RE: Avoid Chi-Fi

I have to agree - One of the dealers in Hong Kong carries Rogua Audio, Melody Valve Audio (Australian owned Chinese made) and Line Magnetic (they hired the Cayin engineers years ago to work at Line Magnetic).

On Sound I would rank Rogue in last place. Finish - Melody would rank first and in some cases on sound as well.

People always rant about Chinese made yet they buy iPhone's and Samsung phones or have LED Televisions that last 20 years with zero problems.

Yes there is cheap Chinese junk - but then again Chrysler and GM are American. So you can't talk about shoddy junk without bringing up American shoddy junk.

I have heard Cayin here as well but in different location but they are veritable tanks and sounded good when I heard them. I heard their top 845 power amp with matching preamp and CD player. Back breakers by the look of em.
