Ask the Chinese to build a new instrument ?
Here's what you get ;) :

Day after Christmas and everything from Santa was made in China. Man, are we sure we know what we are doing and feeding into? I don't think its hitting the gray matter and its a worry.
I'm taking a stand and banning as much as I possibly can from this day forward. Its our demise if we don't get our business and buying habits in order. Its worse than ever.

I just found a hint at another recording site (http://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=142324 where some interesting china mics are presented. They are right expensive and considered to be resold OEM Versions of amercican mics. Does anybody know about american microphones were capsules come from china?
