Are there any respectable high end pieces manufactured in Taiwan? I know they do a huge amount of OEM outsourceing and there have long been rumors about some of the biggest names, especially in speaker building. Anybody know anything for sure?
For many years, Adcom's products were assembled in Taiwan, until Adcom moved its production facilities to mainland China a few years ago. I think Rotel products are also manufactured in Taiwan (or possibly Singapore).
Parasound gear is made there. Their new JC1 mono amps designed as cost no object by the CTC crew are supposed to be incredible. All your RAM and pretty much any technical component in your computer is made there. There's also a well-received speaker brand, usher audio I think, that's there...I'd take ISO9000 CNC-machine, automated equipment any do over your run of the mill in the garage with the soldering kit starting my own audio company tube gear...
My Marsh is packed up in the box, otherwise i could verify. Thailand sounds right, but i might be mistaken. It wouldn't be the first time either : ) Sean >
