I base my opinion only on the fact that Technics was a smaller brand
than some other famous names and that, in many years of reading various

similar when referring to a different manufacturer. Obviously, I could
be wrong - moot now that the Technics brand has been buried!


Technics is part of Panasonic.



Yes, the Matsu****a group (sp?) but the Technics name has been ended
AFAIK...??

The phrase I saw was summat along the lines like Technics didn't want to be
associated with modern, 'built to a budget' flyaway products so they would
rather shut down completely.

Probably a load of blx though unless anyone can confirm...??
