State of Quad?

What I’d really like to know is, what’s the lifetime of the current,
made-in China parts? I’m fairly sure that my 12 new elements were from
China.
** Even if they are not one bit better than the what Quad manufactured over
20 years ago - they will still last 20 years or more.
Is that NOT long enough for YOU ????
There’s been a steady trickle of new 2905/2805 on eBay at around half
list price, which is a bit worrying in itself.
** Heard that same, silly false argument waaaay back in 1984, when CD
players were turning up in the second hand pages for lowish prices - it was
quoted as proof that CD was no good.
Actual fact was, the number turning up like that was about 0.1% of the
number being sold through retail stores AND many of them were brand new
machines - having been purchased in Asia by tourists and airline
personnel in order to make a few quick dollars when they returned home.
