Is this correct?

Also, I know they certainly manufacture various or all of the models
in the various ranges, but does anybody know if they are actually
designed in China now?

Also, does anyone know of any other 'names' (speakers or other
equipment) now in the hands of the Chinese? (Not just manufactured
there - that's almost everybody now, from what I can see....)

They belong to two brothers Michael and Bernard Chang from China they own

That's rather annoying to find Quad in there too :-(
