Obscure brands worth considering


American and not. There is a lot of equipment not visible or even not represented in the US at all.
What about speakers?

Why Brodmann uses Electrocompaniet electronics for shows is beyond me. The Electro will not control those speakers, not even close.
I buy from well established companies that will stay in business for a while and provide great support.
Source Technologies in South Windsor, Ct. One of the great underrated speaker companies in America. Have been buying speakers from John Sollecito since 1980 never been disappointed. 
Charney Audio in Somerset, NJ. They make full range single driver rear loaded horns based on the Tractrix theory. No steps in the horn just smooth and expanding on all sides. Impressive to listen to and equally impressive to look at...a true work of art in every aspect.
