First off, it's about buying things that support your particular country, state, neighbor, or whatever. It's not always about better quality but that can also be a factor. We all know that just about everything electronic has parts that MUST be sourced globally. Some things cannot even be made in certain countries because of many factors, so we don't need to constantly remind audiophile type folks that the guts are from a global supply chain, they already know, everyone does, and it's not about that. I buy the best I can, and if that means there is a Made in USA source as a choice, then they will get my money as I live here. Support your country first if they make something great. I do go out of my way to find products made in my country, and it's usually worth the time spent. Everyone is also clear that sometimes the Made in USA label only means minor assembly here, and that is OK too. It still means someone here has a job and the money usually stays in the USA. It matters, and not always in some black and white way.
