      Yeah. Fit and finish don't seem to be up to even Chinese counterfeit standards.

        B&W actually licensed out their design to some knock-off company?

            The title of this thread does say "under license". : Do they ever even bother to sue those knock-off companies? I'd rather get a real B&W of a lower lineup than a knock-off of the 800's, lol. Wonder how their sound performance actually is? I can't imagine it performing anything like a real B&W?

                I dont expect they sound as good.
                In China everthing is copied.
                I once bought there an "ipod", and an "iphone" and a "memory stick of 500 GB".
                After one week ... you throw them away. Rubbish.
                These speakers will last longer, but are not suited for us. With our spoiled high end taste and high budgets to spend.

                  Bose "cubes" may be able to sound as big as these :-)

                    What you do you mean... they aren't real B&W? I always wondered what that red thingy was. The guy told me it was a B&W super special edition. That explains why my receiver also has the RO*TEL Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies logo on it. :lol:
