Even if its made in America is gonna be littered with parts from all corners of Asia and beyond, I know what your goal is but its kinda pointless if you really really think about it.
What components are manufactured in the U.S.A.?
Long time no see...I know. Sorry.
I've been hanging out in Economics forums for the last couple years. One thing that comes up over and over by the people in these forums is that we don't make *anything* here in the U.S. anymore and *definitely* not audio equipment.
I'm not trying to bash any country or foster an atmosphere of geocentricity in this thread. I myself have components from all over the world.
I just want to be able to point them to this thread so they can see it. I suspect most of them have never even been introduced to high end audio even though they are a bunch of engineers and techies so we might get lucky and get some of them on board so they can see what they are missing...even at the entry level...like me.
I'm not just looking for American manufacturers but the specific components that are made with U.S. labor. I recently purchased a Martin Logan sub and was surprised that it was made in China rather than Kansas.
It would also be great if people could put the rough price category so that the newbies who see this thread can see that there are reasonably priced components and stratoshperically priced ones.
Thanks for your replies in advance...much appreciated...and enjoy your systems wherever in the world you might be!
