While portable Bluetooth speakers are handy, Nat Dobbie from Living Entertainment knows nothing beats a good hi fi system.

A bespoke showroom where people can come in and hear a good quality sound system is one of the gems in his new shop, now located at 105 Keen Street, Lismore.

“People don’t realise that when they are listening on tiny blue tooth speakers they are missing the emotion behind the music," Nat said.

“When you sit down in a shop under the speakers and hear the emotion in the music it's incredible.

“I want to expose people to that sound again."

Nat has been trading from a shop in Summerland Arcade for four years and the business has become so successful, he’s moved into a larger premises next to Bohotopia and the Book Warehouse.

The new Living Entertainment shop is ten times the size of the old one and today, he’s fitting out his new showroom with lots of audio equipment.

“We’ve got lots of electronic gadgetry, audio equipment, turntables, lighting automation and home hi fi systems,” Nat said.

“We do custom home fit outs for people with bespoke audio gear and tailor the sound they want to achieve.

“We love offering a personalised service an we have experienced, qualified staff who know all the equipment."

Nat said he got into the audio business ten years ago when a family friend asked him to help with installing a stereo system.

“I started dabbling in it as a hobby and really enjoyed it,” he said. 

“So I stated trading as a mobile sole trader fixing people’s stereo systems and home theatres.

“Then I got more interested in the hi fi side of it and four years ago decided to open a shop.”

Nat said that he would do a soft opening of the new shop on Thursday, followed by a grand opening on Friday and invites people to come in and check it out.
