Streamers made in America?

'prefer stuff to be made in the USA as much as the next guy if possible, but the fact is that upwards of 98% of the parts that go into a streamer are made outside the US, so really, what’s the point?'

Right what's the point? I really don't like buying things made in China. But... you can buy quality chinese-made audio cables/DACs on amazon/ebay...10x, 20x cheaper than those made in america. The quality isn't bad at all.

Too many of my family's jobs were outsourced overseas, leaving them unemployed. It's personal for me, so made in USA is the goal by default.

Although I'm looking at the Cary units myself (based on that massive aforementioned current sale), I second the Bryson suggestion. Especially here in the US you can find them used dirt cheap because no one outside of Canada really knows who they are.   But other than their quirky control app, the equipment itself is absolutely top-notch. See if you can find their newer 3.14 streamer-DAC (called that because it uses the...ha ha...Raspberry Pi as a base).

Yeah the thought of made in China is being crap ship has long sailed. Just looking amazing products from Kay and or special that new DSDAC (Deluxe) from Cen.Grand and the absokute  top-of-the -line components it uses. 

+1 on the Bryston.  I been running a little pi unit for years and it sounds great for what it is.  Makes a really good ROON endpoint as well. 

Bricasti literally has a Chinese flag on their homepage. Not the look I’m going for. I think aurender is my best bet. 

Too funny!
