Then in 2014 it was sold to Eastech, Eastern Asia Technology (HK) Limited, who I believe is the current owner.
Tymphany continues to own the Vifa and Peerless brands, which it acquired in 2008 when it bought Danish Sound Technologies (DST).
Tymphany (then owned by Ken Kantor) pretty much ruined Vifa and Peerless when it transferred production to China -- many popular models were discontinued, and QC went down the toilet. Scan Speak was kept in Denmark as the "prestige" brand.
In the last few years, Scan Speak has re-introduced several of the most popular discontinued Vifa models as part of its "Discovery" series.
