The remote for the LM audio was robust and made from solid aluminum, the one from ARC was cheap and had a made in china sticker on the bottom. I had laugh...
The ARC remotes are made in Korea.

My WireWorld Ellipse 7 cables are made in Taiwan.

My Pass Labs, Magnepan and Shunyata gear are made in the USA. Esoteric is made in Japan.

You mean Pass Labs? I own the XA100.5s and they are made in the US.

Which Pass Labs products are made in China?

All are, it's big business, wages in china are ridiculous low.
You wouldn't believe the meega factories there who produce the formerly 'proudly made in usa' gears.
