Audio Dealers in Greater Portland OR Area

Ditto Bradford's right here in little ole downtown EUGENE.

Ask for Tim or Jeff, great guys. They have Vandersteen, Magnepan, Musical Fidelity, Rotel, Rogue, Paradigm, Music Hall, Audioquest and others.

Unfortunately, I feel the same way about Fred's. The only guy who is even a little friendly is one of the technicians. Every salesman I've dealt with has that smug, superior attitude that most audiophiles I know can't stand. I think that attitude is designed to appeal to people who are just stepping into the world of hifi and and need to feel as if they're joining some kind of elite club. I've gone in there about five or six times, each time hoping that I had just been overly critical, and each time I've left feeling the same way.

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

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.
