Crossfire XT series subs are still manufactured in the US.  All the rest of their equipment is designed here but built in China.

Eclipse by Fujitsu Ten is a Japanese company.  Fujitsu Ten is how their equipment is marketted in Asia.  Very nice high-quality components with world-class SQ but no, not made in the USA.  There is another line of speakers called Eclipse that are made in the USA.  Also high-quality stuff, but not normally used in car audio as they are designed for home theatre.

Some Eclipse has actually been "Made In USA", some has been "Assembled In USA" and some is made offshore. I guess I chould have made that distinction earlier.

That's cool.  I'm not a dealer so I don't get to handle too many Eclipse units.  Are the electronics made in Japan and the speakers made or assembled in the USA?  Whenever I go to Japan, Fujitsu Ten is always trying to one-up Nakamichi...
