How much will my service or repair cost?

Only what is necessary to carefully complete the work you’ve asked us to do, and no more.

Liquid Audio has quietly become one of Australia’s most trusted specialists, delivering class-leading professional service, results and value. Some of Perth’s best hi-fi retailers, Australia’s best customers, and quality-focused manufacturers like Plinius rely on us. We’d love to assist you, too!

We are one of, if not the busiest, independent Accuphase specialist in Australia. This is not by accident.

Pricing

Our sensible pricing and approach enable us to cater for a wide range of customers and equipment. Our flat rate applies no matter whether the job is Akai or Accuphase, Kenwood or Krell. No customer is more or less important than any other.

Standard jobs & technical work$150/hr
Consultation (15/30/60 mins)$39.50/$79.50/$150

  • Our $95 economy rate covers 30 minutes of workshop time, perfect for smaller jobs
  • Our standard workshop rate of $150/hour covers all other services
  • Jobs falling within a 1 – 3 hour standard work window generally proceed automatically
  • All work is billable and accounts are payable within 7 days
  • Non-local customers should view these additional considerations

Quality

Businesses championing quality and professionalism are rare these days. Many target those chasing the illusory value of the ‘lowest quote’ and, unsurprisingly, deliver disappointing results, poor work, cut corners, low-grade components, devalued/damaged equipment, multiple business name changes, and even legal issues.*

Liquid Audio delivers real value by focusing on what actually matters: quality, precision workmanship, premium parts, laboratory-grade tools and equipment, extensive experience, and knowledge backed by university science qualifications, 15 years running Liquid Audio and a lifelong passion for hi-fi and music.

Mike … you, of course, are a gem. We are so lucky to have someone as passionate, intelligent, ethical and hardworking in little ol’ Perth.

In February 2026, I purchased this almost $3K AUD Hakko FR-410 desoldering station to complement our suite of precision Hakko soldering tools and equipment. Very few small businesses consistently invest in tools and equipment as we do. Most read about such things here and then try to imitate our approach.
