There was at least one post that put them
down as "Chinese" speakers having nothing to do with Quad.

According to Quad, all parts are designed "in-house".



** Yep - "in house" means in Shenzhen, China - where the Chang
brothers factory is located.

The Changs own IAG ( International Audio Group ) which also owns the
Wharfedale brand - guess where they are made now.


Try not to be such a **** here as you are in RAT. When Quad say they
are designed 'in house', that means in the UK, where the R&D
facilities are situated. Yes, they are *manufactured* in China, but to
a UK design suited to UK ears and rooms.
