Some interesting looking ones, no idea what they would be like but would love to try some of them just to see. Couple of models look very...familair. Seems to me that the Chinese are were the Japanese were in the late sixties early seventies when they were making facsimiles of JBL and AR speakers.
Here's the Orsefon 'Princess', remind you of anything?
Or if you don't fancy them there's the Qatlon M3B

I'm guessing no-one reading this has been brave enough to try any of them
I read somewhere that British brands (particularly vintage) is much sought after in China. These products are probably mostly for the domestic market, catering for those who can't afford the real deal.
They look pretty good, and maybe sound good too, but I'm with Shane on the name choices - definitely a "Person of Chinese origin" in their armour. I'm in no hurry to buy something that calls itself "Nobsound" either. Names matter
