Where to go in Portland...

Echo Audio , great neighborhood , 2 blocks from Powell's books and great food carts , Voodoo donuts and Don and Louis Oysters .
Fred's house of Music has a couple of listening rooms ,
also great neighborhood .

Hey now, let's keep Echo a little on the down low so that when they post cool "new" stuff on their web site it won't be gone before I get a chance to look!

Echo is one of the best shops in the country.

I have been buying gear from Echo Audio for 20yrs. Great place. Pearl Audio is another one I would check out.
