Monitor Audio Made in China?

for the right amount of capital, anyone can call a 'built to spec' factory in china and be in business. you can 'design' your products via the internet, phone or fax. most high end audio brands are really nothing more than 'a desk,a chair, and a line of credit'......any price range too.

i don't think the controversy is about where its built. if companies would be forthcoming about the realities of who 'really' designed the products and 'how and where' they were manufactured...no matter where 'there' is, most audiophiles would find it enlightening, if not the biggest news since they discovered there is no santa claus. sneaking audio manufacturing jobs out of the uk, canada,germany, and the u.s. is a hard reality....sneaking the products into homes on the bsis that these companies are the 'same' companies they used to be is in poor taste to say the least.

you are right oz...no one passes the savings on
