SDS2104X Plus price can be easy doubled when all options are added which is why the current promotion along with a BW upgrade is such a good deal. |

The talk comes to the "desastrous" WaveAce series at this time. He was really getting upset and shouted never ever we trust on any chinese company to make a deal with them! And now.. Siglent make the Wavesurfer 3000Z and the Wavesurfer 4000HD scopes for them, lecroy take siglents SDS2000X+ and SDS1000X-E under their name.. Or like a engineer colleague said once to me, with the partnership to lecroy, siglent are the "kings" under the chinese brands. Kings I wouldn´t say but you can recognize it when having a look to their touchscreen models 2000X+, 5000X, 2000x HD and 6000A. They´re more lecroy style with all the pros and cons... In my opinion a good way siglent are going. --- Quote ---If what Martin says is correct --- End quote --- It is, have a look at the spec sheets of the "lecroysiglent" ones... |

The big corporations aren't full of Rigols and Siglents and there's plenty of people out there who'll never get past the "made in China" sticker. |

In your defense, you would be right even 10 years ago. But there had been changes in that in last 10 years. Their devices are good enough and are being bought in large numbers by both small and very large organizations. Corporate types love a good save, too. The drunken millionaire purchasing works only for USA large military contracts and such. And where "patriotic technology" is prefered, for all kinds of reasons.. Problem is that human's habitual perceptions are very long term... People keep repeating statements that stopped being true long ago..It is evolutionary part our survival instinct.. A fruit that was once poisonous stays poisonous forever. And we tell others not to eat it and they listen. This is the mechanism of hearsay... But that part of human psyche should be ignored with stuff that can be objectively measured. |
