Three Generations of Audiophiles

House of Stereo has been Jacksonville’s go-to high-end audio shop since 1969—when our father Fred walked through its doors as one of its very first customers. He brought us here year after year, unknowingly planting the seed of a passion that would last a lifetime.

From Local Shop to International Retailer

 

Today, House of Stereo is a state-of-the-art destination for audiophiles around the world. With six demo rooms, industry-leading brands, and an internationally recognized online store, we’ve combined the warmth of a local stereo shop with the reach of a global retailer.

 

And now, our own kids have audio gear we couldn’t have dreamed of at their age, which is proof that the love of great sound keeps evolving, just like the music.

 

We’re not just another hi-fi showroom. We’re a story of passion, preservation, and sound done right.

Our Team

We build real relationships, not just transactions. Serving your needs now and for generations to come is what drives us. Great sound should come with great service.

Joe Parvey

Joe is President of House of Stereo, has spent his life immersed in hi-fi, both as a listener and an innovator. As the engineer behind Wolf Audio Systems, he helped pioneer one of the first true high-performance music servers for audiophiles. His approach blends technical precision with a deep respect for the emotional power of music, shaping everything we do.

Jasmin Aires

We’ve always felt that the best experiences come from thoughtful, human connection. Jasmin leads operations at House of Stereo with a deep passion for hi-fi and an unwavering commitment to our customers. Whether she’s guiding someone through their first system or helping fine-tune a setup, she brings clarity, care, and enthusiasm to every interaction.

Fred Parvey

We’ve always honored the people who shaped our story from the very beginning. Fred was one of House of Stereo’s very first customers back in 1969, and his love for music laid the foundation for generations to come. He’s also responsible for passing down the hi-fi obsession to his sons, helping turn a passion into what House of Stereo is today.

David Parvey

We’ve always believed that sharing the experience is just as important as creating it. David leads marketing and media at House of Stereo, combining a deep appreciation for hi-fi with a focus on storytelling and connection. Through content, campaigns, and community, he helps bring the world of high-end audio to life for both new listeners and longtime enthusiasts.
