Ayon - where is it REALLY manufactured ?

I used to own an Orion integrated. Great amp, great sound.

Something keeps bothering me though - I stumbled on a european e-zine hifi site where they were interviewing someone from Ayon in Austria.

He mentioned that the amps originated from China (under Ayon specs) where they received some final assembly and tweaking in Austria.

This might explain why it doesnt say ''Made in Austria'' on the back of the amps, just ''Austria''.

So, are we being led to beleive that this stuff is completely made in Europe when in fact it is not?

Everytime I tried to get a straight answer from Ayon USA on this topic - I came up empty....

Mcintosh, Wadia & Sonus Faber are now owned and have been owned by a Chinese conglomerate for 6 years now.

Where on the Mcinstosh, Wadia and Sonus Faber site does it state that a Chinese company owns them. Parts, Chassis come from all over the world, everyone know this. When I was at the Munich show, Ayon had an open house and I went to Gratkorn Austria. A real modern super factory.
