See the San Francisco Chronicle 02-19-07 article about the rising quality of Chinese hi fi. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/02/19/BUGQ8O5EPN1.DTL&hw=chinese+audio&sn=001&sc=1000 FYI, I have Antique Sound Lab Hurricanes because of the price and sound quality. The world has always liked people who make "better mouse traps". I know audiophiles will buy equipment made anywhere in the world as long as it is well built and well priced. Good luck in your research as you would any audio product. |
I know audiophiles will buy equipment made anywhere in the world as long as it is well built and well priced. Not exactly Jwong. Many will not support the Communist regime in China for political reasons. Here is a recent link that may give you a different perspective. John |
I always used North American Electronics(Sonic Frontiers Aragon,Krell,Classe,BAT & CJ to name a few.My system is now composed entirely of Consonance equipment(Cyber 80 amps,Cyber 50 preamp,and Forbidden City Turandot CD player).I do use a Sony SACD changer as a dedicated SACD source and a VPI Scoutmaster for vinyl.I've owned and auditioned other Chinese equipment from Music Hall,Consonance,Von Schweikert,and Raysonic to name a few.Originally I looked at the Chinese stuff because of its price.I am now paying more for new chinese gear than the comparable good used North American components I used to buy.This is due to looks,fit & finish,dealer service and above all, sound!!! |
