This topic is 100% political. But I cannot discuss the reasons here. I think you should vote with your wallets. There are plenty of smaller brands with high value which get low attention on social media or the press.

It’s just weird to me how brands like B&W and Sonus Faber command a higher price, while manufacturing in China. That’s a failing of dealers to me. Dealers should guide you towards high quality, high value equipment. But it’s so much easier to move B&W, Focal and Sonus Faber product which get max coverage. The buyer is already convinced.

This topic is not 100% political. It's 100% economic clad wit commentary from summer soldiers and sunshine patriots. Always has been. Every darn time this topic comes up or is resurrected. 

All the best,

The most expensive loudspeaker designed by Peter Comeau and we still have no idea how it sounds.

These are several times more expensive than the highly regarded Lintons but are they worth that difference?

I still remember his Heybrook HB1s from way back. I had the Mk2 version and they were excellent all rounders.

The made in China thing doesn't bother me at all as long as the people doing the doing the manual work are treated well.

The real question is how do they sound?

Apart from the odd slightly vague review, there doesn't seem to be a lot of user experience being shared online.
