Just remember that one of the great B&O designers was also not made in Denmark Laughing

The world is now well and truly flat ... we are global citizens who travel and work almost anywhere

What I care about is the architecture/strategy of the products and their design and the quality of their components and manufacturing

There is now very little charm in thinking that there is a little piece of Denmark in my living area

Don't be disappointed, I've installed quit a few Machines in China and prefer working together with Chinese, over European and north American, very good workers, intelligent and good educated, if a Chinese product comes out cheap or bad, its because of the designer or the one who ordered it made that way.

 

Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.

There is no problem in outsourcing as long as the quality control is kept at the same level.

Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.
