I buy American made products when I can but it's not because I'm patriotic or feel the need to cover myself or my window shield in flag decals. I buy American made products to support local companies and manufacturing. I like to make & fix my own things and so I appreciate the skill and craftsmanship involved in making things...regardless of where they are made.

Mass-made electronics are very different than bespoke equipment as we all know but even then a good majority of components & materials are sourced globally. I used to make custom residential light fixtures. The components I used came from all over - US, Italy, China, Mexico. The price point was set by my labor, skill and designs not necessarily the parts used. People paid accordingly for bespoke light fixtures and it was a 2 person shop which meant low volume. 

I have a mixed bag of US, Japan, German, Taiwan, Korea and UK made A/V equipment and none of it is bespoke. I have Normcore companies like Adcom, Schitt, Marantz, Rega, Cambridge Audio, Boston Acoustics, Polk & Audio Technica. And for now, that's ok. I'll upgrade as I go along with build & sound quality, future FI features, reliability and price will determine what I get.
