+ A wide used-equipment section with its own Käytetyt info page brings a circular economy angle: the condition and price of used speakers, amplifiers and instruments are displayed
+ The right of return is exceptionally clear and consumer-friendly: a full 30-day right of return and the chance to try the equipment at home for 30 days before the final decision, which suits hi-fi listening in particular
+ Autohifi has a vehicle-specific fitment search: products can be browsed by car make, model and model year, which helps the consumer find a suitable device

+ Prices and stock status are visible directly without logging in, for example a branded system at a discounted price of 1,049 euros and products marked In stock
+ Product prices and stock status are visible directly in the product catalogue without logging in, for example a Bluetooth speaker 300 euros and for many products the note Out of stock
We scored 6 specialist online stores for home cinema and audio on 20 metrics: technical quality, transparency, reachability and AI quality. The key question: can you see the device's price, stock level and technical details before you enter your payment card details?
Product price and stock level shown without logging in (25), technical details (power, impedance, frequency response) on the product page (15), delivery costs and free delivery threshold stated (15), right of return, including for a product that has been listened to, publicly available (15), home delivery, installation or design service and its price stated (10), warranty, servicing and the condition of a used or demo device stated (10), business ID (Y-tunnus) or responsible company clearly stated (10)
Transparency is 30% of the total points · these metrics make up its 100 points · the full formula and the other pillars
How to read the comparison correctly: Score measures how openly a company publishes its prices, terms and contact details, not what kind of service it gives its customers. Clear differences in points indicate a genuine difference: one states the price immediately, another only after logging in. Close scores should not be read as a ranking order, because every measurement has a margin of variation. The measurement accuracy and the entire calculation formula have been laid open in the methodology.
Customer experience is brought into the assessment separately. We also collect customer feedback and customer experiences about the companies through separate surveys. The results will be added later to the overall assessment, so that the Score tells not only about transparency but also about how customers experience the company's service.
Transparency of the installation and listening service and of the right of return are the sector's pain points. A high-end device often costs thousands of euros, so it is important for the consumer to know the price and stock level before purchase, the device's technical specifications on the product page, the price of home delivery and installation, and the right of return even for a product that has been listened to. The comparison rewards shops that show these openly and state the condition of used or demo stock.
