In the 1950s and early 60s, anything made in Japan was generally considered to be junk (and some of it was). As others on this thread have said, the branding company's profit margin is usually the biggest determining factor in the quality of the product. Chinese manufacturing facilities are equal to anything that the US has to offer (or probably any other country). Still, it is hard to shake that 'Made In China' stigma that many people have a hard time overcoming.
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.
