When did Musical Fidelity start making stuff in...

Thanks everyone, I was just curious. The only thing that I can say here is it getting better. I am still sticking with my products made here mostly but like I said.....the Rotels, NAD's and Quad's are some samples of evolution for sure. Initially they did have issues with quality control, they are much better now. All in all.....I have NO complaints ever with my gear thats mainly made in the USA right from my Wilsons.....to my Oracle Turntable from Canada. I had one Shanling product once and I had my doubts then with its fit and finish, I trust they have drastically improved today compared to the model I had 6 yrs ago.

I have to buy some stuff like tupperware,levi's,underwear,batteries etc.Small inconsequential things.No problem.When it comes to stuff which is important to me like motorcycles,mushrooms and music[3M],I am sticking to American made products as much as possible,YMMV,cheers,Bob

With the chemicals used in China the Mushrooms may be a real "head turner" :)

Merganser , I stand corrected . You are correct that the KW line is still made in England. When I went to the dealer a few years back he had some MF gear from the X 1/2 chassis series and some of the full size units that were all made in Taiwan . I assummed that the KW line that he did not have any pieces of yet were also made their. My Bad. It does make me wonder why they would still build their Highest End in England though. Thanks Merganser for the correct info. Cheers

I just bought a Giant TCR Advance 2 road bike which is again made with pride in Taiwan. In fact, 90%+ of world class carbon road bike are made there, do you hear Lance Armstrong complaining his Taiwan bike? But you can bet if he was riding a China bike, he would never make it to finish line.

That's a good one apart from the China's milk issue with excessive melamine levels. I burst into laughter for a while reading that although I concur Lance Armstrong wouldn't make it to the finish line with a China-made bike. QC in China does seem to give a big question mark and I believe there are other quality issues that may have been neglected in China mainly due to work ethics.
