For audiophiles or those people who are very particular with their audio equipment, nothing but high quality gadgets and equipment will do. Among the shops in Cebu frequented by audiophiles is A. Refinery, which celebrated its first year last July 16.
A. Refinery is located in the new wing of Ayala Center Cebu. It sells audio-visual equipment from earphones, headphones, desktop speakers, portable speakers and high-end equipment.
To mark its first year in Cebu, the shop held a program and offered raffle prices and discounts of up to 35% on select products.
“A. Refinery represents today’s forward-thinking of home entertainment, HiFi concepts, portable media all integrated into one retail shop. We are now able to offer a complete showcase of our products and services as well as creative setting for our customers,” the company said in a statement.
A. Refinery said the needs of people when it comes to music and videos have changed and they are responding to it with their concept store and products lineup. Movies and music can be enjoyed more when you can feel it more, the company said.
The company describes itself as a lifestyle destination where people can discover music and movies “in a different light.” The company said that in its lineup is “long time German headphone powerhouse” Beyerdynamic and British audio companies Chord Electronics Ltd. And Q Acoustics.
A. Refinery has 3 branches in the country – Ayala Center Cebu, UP Town Center in Diliman, Quezon City and in Abreeza Mall in Davao City.
