Thirty Years of Knowing This Gear

What started 30 years ago as one guy with a van and a dream has grown into one of the most trusted names in pre-owned and vintage high-performance audio. A company built not on hype, but on relationships. Over three decades, we’ve earned the respect of fellow obsessives, collectors, and gearheads across the country. That network gets us access to extraordinary gear: one-off pieces, cult classics, vintage rarities, and unexpected treasures you won’t see twice.

Every item is hand-picked, fully tested, and ready to make someone’s system sing. If it’s here, it’s because we believe in it.

But fair warning: things don’t sit still for long. When something special shows up, it doesn’t hang around—act fast or kick yourself later.

The bench is back.

The Shop Has Changed. Echo Hasn't.

Thirty years of hunting down extraordinary gear, and none of that stops. What's changed is where it lives.

Echo is now online-first. Our inventory is photographed, tested, listed, and boxed — ready to ship anywhere or waiting for you at the counter. A few pieces are still out on display, but most of what we have is packed and ready to go, not sitting on a rack.

The shop is for pickup and drop-off. No appointment needed — come by during open hours, grab your gear, or hand us something that needs attention.

We still service your gear. That bench isn't going anywhere. If it needs work, bring it in.

Same building, new neighbor: our friends at Definitive Portland now share this address, and their showroom is open to walk through. Two names, one door.

Ships anywhere in the US. Every piece packed and insured.

  • The staff here is super friendly and knowledgeable. I had a couple of vintage amps that needed servicing. After visiting another popular audio shop in Portland and having a less than great experience. I decided to go to Echo and man they blew me away! Not only are they friendly and welcoming, but they are also speedy. I had both pieces back within a couple of weeks. I'm so happy with their work that I will no longer shop anywhere else.

  • I never write reviews but feel compelled to here. I took my dad's vintage Pioneer receiver which is a heirloom to get fixed and they said it would be done in about 3 weeks. 4 days later it was done! Not only was it fixed but it works better than it ever has before. Highly recommend!

  • “Thanks. Many thanks. It's not just that in three years of buying, selling and trading with you I have a stunning system that under normal circumstances would have cost me three or four times what it did. It's the way it was put together. Clearly you have a passion for what you do and the knowledge to back that passion. Most importantly you use that knowledge in your customers' best interest. That's often claimed, rarely practiced. You counseled patience, and I give you complete credit for what I'm listening to now.”
