Rewind Audio (CLOSED)

We can't remember an Echo Park before audiophile husband-and-wife duo Jen and Oscar Carpinteyro opened their doors at this vintage audio gear boutique on Alvarado. (It was only 2010, but seriously, what did we do before then)? The shop specializes in buying, selling and renting throwback audio equipment of all kinds, from '70s turntables and '80s boomboxes to mixers, receivers, amps and more from virtually any era. Style-minded music geeks can invest in a one-of-a-kind, Brady Bunch-era stereo, while indie film directors can rent a whole room's worth of mid-century style hardware for a day's shoot. To buy, prices range from a couple hundred to several thousand for a real showstopper.
