Echo Audio (pre-owned high end) - Talk to Kurt ... great guy. I do 99% of my local buisness with him. (www.echohifi.com)

Pearl Audio - Very nice store, McIntosh-mania (http://www.pearlaudiovideo.com)

Stereotypes Audio - Intersting little hole in the wall. Very nice and helpful. Proac, Sim Audio, JM Labs http://www.stereotypesaudio.com/

Head downtown, spend some time with Kurt ... walk a couple of blocks up to Powell books, then up to Bridgeport brewpub for a couple of pints of the best beer in the world and then down to Jimmy Maks for some fantastic live Jazz. Ask for Satina and tell her Mikey sent ya. You will ether get a free pint or a slap in the face. You dont even need to take a car - just walk.

Jimmy Mak's - http://www.jimmymaks.com/home.html

That's my take ... Hey Mitchchavis, did I miss anything?

Mitch is the man ...

PS - Bring your skis ...
The Audio Gallery (503-699-8888,Lake Oswego), Echo Audio (503-223-2292), Stereotypes (503-280-0910), Pearl Audio/Video (503-222-2599), Chambers Audio (503-221-0465) and Stereoholic (info@stereoholic.com) both (appointment only).

Hey, Mike aka Horseface, I think you and Marty covered it pretty well. I would definately put Echo and Pearl on my must see list. Kurt and John are gonna have to put us on the payroll. If you can head South about 10 miles go to The Audio Gallery. The owners are very much into this hobby and will be happy to show you around the store. I agree with Fred's and Stereotypes as well. There's lots of entertainment spots that Horseface covered pretty well.

Take Marty up on his offer. He lives downtown plus he's a very entertaining guy. Just check his threads.

Echo Hifi is a must see, Kurt is a fine ambassador of the hobby. The Audio Gallery is far and away the nicest stereo shop in town, just gorgeous!
Thanks to all that took time to answer and provide the great info. I will look up all of the stores that have been suggested. I will contact you before I head down to Portland.
Again thanks for the help.
Jeez, you guys are killing me... planning a trip back home soon to Portland...

All the mention of the high end audio stores, local brew pubs, Powell's and Jimmy Maks...

STOP IT! STOP IT!

(Don't forget to visit the local coffee places too... far better than Starbucks - I recommend the Coffee People chain).
Thanks guys. I live in Eugene and though I have the excellent Bradford's here I will be sure to check out these stores on my next trip north.
Coffee people was purchased by Starbucks and most stores have been closed. Try Stumptown.
