If you were to build a system from products originating from one country, what would you have in your system? Being from Canada, I was amazed at what great companies we have to choose from. Not having heard any of these products (a bit too pricey for me...but we can all dream!), this would be my CANADIAN system:
Amp/Preamp: Classe Audio (Bryston would be my second choice) Cd Source: EMM Labs Speakers: Verity Audio (Sarastro; Parsafal, etc) PC's/Interconnects: Virtual Dynamics Revelation(made in, of all places, Barrhead, Alberta....my backyard!)
I'm guessing this system would sound good, if not spectacular! I'm curious what other ONE COUNTRY systems others can come up with....
Actually, I worked for CIBC (a large Canadian bank) for many years. I really just liked typing in Canadian (eh?) again and didn't read the initiator's thread too carefully. My Bad.

PS I own an Oracle/Verity/Sonic Frontiers/Cary (A Yank in the woodpile) system. I do prefer vinyl as a source, but EMM ain't too shabby if you must do digital.
Martykl... Oh yeah...I forgot about Oracle! Are they still a Canadian company? I also neglected to mention that the tuner in my "all Canadian" system would be from Magnum Dynalab.
Australia - a Caliburn turntable plus Cobra arm, with one of the late Garrott Brothers modified cartridges, the big Osborn Epitome Mk V1 and Optional Epitome Bass Unit, and amps and preamps by Peter Stein (previously ME - now out of business).
