(02-19) 04:00 PST Beijing -- Aquiet revolution is shaking up the rarefied world of high fidelity as a new generation of Chinese audio manufacturers offer consumers a radical value proposition by the industry's standards -- great sound at great prices.

For years, hi-fi manufacturers in Europe, the United States and Japan have alternately impressed and alienated music lovers with their tall claims, conflicting views and extravagant prices.

Interesting - I had begun wondering about this happening 5 years ago or so when Apex DVD players began arriving in the US. I'll have to keep my eyes open, and maybe one day again be able to get back into the 'phile world...

Thanks Iria!
