Marantz/Heart CD player...I guess the CD player is made in Japan, but the Heart tube output conversion was done by Rik Stoet...a Swiss guy?

Goldpoint stereo stepped attenuator. Made in the US?

 

'82-83 Cornwalls made in Hope...

 

Musicmaster "Point One Five" turntable. A Japanese copy of a Rek-o-Kut more or less...with a Japanese "Velvet Touch" tonearm, a Grace tonearm copy...

 

A Scott LK-48B integrated, Altec 345A power amp. Made in the US.

Basis TT and arm, USA (AJ Conti, RIP)

Tranny cart, Japan

Wadia 2-box CDP, USA

PS Audio power regenerator & ESP power cords, USA

 

Are we not seeing the solidification of a trend toward US design, distribution and sales, and Asian manufacture?  The US and Asian firms have a partnership in dividing up the labor, like Klipsch does with its lower-line speakers.  My brand new Oppo UDP-205 is totally manufactured and shipped out of China, but whose design and quality control seems to be strongly based in the USA, unless they have me fooled.  Totally marketed, sold and shipped out of California.  Totally bypasses local USA bricks and mortar.  A local store doesn't seem to mind, they sell enough higher-end stuff anyway.

Most of my Klipsch stuff is from here as well as my Carver gear.  I think the Anthem stuff is made in Canada.  QSC?  Not sure but the Behringer amp I have is probably made in China.  MY ATI and Hafler amps are US I believe as well as my Ampsandsound amp.  Adcom?  Not sure.
