CD player NOT made in China under $1,000?

That's perfectly OK with me. So why is there not a larger selection of CD players made in these countries at $1,000 or so? There are hundreds (thousands) of China-made CD players under $500; I would be prepared to buy the same made in the UK or Germany if it was twice (or, pushing a little, even three times the price).

I have several issues with buying stuff Made in China (let's say it has bad vibes), and I am amazed that the disappearance of any low and mid-range products made elsewhere has seemingly gone un-noticed.

how about bluenote that hand made in Italy ? Let me know if interest

What makes you think people haven't noticed? The loss of manufacturing jobs in the U.S. to overseas locations is extremely noticeable here in the mid-west.
As for your question though, if used is ok then go for a used Cary or Resolution Audio cdp. Extremely good pieces at used prices.
Although even with American or European assembled pieces, most of the parts are sourced from China.

get real. all the parts and sub-parts are made in China even in players 10K......

Pecinka nailed it, it isnt possible to keep China out of your equipment rack, buy whats best at your price point no matter where its made.
