sonically well designed but ugly and made in China? I only buy from democracies. Your mileage may vary. My son thinks I am nuts paying 500 bucks for American made flatware when you can buy Chinese flatware for under 80 bucks. i apply this personal philosophy to every purchase if possible. But even without consideration of the global socioeconomic Cold War, they are just not to my aesthetic liking. The new revel subwoofer coming out soon may cause me to eat my words. It is beautiful.
They are made in Indonesia. No clue on their type of government though.
Have you seen them in person? I also used to think that they are ugly but now I feel otherwise. No it is not confirmation bias, I've had lots of buyer's remorse experiences in the past and this definitely isn't one of them. The piano black wasn't my first choice and now I think it looks really good. Removing all the plastic really helped reveal the beauty of these speakers. But as they say, it is in the eye of the beholder.
Btw, welcome to ASR.
