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.

The pro "Made in PRC" camp always bring up personal computers/ Apple products/I phone ect. which is NOT relevant when regarding HEA. There are NO other options for those products that we need to function in society. Yes HEA products use some Chinese made parts PC boards/solder/cabinets ect. even the blue "MAC" meters are claimed to be made in China. Fortunately a few non critical Chinese made parts will not diminish the quality of components manufactured in North America/Europe or Japan. Krell, Sonus Faber and Quad are perfect examples of made in PRC quality control. All 3 companies have had problems with Chinese made products. I love the sound of the Quad 2812/2912 but there build quality is a deal breaker. Thankfully Krell and Sonus have moved all product? out of China. Yes, there could be a few extreme examples of well made Chinese gear. Line Magnetic/Melody appear to have great build quality and claimed top level SQ but I have not seen or heard either in person to make a valid judgement.
