That's good because if you were I was going to immediately ship you to Audio Science Review to check your harmonic resonance and distortion levels.
-SPOILER-
I suspect the distortion levels would be high, very high.

I think that’s for the best all around. I don’t know how they’d react at me rolling my eyes every time they used the word science.

Yeah apparently like the new Missions the Aston and Dovedale are going to be built at the new factory IAG opened by their HQ in Cambridgeshire.

Always happy to see this sort of thing decamped from China, if I'm honest. Specifically, companies with a strong national heritage (especially when that heritage is part of their marketing) making their products abroad kinda gets my goat.

Even if its only economically feasible at the higher end, it's nice to see some of these speakers come home.

Yea--it is funny to look at the back of the Lintons with the huge british flag and the little sticker that says "made in china".

I've got the same gripe with non-Heritage Klipsch, though at least they're not throwing a flag on there.

edit: I guess the higher-end Reference Premiere series are also made in the States.

Yeah totally. And even from a common sense point of view in the current world if you’ve got manufacturing in China you’ve gotta have a contingency option somewhere else, even if that’s only high end to begin, with an ability to uscale down the line because, sorry for politics but also not sorry, we have no idea where China will ultimately fall on Russia if things get worse plus what’s going on with the Uyghurs alone should really demand sanctions…
