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.

Here is my take on made in China. Though we would love to have everything made in Denmark or the United States or any free country, companies continue to have a communist adversary to build everything you can imagine. Here is the deal. How closely the parent company on quality control and if their specifications are being followed?. I own a Primaluna integrated built in China. The workmanship inside (I looked), and out is flawless. The sound is Amazing. I built my DYI speakers with a woofer made in China. Most are made there anyway. Rubber surround, woven carbon fiber, and very good. I do not believe normally quality control in China is reliable as free countries. But if they stay on spec, they do very well.

If having a non free country making your speakers bother you, I suggest you get the Denmark ones. But the ones you have I bet will sound great.

You sure seem like a class act! Blaming democrats for bringing politics into the discussion while making no attempt to hide your own nasty bias and views about the current president. I would welcome the day when someone like you is not able to afford any of the stuff listed here.

Taking delivery 2morrow.  A month on the boat, 2morrow to the door.

comparisons?  My Brit 1SC ProAc’s, Mystere PA11/Denafrips Hyperion, Athena preamp, Benchmarck Dac3/SMSL VMV D2, Rotel Tribute CD player, VPI turntable, Bobs Sky, Dynavector.  Some, Elacs, Zu’s, Castels, Daedalus, ADS, Kef, ect… about the house.  $1500 + shipping.  Dyn drivers, premium crossovers, hdmi construction, go figure…  Yamaha AS amp, Nakamichi cassette, 3 dedicated lines, Rel sub.  Current system sounds better than a 50k stack I had getting into this hobby years ago.

oh, I gotta crazy purple Klein Rascal n cherry condition hanging on my bike rack too!  Enjoyed the read, but growing up outside Detroit I’ll take ‘quality’ where I find it.  Nothing stays the same, nor should it.

 

I can already tell u these r really, really good speakers.  But, divert your eyes as they r only half dressed…
