From raw metal, glass, silicon, rare earth metals to the shiny cardboard box it came in, it's manufactured in China.
You really are a clown.
Many of the high quality components are manufactured in Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, or Japan, but certainly not China. My goodness do people back home know anything of the outside world when it comes to who the global players are?

If you want high quality you assemble abroad, if you want strikes you make in England, and if you want quality & design in the same place you make it in Germany."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
