About Echo Audio

For almost 30 years, Echo Audio has been a leading two-channel audio shop in Portland, Oregon (where there's no sales tax, by the way). It's a hi-fi lover's dreamland, conveniently located and brimming with a carefully curated collection of new and used equipment.  

We mention all this because you may feel a little uneasy buying expensive gear over the internet. We don't blame you. However you can rest assured Echo Audio meticulously hand selects only the best pre-owned high-end audio equipment you can find anywhere. And we actually test it to make sure it’s working properly, well before we sell it to you. (Don't laugh. You’d be surprised how many don’t do that.)

You might be amazed to see what we have on offer in the course of a year: you’ll find extraordinary gear from brands like Wilson Audio, Mark Levinson, Bowers & Wilkins, Audio Research, Linn, Nagra, Pass Labs really, just about any big-name, high-end amplifier, preamp, speaker, tuner and every other gizmo in high-end audio paradise. Whether creating a $1000 system or a $75,000 system, you'll find exactly what you're looking for. (And our selection of cables is pretty impressive too.) New gear comes in and goes out the door daily, so what you see today may very well disappear tomorrow.

The proof of our effort is the loyalty of our clients. They keep coming back on their never ending journey to get closer to the music they love. Both in person at the shop and through the web. You'd be amazed how far-flung they are! We ship to most places worldwide. We know how to pack it right and get it to you as cost effectively (but reliably) as anyone in the business.

In 2024 we made our long standing partnership with our friends at Definitive in Seattle official. Joining forces provides Echo Audio unique access to some of the finest high-performance audio brands and top-tier audio experts in the industry. Whether it's tapping into Definitive’s exclusive high-end brands or leveraging the profound audio knowledge that Definitive’s experts bring, Echo stands at a unique crossroads of tradition and innovation, ensuring that your journey towards perfect sound is both advanced and deeply satisfying.

So that's the story. Give us a call (888-248-ECHO) You won’t be disappointed. 

P.S. We're very pleased to be authorized dealers for KEF, Chord, Manley, Audeze, Grado, iFi, Sennheiser, Marantz, Denon, ModWright, Transparent Cables, Sony, Parasound, MoFi, Sumiko & Bluesound.

Warranty on Used Equipment

We thoroughly test all of our equipment and guarantee each piece for 30 days. Some consignment items will not carry the same warranty but have been completely tested as well.

All tubed items have been tested and work as they should, but tubes are finicky and we simply cannot warranty them.
