And what exactly is wrong with that? Never, not once, have I considered not buying a product because it is made in China. What is your point? Chinese built products are inferior? Let me ask you this. Does SSA design their own product? Or do they pay somebody to do it then slap an SSA sticker on it? Made in USA or not I like to buy from audio manufacturers that design, test and revise their own products. I guess you might not have seen the threads where we explain what we are working on, post pictures of prototypes, discuss changes, talk about specs and lay out the goals and improvements (if it is an updated version) etc.
