Unusual countries for audio gear

The Wand Master 14.4 turntable is made in New Zealand. Awesome turntable!

How are these companies when it comes to providing support including repairs when needed?

Good question.

I had no problems with any of the firmware upgrades for my DAC (Ideon Audio Epsilon Meta) -- on the contrary, the service level was first class (alert from them for online upgrade, immediate response to my suggested dates, etc).

No repairs ever needed so far

I would add Java Hi-Fi, which is from New Zealand. We carry their most excellent & high bang-for-the-buck integrated amps at Alma Audio, and really like 'em a lot.

Cyprus, Serbia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Romania, Lithuania — very interesting.
I'm curious about this question in part bc countries/companies that offer high value for lower cost might come from these countries as they try to break into the market.

@richardbrand  Lovely country and I agree though there is some local audio manufacturing albeit small and specialized.  My company has a very strong presence in Australia and and we did quite a bit of sponsorship in you Supercar Series.

One advantage of being in Australia is that we are almost equally far from everybody else, except New Zealand.  Everybody wants to sell us stuff and we have no barriers to trade!
