Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark


Hi,

    I  recently Purchased a new pair of Dynaudios. The floor model I auditioned were 'Made in Denmark' but the pair which was shipped out by the dealer was 'Made in China'. They are still boxed. Whats should I do:

1. Swap with the showroom floor model (they were probably a yr or 2 old)

2. Unbox and use my 'Made in china' pair ?

My main concern here is the quality of the product from China. Resale values.

Anyone with experience please chime in.

It is hard to know the quality.  Having some experience, some companies set up their own factory and train the workers and buy good equipment for their chinese factories with serious quality control and IMO, those products can be just as good if not better then products produced elsewhere.  In other cases, the company reps will simply travel to the area of china that makes speakers and contract with a third party company to build speakers to some level of specification and leave the quality control to them, and even the design in some instances.  Dyn is a great company but we have all had great brand names make some poor products in china.  It is very hard to know.  Can you find reviews of the Chinese product or see it/listen to it first.  I feel like this is like any product, read, listen, inspect the actual product yourself.  Good luck.
