Well, I found a picture of a Denmark speaker http://public.fotki.com/kclm7/misc_pictures/denamark_speaker.html and it doesn't look like a white van model.
BTW, a "white van speaker" is a speaker that is generally sold by a couple of guys in a van, with a story like, "I'm delivering these really great speakers to a club, and I brought some extras, and I need to get rid of them quick. I'll sell them to you for $500" etc. The speakers are generally covered in dark gray felt, and are absolutely crap. Often the drivers aren't even all hooked up, and they're held together by duct tape (literally) on the inside. Yes, some companies have this as a business model.
However, I still don't trust speakers whose main feature is their power handling (wattage), since that's just not that important of a feature in decent speakers. Anyway, I would recommend Harman Kardon receiver (except for their remotes. ;-)
