a small mixer, and a few mics for an outdoor wedding. The two employees were easy to work with and attentive to the requirements of the wedding location. Im going back if another crazy friend wants a wedding half a mile for the nearest house!
KCAV went above and way beyond when installing the sound and video system in our new gym. It was a great pleasure on our end to work with a company and its employees that had our best interests in mind the whole time even though it may have been an inconvenience for them.KCAV definitely made us feel like we were the only customer they had.
KCAV has handled our AV needs for past couple of years. They are partnership focused, professional, friendly and will get the job done right!
This location has no display area nor storefront, and appointments with a sales rep/engineer is expected/recommended. The sales team was professional and friendly.
Jerry and the entire KCAV team has been great to work with. I have used them for several AV projects and they are responsive and want to make sure everything meets our needs.
We have been ordering IFPs from KCAV and recently have had a problem with one of our orders. They stepped forward and helped us resole our problem in a timely manner. They also helped find training on the new equipment. I would recommend them .
They offer top quality service and training. Their follow through and customer service are OUTSTANDING!
Was looking for microphone systems. My initial phone call was good. Called back the next day and literally got cussed at and then Randy hung up on me. Not a great way to build the customer relationship they claim to want.Heres the person I was speaking with.Randy Adler, President/Principal, Kansas City Audio Visual Inc.Quote from Randys email to me:I have to be honest with you, we offer service support and knowledge way beyond the internet. If you’re looking for help and want to pay for it call any time.Yes, you will pay for it.Service? - hang up on potential customers, then send them an email (with no apology) trying to sell customer service and support.Support? - after the first call, if youre not buying our product or paying for this phone call, to quote Randy, dont F***ing waste my timeKnowledge? - questionableThis place will likely be out of business, unless things drastically change.
The staff is courteous and responsive and great to work with. They met our special request affordably and with only a short notice.
I am the Executive Director of a performing arts company in the Kansas City area. I have had outstanding service and expert knowledge provided to me by Paul Heckman and Bobby Cardwell over the last 6 years. They are responsive to my needs and respectful of my budget, while still providing quality products and solutions. Paul has also come to our aid on many occasions to provide much needed rental equipment for our live musical productions, most of the time with little or no advance notice. I highly recommend these two individuals at KCAV.
We hired Kansas City Audio-Visual to assist us with our audio-visual needs for our annual event in March of 2017. With hundreds of people in the audience, we had no room for error. I can’t say enough good things about KCAV. They set up sound and video equipment and operated it for us. Everything went off without a hitch. Sean and Paul were always responsive when helping to plan the event, and Sean was so great to work with the day of the event. Working with KCAV was a fantastic experience, and I strongly recommend KCAV for your future audio-visual needs.
Kansas City Audio-Visual took amazing care of us! All the way here in NYC!!!! Thank you for the amazing customer service and care!!!
We had the opportunity to work with KCAV (Jerry Bernard and his Team). Not a little project! We had them all over the United States purchasing, shipping and installing equipment for our Training needs. Working with KCAV was refreshing. Jerry and Team took the time to understand our needs. They made recommendations based on what we were trying to accomplish and executed flawlessly in an extremely complex and time-bound project.Hats off to the KCAV Team and Jerry Bernard. Well Done!Paul Pritchard SU Operations Manager Sprint
Do not use this company. We had them onsite and spec out a system. We cut them a 12K PO and never heard a word from them over the last 2 months. There was no communication from them I had to follow up multiple times and only got we will get back to you shortly. I canceled my order.DONT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH KCAV!!!!
Great work ethic and supportive staff all around!
We took a projector to KCAV to see if it could be repaired. They charged $75 to evaluate and determine it could not be repaired but said they would apply the $75 toward the purchase of a new projector.Based on the projector we brought in, Randy Adler (KCAV President) specified and sold us a new projector. We rented the equipment (scissor lift) to install the projector, and we found the projector was specified incorrectly. It was much larger than the screen and could not be adjusted!Randy Adler said he would apply the cost the projector he incorrectly specified to the purchase of a different, more expensive one, but did not feel responsible in any way for getting it wrong the first time. Seriously ... he takes unprofessionalism to new heights. When talking with him, it was obvious that customer service means NOTHING to KCAV. He speaks about all of the big contracts they have with governments and school districts, but offers no responsibility for being incompetent. He feigns being insulted as a way of acting the victim rather than owning up to his mistakes. I was embarrassed for him.They have been in business for 60 years so you would think they must be doing something right. ...right? Well all I can say is there is no way they can be in business another 60 years with the way Adler does business.The only reason I did not give them zero stars is because the technician (Joe) KCAV sent to install the 2nd projector -- at OUR COST -- both labor and equipment rental (yes, that is right, they do not even have their own equipment) -- was a very experienced, professional. The second projector Randy sold us was also off the screen but only slightly -- the technician was able to make it work.We now warn everyone that will listen that KCAV should not be used for AV services and sales -- save yourself unnecessary expenses & grief and go with a company that is professional & customer focused.
Rude and unhelpful.
Solid AV professionals.
