Unusual countries for audio gear

@tony1954 it wasn’t an apology. It was an explanation. I honestly didn’t say anything offensive. I meant it in a positive way. I am perfectly aware of the climate and weather and geography of Canada. I have been to all over Canada, US and Europe. It’s simply a feature of the latitude where Canadians live that they have more indoor time. It is changing with climate change so there is that. I praised Canada for producing awesome audio gear. Yes, it is stereotyping and generalizing when in one sentence I talk about a county's climate in generic terms, when it has a diverse geography and climate and extreme. Does it rain a lot in Vancouver? Is it colder in Montreal than in Southern California? I think I have a point....

@foggyus91 Switzerland is also well known for innovation and precision, old tech (watches) new tech (geodesic equipment - Leica), to me it’s only natural they have hifi companies

For sure Bulgaria:   Thrax Audio and APL

@mapman Great question. I feel this is where a great relationship with your dealer comes into play and supporting the brick and mortar stores become very important. At risk of being gullible the distributor and retailer should understand what's at stake when you represent these companies from abroad. And to that end have services and problem solving answers in place. 

you are the authority on most people @foggyus91? You are really just too wound up. In Europe, "most people" associate Switzerland with - well - everything I said.
