Why a name like Vincent?

Check out the March 24 blog by Vic Trola regarding Chinese gear and the boutique brands.

Well the way I see it....I would never pay full price for any gear...Chinese or American boutique....there is not piece of gear that I own that I paid full price for.

Edit....I take that back. I paid full price for a pair of Paradigm monitor 7v3 back in 2002 that I use in my home theater. Out side of that everything at a discount well bellow the asking price.

Ok as I said I would....I found the link for those quotes by Vincent and ShengYa

07/09/2003- While writing this article I contacted Sintron, the european importer of Shengya products, to ask them about their products and this is the answer I have received. Thanks to Sintron for this information:

Dear Mr. Ruiz,
We are pleased to notice your interest in our Hi-Fi Products and see below for your question! Production place China as like more and more brands do, of course. Shengya are different to Vincent although the housings are temporatly the same which are able to give confused but shouldn't happened as far as Shengya wouldn't and couldn't be commercialize in Europe. Enginering by co-venture as well as technical modifications/specifications are concerned and these are relevant under industrial secret. Best regards. Olivier Kasjan//SINTRON.

09/09/2003- More information about Shengya, kindly provided by the chinese company. Thanks very much to Shengya:
