Ok, however, cell phones don't cost as much as these speakers do. We're not talkin' about phones anyway, we're talkin' about speakers here. There's no reason imo, for Chinese made stuff with high end price tags, like Monitor Audio. 
HEGEL - Is it really made in Norway ?

HEGEL - Is it really made in Norway ?
The only products that I know are Luxman in Japan and McIntosh Labs in NY that still make products that last a lifetime.I would add Accuphase in Japan to your list :DPerhaps Pass Labs and D'Agostino as well as far as US companies go.For Canada; Br... 
HEGEL - Is it really made in Norway ?

Thoughts on Krell FPB series? 600 in particular.
Mikey8811: I forgot to say something regarding the new D'Agostino $12k amp vs. old Krells; better than nothing! I'd rather get the D'Agostino instead of non D'Agostino Krell. No D'Agostino, no Krell. :D
