purchasing US made speakers

The first two that come to mind are Magnepan and Klipsch Heritage line.  I would definitely demo the Magnepans, if possible.

If you want the best get MAGICO A3s best sound,best made and USA.

Great link US MFG  yogiboy!!

Yes @yogiboy  I've never seen that site before a pretty comprehensive list thanks for the link.

Would you consider horns?  I use to have Sonus Faber Amati Tradition Homage speakers.  After selling them I went on a mission to find new speakers and never would have considered horn speakers.  However, when comparing horn to other non horn speakers including Vandersteen, I was blown away on how good horns sounds.  I ended up purchasing Viking Acoustic Grande Voix that are made in Sante Fe, NM.  They have a Berlin speakers that is awesome sounding in your price point.  The owner /designer is David Counsel.  Check our tge website and give him a call/
