According to jfh@rpp386.cactus.org (John F. Haugh II): >Oh - and one last item - what was the country of origin of that >broken radio you had replaced? As most audiophiles will tell you, >American made radios neither break nor are cheap enough to go in >cars. And yes, my Japanese made car radio has also broken, twice. >I went looking for an American made car radio, which is how I know >they don't exist. I'll probably replace it with a 2nd place >German made car radio that will last forever ;-) That may not be the case. A few years ago when I was shopping for a car stereo, I checked out a buyer's guide and found two or three Carver products listed. As anyone vaguely familiar with stereo equipment will tell you, Carver is very American and makes some of the most innovative products around. The problem is finding Carver products locally. In Dallas, I know of only one shop that is >purported< to carry them. The case may be the same here in Austin. I know Marcum Electronics carries Carver home equipment, but not their car audio products. -- John Bodnar : I'm naturally radioative...you are too!
