It appears that Acoustic Zen products are re-badged Taiwanese Neotech Cables, What???

I have a friend who visits Taiwan every so often and he brought a bunch of Cables, interconnect, speaker cable and power cables with the brand name, Neotech a taiwanese company. I was totally shocked to see that the cables looked and sounded identical to the acoustic zen cables. The rca connectors looked dead on identical. The lookes of the cable what very, very similar. Also, the company apparently actually produces the single crystal silver / copper. Am I the only one feeling a little duped. My friend said that the prices on the Neotech cables are a very small fraction of what the acoustic zen cable run for, even the harmonic tech cables. Geez, do us Americans produce anything anymore, other than simply putting high cables together? Apparently Acoustic Zen is basically just having these cable made for them. It just seems that you can buy the Neotech cables which by the way sound incredible about the same as the acoustic zen. The reason why I bought the acoustic zen cables is because they sound very good, comparable to very expensive cables, such as nordost valhalla,etc. Also another reason why I bought Acoustic Zen is because it is an American base company, but geez, what does that mean anymore, it appears that all of their cables, parts, etc., are entirely produced over sees. Get it guys, cheap labor and cost over sees, sell for big bucks here. This kind of threw me off. Thoughts.
