Audio Dealers in Greater Portland OR Area

I like Pearl Audio Video. They have really good stuff. The guys there really know there stuff too. Ditto on Fred's.

Marigo Audio 503-284-1163 is a Cary,Dali,Oyaide dealer
4628 se 74th ave 97206
I have not yet been to his house but spoke with Ron, seemed nice and knowledgable

Thought it was just me with the bad freds experience. yep one nice tech tho,
spent 12$ there a few years ago and the support after the sale was terrible.
Also went down there again to give them another shot, more of the same s!@#$#@t talkin snobbery.
But that's what lead me here, replacing may paradigms with Dali 800,400s purchased here, and on ebay.
prefer online shopping, not a big fan of the homey vendor settings (invited for diner to a moonies house once in college) besides saved lots of money online

I second the Audio Gallery, Gary is very knowledgable and a real treat to deal with as well.

I just want to put a plug in for Echo Audio in downtown Portland. Kurt is a friendly, knowledgeable guy who has gone out of his way on several occasions to help me out. The store sells mostly pre-owned gear, but he does carry some new lines. The website is frequently updated, which makes keeping your eye out for new arrivals very easy and convenient. Best of all, nobody in there is a snob. They are there to help you, not to assess your wallet!

i visited the pearl audio/video store tonight to see there new space. nice setup. the macintosh setup sounded very nice, the linn's we also very nice. friendly people, nice gear, laid back atmosphere. maybe the personnel at freds should learn how to deal with customers from john and company at the pearl.
