Default China crisis?

I believe that IAG (International Audio Group) own Wharfedale & Quad
together. They also now own Tag and all that comes with that.


and Tag McLaren audio was previously Audiolab, based in Huntingdon.

The owners are
Chinese, the products are manufactured in China (excluding the Quads
Electrostatics which, I believe, are still built in the UK) but all the
design is carried out in the UK.


I believe the new L range of speakers was designed in China.

Kef and Celestion are under one roof (and have been for a few years) but I
don't know in whose hands they lie.

Don't know about Rogers.



Rogers is owned by the Wo Kee Hong group which is based in Hong Kong. I
believe they bought the Rogers brand around 1997.
