Chinese Hifi classifieds

[panditji]

Hi All

Does anybody have any idea about Hifi classifieds websites in China especially Shenzhen or Shanghai? Hifi is a big hobby amongst the chinese and I am sure they must be upgrading as often as any other audiophile...

Regards

Panditji, try asking our forum member borg. He might know, PM him.

I no longer live china as my work there almost finished.(changed the location now in forum)
I will check with my colleagues if there is such a website. I just sent a mail to them, do not get your hopes up though.
tomorrow morning i may have to explain what is hifi and what is a high end amplifier etc even though they are engineers

Thanks Borg.....am really grateful for your help...although I am sure the chinese market would be big and people there would constantly upgrade...atleast that is what I am hoping for as I plan to pick up an amplifier on my trips there hopefully in the coming months

Borg saar, namaskaram! My bad, I thought you still frequented China. Been long, gotta catch up!

Panditji, looking at new amplification for the harbeths?

 

[borg]

Yes iaudio, need to move up from the Rotel although it does not sound too bad....
If lucky, plan to get a used entry level integrated McIntosh/Accuphase or Luxman

Opened the link that Borg sent me and it has tons of guys dealing in real hi end brands but need to go to Shenzhen/Guangzhou/Hongkong to actually try and check for myself.....
China has a huge market for hifi and it seems they go for the international brands rather than their own...hopefully I will find a rich chinese willing to part with a nice amp for a decent price.....Another added advantage is that the voltage is also 220V like in India.....
