I have to buy a new CRO for my part time offsider to use. The old
analogue Tektronix he uses has failed in one channel. I thought I'd just
buy a new digi-scope as they are pretty well priced now. These are the
two I am considering. Both are available for less than AUS$350.00, when
purchased from an Aussie source.

The Hantek has 12 bit resolution, so appears, on the surface, to be a
better thing. There are some reports of poor software issues with
earlier Hanteks, though they may have been solved.
 
What are people's thoughts? It probably doesn't matter much, as it's
basic audio measurements that will be it's purpose. Other alternatives
or suggestions are welcome.
 
FWIW: My current bench 'scope is the very nice Rigol DS1054Z.

 About 40 years ago, we had 5 or 6 electronic repair shops in the area.
Every year the yellow page ads got bigger and more expensive.
 
One of the repair shop owners put a meeting together of all the shop
owners and proposed everyone get the same size small, inexpensive phone
book ad.
 
And they did! It worked for several years until one of them bought a
bigger ad and then the next year everyone went back to the bigger more
expensive ads.

I have a rule-of-thumb when dealing with unknown companies - if they
don't list their physical address on their web site (google street view
that address) along with a phone number then I usually won't bother with
them.

That does not always work. I have seen many ads to sell things that
show a big store and it seems to be a valid web page, but more checking
out and it is just some spoofing going on to cheat you .
