He is great! When he says the customer comes first, he means it; and gets the job done right!----S. H. Berk, MD **★★★★★ — JR DiAndrea, May 2024** > Of course the equipment is the end game but for me service is the most important "product" an audio dealer delivers. Jay defines the word "Service". Everyone says it, Jay lives it. I can buy equipment anywhere. I can only get this level of detailed service from 20/20 Evolution Systems. **★★★★★ — Lee, Feb. 2024** > Mr. Truitt from 20/20 Evolution Systems is a class act. When I first met him, he told me that he is in the business of building relationships. He is a man of his word. After carefully listening to my personal preferences, he designed a stereo system for me using some of the finest tube audio gear from conrad johnson. The result was a sound in my home that is just intoxicating. What you get with 20/20 Evolution is an individualized boutique service that is shaped by exactly what YOU are looking for. Mr. Truitt is a leading expert in several fields and he brings that expertise to you when designing a system for YOUR home. With 20/20, the owner answers every phone call, tends to every question you might have, and he makes sure to earn your trust and respect. Mr. Truitt believes that selling a product starts with the service he provides AFTER you get the product into your home. He is not just interested in selling you product after product. What you are getting is a professional whose passion is to make his clients happy and stay happy after you have lived with his design choices. In my case, Jay put together a world class stereo system that I never could have imagined using the reputable Conrad Johnson electronics. After a decade of trying out the most exotic gear from all of over the world, I no longer need to wonder if there is something better out there. With 20/20 Evolution, you can finally trust the professionals to design you a system that fits your personal tastes. There is no equal to 20/20 Evolution Systems. **★★★★★ — Teresa Beck, Oct. 2023** > We could not be happier with the home entertainment and sound system installed by Jay and his team. From the very moment he met with us to discuss the project, he was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. He did a great job communicating with us throughout the installation process and his recommendations on the choice of equipment that would work best in our remodeled basement were spot on! The quality of the workmanship and the sound coming from our speakers is amazing! This aspect of our basement remodel, which was initially an afterthought, has actually turned out to be what we enjoy the most! Thank you Jay, Wes and your team for going above and beyond our expectations! **★★★★★ — kenken301, July 2023** > Jay Truitt of 20/20 Evolution was exceptional and very knowledgeable of his products. Specifically, the brand name (Zestos). Jay has been in the business for at least 2 decades now and will always be my go to for expert advice for my audiophile purchases. > Keep up the good work Jay!! **★★★★★ — HD, June 2023** > My encounter with 20/20 Evolution systems has been extraordinary and truly unlike any other experience that I have had with a high end audio business. Jay Truitt, the owner of the company, is an electrical engineer, and literally understands high end audio unlike anyone else in the business. It is no wonder that he has consistently won at various HiFi audio competitions over the years. > Rather than just selling hifi equipment, Jay gets to truly understand your audio needs and he can upgrade your current system to another level by changing internal components, or he can get you into a new system that will have you amazed as to how audio can sound so realistic. > Just when I thought I was ready to give up on high end audio, Jay has exceeded my expectation by a huge margin. > Aside from his audio expertise, Jay also happens to be one of the nicest persons that I have met. > If you are considering an investment in your enjoyment of listening to music, you should absolutely consider 20/20 Evolution Systems. **★★★★★ — HU-442237724, Feb. 2021** > Jay and I first met in 2015. We started working towards my theater project for my new home to be delivered in 2016. The project was very complicated, could possibly be compared to a research almost. Jay never lost hope and stayed close to the discussed budget. The project got delayed due to many complications and unreasonable requirements as well as lack of vendor support, but was delivered 100% true to the original vision. It’s also worth mentioning that after 5 yrs of regular use, not one component of the project has failed and continuous to deliver the same experience as its first day of use. > > Jay is not your run of the mill ordinary home theater guy, he is capable of building stuff that is presented in big CEDIA like shows. Go to him with your most unusual home theater dream and watch it become a reality. **★★★★★ — chad de silva, Feb. 2021** > I cannot say enough kind things about Jay and the team at 20/20 Evo Systems. Jay is one of the rare few who cares more about customer satisfaction and building long-term relationships over eking out every last penny of profit on a deal. In this day and age of transactions over relationships, that is a rare thing and very much appreciated! > > I was a little nervous about buying a high-end rack sourced overseas from someone I had never done business with before, but Jay exceeded my expectations at every turn. When something did go sideways (due to the distributor) Jay was there to ensure I was taken care of. > > This company comes with my highest recommendation and I can’t overstate enough the value in having a trusted partner for all of your high-end audio needs! **★★★★★ — Rajesh Raghunathan, Feb. 2021** > I wanted to upgrade my Media Room setup to the next level and early 2019, I started my search to identify a provider for this project. While I was about to finalize, Jay from 20/20 Evolution Systems reached out. Jay came in immediately and spent a good hour or so to understand the current setup, what my expectations were, budget considerations and aspects were I was open-minded to take alternate options and/or suggestions. Based on the information gathered, he worked out a plan and the journey started. Almost 3 years since I started working with 20/20 Evolution Systems, I am more than glad that I went with Jay. There is a night and day difference between what I had and what I am enjoying now. One thing Jay doesn't do or isn't good at is that he doesn't push the customer at anytime. He accepts and understands the budget constraints and comes up with solutions that works within the financial boundaries but delivers a whole different level of quality. > > So far Jay has completed 4 major projects in my place - Rewiring the room for ATMOS setup, 1st round of upgrades (On the wall to In Wall speakers, 4k setup with Projector & Receivers, 120" to 135" screen), Sound Treatment using Art Novion products and finally, the 2nd round of upgrades (moving to AV separates). Given the dimensions of my Media Room, there were challenges every step of the way and Jay was ready for it. Jay & his team are very friendly and provide great customer service - Customer Satisfaction is very important for this team and their customer service levels are at a very high level compared to other providers. Jay has good rapport with Equipment Dealers and manages to get really good deals on Equipment as well. On top of all this, Jay is very passionate about Clean Power and his advice on gear to get clean power to equipment to improve the quality is very true. > > I would very strongly recommend Jay Truitt & his team for any AV work as he is passionate about this. You can definitely trust him to work wonders to provide you with a high quality system. I have a good friend in Jay now and would always leverage his expertise for any of my future AV project upgrades. **★★★★★ — HU-864668131, Jan. 2021** > Jay Truitt of 2020 evolution as others have noted is truly a rare professional audio dealer in this industry.I own a pair of Kharma speakers that I had bought used and had trouble getting them correctly placed.Jay was kind enough to guide me through the whole process via the phone over several conversations . I’ve never met Jay nor have I purchased anything from him and yet he provided me that service without a fee .My system sounds so much better now . I would not hesitate to buy stereo equipment from him and I look forward to meeting him. Jim NJ **★★★★★ — HU-707922053, Dec. 2020** > I had some issues in my audio system requiring diagnosis, and then the evaluation and installation of a new amplifier and cables which I bought from 20/20 Evolution Systems. Jay Truitt was absolutely first rate in terms of knowledge, enthusiasm for high end audio, and diligence beyond the call of duty, in getting my system improved and up and running. Also he is a pleasure to deal with personally. **★★★★★ — HU-707806637, Nov. 2020** > On the very first conversation with Jay Truitt, he exclaimed that regardless of my end result purchase, one thing he promised is he would deliver 3 things; a fair price, great advice and above all, world class old school customer service. > > Initially, I had a very specific goal. I was desirous of designing a system for a family room. It quickly morphed into a six figure system in a newly framed out dedicated listening room. I contacted Jay because he was a Conrad Johnson dealer and I wanted that live warm sound of CJ. I ended up getting my mono block amps and pre-amps, and speakers elsewhere but Jay was there every step of the way with expert advice. He was invaluable. He advised on everything from electrical work and room design. I ended up getting a high end DAC and my sources from Jay. Better than a fair price to be sure. But more importantly, his expertise was able to hone in on perfect matches for my gear. I could not have done this without him. I am so fortunate that a random call lead me to a terrific long term partnership. He stands above, alone, in a big complex industry. > > I have gone through so much life being disappointed by those in the sales and service business that fail to even one close to delivering high level service. Therefore it was an honor to leave this review for Jay who did delivered it spades, even with high preset expectations. > PS this was done long distance during a pandemic. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
