Raven vs primaluna integrated amplifiers

I have a pair of tannoy XT6F’s and I’m looking to pair them with a tube amplifier. I was originally looking at the primaluna evo 100 or 200 but the idea of spending that kind of money on a product made in China turns me off a bit. I recently looked into raven audio’s nighthawk mk3 and it’s definitely got me intrigued. Any thoughts or input on this pairing would be awesome. I’m open to other suggestions as well. I’d like to stay under $3000.
thank you

"Quite easy to keep from having any made in China in your system and have top shelf gear."

You have all Made in Japan on shelves?

For real, what is considered top-shelf gear?

Dude zero Japan also.

I have a Raven Audio Blackhawk, Moon by Simaudio 260D transport, 280D DSD/DAC all made in Canada, Icon Audio PS2 made in UK, Thorens TD145 turntable made in Switzerland, Raven Audio CeLest Towers, Raven Audio Soniquil cables all made in the USA.

System in our vacation home is all Italy with Pathos and Sonus faber.

It is very easy to avoid China. Look at Pass, Klipsch, VPI,.......

@glupson We own a vacation home is St. Anne Bay Jamaica that we rent. I also own 2 homes in Florida and one in Colorado. They are all vacation rentals as we rent them out when we are not using them.

Guess that is hard to get your head around?

Later Gulp.
