Unusual countries for audio gear

I would add Java Hi-Fi, which is from New Zealand. We carry their most excellent & high bang-for-the-buck integrated amps at Alma Audio, and really like 'em a lot.

Cyprus, Serbia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Romania, Lithuania — very interesting.
I'm curious about this question in part bc countries/companies that offer high value for lower cost might come from these countries as they try to break into the market.

@richardbrand  Lovely country and I agree though there is some local audio manufacturing albeit small and specialized.  My company has a very strong presence in Australia and and we did quite a bit of sponsorship in you Supercar Series.

One advantage of being in Australia is that we are almost equally far from everybody else, except New Zealand.  Everybody wants to sell us stuff and we have no barriers to trade!

Enthusiastically representing Switzerland, we (Alma Music + Audio https://almaaudio.com) also carry the full Stenheim line of speakers and the absurdly good Nagra line of electronics. And let's not forget the incredible Vinnie Rossi, from the Peoples Republic of Massachusetts!

Thanks for the compliment about my adopted country, which by and large is hot!

One of the themes here is that cold climates might induce more thoughtful designs.  I found out through this forum that the coveted Dohmann turntables are from Melbourne, which is renowned for getting four seasons in one day.  On the other hand, our snow fields are bigger than Switzerland but give no signs of spawning any HiFi startups
