More properly USA assembled audio

I would like to know of an audio component made with only "made in the USA" parts. It might be possible.

I know Nelson Pass used USA made output semiconductors for the J2 and SIT1/2 but that company is no longer in business. Are there any output devices made here? No question there is no tube manufacturing here.

"American made" would include the entire Americas. That is how Chrysler and other automakers make their claim of AMERICAN MADE cars even though they are assembled in Canada and Mexico. I mention Chrysler since their claim was especially egregious. Maybe they have dropped it by now, I do not know.

Not to discourage those assembling their products in the US but let's be honest those components have most of their parts coming from other countries.

Even the cable companies - they might use USA made cable but are there any high quality connectors made here? I am not aware of any. Would enjoy being corrected!
