DelGatoGrande;
What do you mean by "way better quality than the old DL-50"?[sm=confused.gif] I have seen the new DLE-55 and I have not noticed any differences in quality, at least not on the outside. The motors look identical to me. Have you disassembled a new DLE-55, yet? I am just curious, if there are differences.

Thanks for posting those pictures. But I wouldn't necessarely call that a quailty improvement. Why would they implement any noticable improvements? It only would raise the price for the end consumer. I am very pleased with the quality of my DL-50, as is. It is not as "purdy" as a DA, but it runs at least as good, if not better. That's all I care. I am pretty sure the new DLE will earn its reputation, just like its predecessor did.

We are dealing with China here, the land of rip-off. More DLs where being sold than DL was making, I bet, this is a way to get control bsck.

I photoshopped one picture so you can see it better.
