American made Subwoofer


Does anyone know of a few subwoofers, say between 1 and 3 grand, that is made in America? I'm not looking for some company that re-badges a product made somewhere else. Only an honest to goodness American company making high-quality subwoofers for both two-channel or home theater.
Thank You

I was set on the James EMB until I found out they are made in China. Apparently their other speakers are made in America, not their subs.
Timrhu:The day I posted this thread, I spoke with someone at James and they said a little over a year ago they changed the supplier of their amps .... changing the source to China. A few seconds later after I specifically asked where they were made and he said the entire EMB sub was now made in China. Which doesn't sit well with me. I'd rather buy American, no matter how good the sub is, and the James EMB are very good. IF I'm wrong, or the information was communicated improperly, I would appreciate it if someone would please correct me. Personally, I really liked the James sub, however, I just think with so many other good subs made in America, why buy anything else. (Personal preference)
I wish to thank everyone for their response, seems like a myriad of excellent choices.

I came across this link and thought I'd throw it out there for comments. Especially for those of you that forgot more about this stuff than I know in totality. The ratings in ( ) mean this: the first number is HT, the second number is for music. So for example, a rating for the SVS Ultra is (57 HT - 52 Music) and so on.

Any thoughts?

Thank You
Musicman07: I suspect you are right. At least one part or another of most subs is going to be contracted out. I'd thought I'd give it a try though. I would be interested - and I'll bet others as well - in your thoughts on your Selah Whomp sub.
Two subs made in America are the Zu Mini Method and the larger Zu Method .... (Ogden Ut) anyone have an opinion on either one?
