jolida of china v. jolida of maryland?

who actually makes the stock jd100A cd players that all the audio magazines rave about? seems that china was the initial makers of these & that maryland was only there distributor!? a lawsuit apparently agrees. jolida.net explains on their website where they sell these MD simply copied there design & even used inferior parts?
what i want to know is who made the stock units not modded units in the audiophile type reviews in magazines that were done?
normally, i buy american but i like to support honesty.

Both are made in China. So if your looking to buy American look elsewhere. Jolida was originally made by Shenda in Shanghai. There is talk on the forums about it.

If you go to Jolida.com you get the Maryland based company.
If you go to Jolida.net you get the company in China.
The real story is filled with espionage,pilfered designs,and a global battle as to who owns the rights to the actual product.If you dig a little deeper you will know all.
