Classe move to China

Jea, market share and sales volume? Unless capitalism doesn't actually
work; though this may be a hobby where paying $2,000 more for the exact
same product may actually make it sound better to the owner.

Slave labor? I hardly think so. Too much Pearl Buck and demonization - at
least for this type of product. Maybe commodities and cheap, low value
added products. True, China's labor practices may be closer to 19th
century US, but not for long, they are squeezing 200 years of development
in 20-30 years.

Publ,
Mao, the largest mass murdered in history tried the 'Great Leap Forward'. Apparently back yard steel mills don't work.

By the time Mao went room tempreture, he was responsible for the deaths of 60 to 70 million Chinese....more than Hitler and Stalin put together, maybe.

The final toll of China's current modernization efforts are yet to be told. The human, environmental and sociatal costs will be incalculable.

Lower Classe now?

Too muddle headed on issues of relevancy to respond. Stalin and Mao were monstrous, that wasn't really the issue and you don't have to persuade me on that count. If you want to believe that Classe amps will be built in a sweatshop with slave labor, I think you are delusional - which doesn't mean I'm a member of the Mao fan club.
