[QUOTE="Jcsaudio, post: 8633653, member: 673752"] “You get what you pay for”, but Americans want and expect JL Audio quality and R&D at planet audio and boss prices. The more educated the consumer has become, the higher up that quality ladder they climb. They start out in life buying boss amplifiers and expecting them to perform the same as JL Audio at a fraction of the cost. Then they learn much later in life and start buying, if they can, the quality stuff from higher quality retailers such as Crutchfield and some mom and pop stores. Some companies strike a good balance between good quality control and good research and development, but still use Chinese manufacturers with good results. Companies such as Sundown Audio, Pioneer, and Alpine are good at this. Retailers fall into the same category where Sonic Electronics is more like like Boss Audio and Crutchfield is more like JL Audio. The great thing about capitalism is that consumers will vote with their wallets and the good companies will survive and the bad ones will get flushed out. The sad part about all of this is that some companies refuse to sell out and try to only put out top quality products that costs a lot of money. This unfortunately doesn’t do well for their sales with some of them because Americans are too cheap to care and care more about the lowest price. Some of these companies you will see from retailers such as Sound Solutions Audio. Even the American made subwoofers offered by sound solutions audio like the original DCON and EXCON, which were great, didn’t last because people didn’t want to pay the price they should of cost for them to make a profit.
