You can be pretty sure. Here's some that are not (and one of the only ones, AFAIK). SET friendly, too...

They look very well made. Have you heard them, and do you have any idea of pricing?
Drivers are proprietary and are made in Minneapolis. Cabinets are USA made from thick, solid poplar wood. Copper, silver, and gold internal wiring from Snake River Audio is also made in the USA. Electronic components and hardware might be the only exceptions.
In 2014 I posted a review of the Concerto 4 floorstander (High-Efficiency Speaker forum), based upon a factory showroom audition.
In 2012 The Absolute Sound gave the Recital 3 floorstander an "Editor's Choice" award. Art Dudley provided a very positive review in Stereophile magazine as well.
Sorry, but I have not heard any of the smaller standmount models yet...
No affiliations.
The ribbon tweeter looks a lot like a Fountek. Could be a Chinese copy, though.
A chinese copy of a chinese ribbon?
Is there nothing the Chinese won't copy?
Yes, good Wonton Soup ......:)
I dont see anything wrong with them doing this speaker, what did they copy ..?

Hornlover suggested that the ribbon used might be a cheap chinese copy of a cheap chinese ribbon.
