Iacon Sound Studios

I really can’t say enough about the studio and service at Iacon. Sulo is the best. They are really involved with the local music community, as well as touring acts, both nationally and internationally. The rooms sound great, the place is clean and comfortable & it just feels like home. So, I never give praise unless it is really due. These guys have earned it, without a doubt! Thanks.

If Sulo King was a song he would be «sweet child of mine», he does not discriminate against handicapped people and accommodates even the less fortunate in his studio with his skills in inner personal development i have seen him help a young man who everyone taught was a homeless — in to the best version of himself — not only does he help bands make a good record he also has been known to push a band he believes in by booking them around town and flexing his Industry Muscles to achieve success his studio features a great engineer and fine gear — roomy rehearsal spaces and maintained equipment please come visit and check out the catalog of the studios recordings — They are constantly on the search for greatness and optimal quality for your buck — and they always keep a cold one in the fridge — and friendly to all «Reggae «friendly and Black Metal — is welcomed here…

This is Lee, Bass player from Dropjoy! If your looking for a studio to Rehearse or Record in, look no further! Iacon Studios is the place for you! Dropjoy has rehearsed there several times with great results! Whether you use their backline or bring your own, all is good, And the prices are very reasonable! There staff is great to work with and you’ll be happy with the results! So call up Sulo King and book your time at Iacon Studios!

I highly recommend Iacon Sound. I’ve booked their large room for recording and rehearsals in the past. The staff are accommodating and friendly. The facilities are clean. Affordable rates. They have an excellent assortment of equipment at the ready full drum kit, guitar amps, a great PA lots of mics etc.\,/ ^_^

There are plenty of studios in San Diego willing to offer competitive prices and quality studio time. Iacon offers both PLUS quality people. Studio owner Sulo was very warm and welcoming making the place feel like you are at home. There is a mini fridge to keep your beers cold, couches for downtime in between sessions, and great food places nearby in case you get the munchies.
If you are a local band and looking for a great studio sound without breaking the bank, this is the place to go. They had the Microphones and Preamps we wanted on our recordings, allowing us to capture some great sounds. Engineer Mason Proud is very professional and easy to work with. Our recordings turned out great, and we would record here again just on the overall ‘vibe’ of the studio. THANKS IACON

I’ve recorded twice at Iacon Sound. Once we recorded a vocal overdub and another time we did drums. Both recording sessions were on a song titled «One More Hit» by Sal Filipelli & Sly Stone from the upcoming record titled: «This Day In Music History» Available Now on iTunes at

I have also been to Iacon to rehearse a band, and one other time for their grand opening event!
Frank really knows what he’s doing. and Sulo is a great studio manager. very welcoming.

Iacon is the best recording studio in town. Recorded two albums here and completely satisfied with the quality and experience. Mason Proud is a fantastic engineer and great to work with. Sulo is the man.
Great sound, great staff, highly recommended!

This place is great. Best in town for sure. The location is perfect and Sulos the coolest band rehearsal/​studio owner and manger. Stoked to have a spot here

If you rock these guys will give you the best recording experience, tone, and finished product then any other recording studio in SD. Frank has an amazing ear, won’t over produce (can polish a turd, literally make a crappy song sound amazing), and knows his stuff. I did some tracks at my home studio, I’m embarrassed to show them after hearing what they did with the same music. A good studio needs more than plug ins, and these guys get it done. Plus you can rent the live room if you need a place to practice, tell Sulo I sent you and he’ll hook you up!
