Happy 2012! Let’s kick off this blog by thanking you, all of our customers for your support, participation and of course your custom throughout 2011. We greatly appreciate your business and have been glad to help bring better sounding music and movies to your lives. Looking back, we had some fab competitions on our Facebook and Twitter groups, including a giveaway of HMV vouchers, an iPad, 3 iPods and Ticketmaster vouchers, to name just a few. Don’t worry if you missed out, we have even better prizes to come in 2012!

Product of the year

We looked through every order for 2011 and the Beyerdynamic DTX 101 iE Earphones wins as our overall best seller. You lot must really value great sounding music on the move! In second place is the always popular Audioengine A2 Active speakers. We think everyone should have a pair of these on their desks by their PC, Mac or laptop – they sound so good for compact speakers.

Biggest influencers

Believe it or not, once again, it’s you, our customers! We’ve asked for feedback, we’ve listened, we’ve considered and we’ve implemented as many improvements as we can to improve your shopping experience – both online and in store. We hope the changes we’ve made will make shopping with us even more easy and enjoyable over 2012.

Most read posts in 2011

Here are the top 3 posts which were read once, twice, and again and again by lots and lots of people. Top of the list is 10 Tips On Speaker Placement, a useful article with helpful advice on getting the best sound from your speakers, so if you haven’t read it, take note! Once you’ve done that, our second favourite article was the Home Cinema AV Set Up Guide, for all of you that love the best movie experience in your living room. And finally, one night in October, What Hi-Fi magazine released their 2011 award winners and a rush of you visited out What HiFi 2011 Award Winners blog. Don’t forget these winners are available online too!

New look

No, we’re not talking about clothing! Audio Affair’s website has gone through many phases of developments over the last 12 months. These include a fresh skin, a completely new and unique checkout system and improvements in both speed and order efficiency, all of which we worked very hard on to make your shopping experience even better. The checkout changes reduce the time it takes to order and include the option to checkout as a guest and check international shipping rates easily in the basket.. phew! And there is more planned for 2012, so watch this space!

Once again, thank you to all of our customers from 2011. All of this wouldn’t be possible without you.

Best wishes to all of you for an enjoyable (and great sounding) 2012!
