In all my internet trolling I've seen way more Rega QC posts than Lumin or Topping, for instance, imo the "chinese built = crap" stereotype is less relevant nowadays, at least with known manufacturers (like Rega
).
My Naim Nac N172xs and my mother's Uniti 2 screens are dead, by the way, a fault Naim knew about but didn't want to cover unless threatened with lawsuit. Mine died in 3 years (didn't bother registering it for 5y warranty, 'cause I said to myself "what can go wrong with this expensive, well made, luxury product?"). Now it costs 500 pounds to be serviced by Naim, and you can only do it there. I love their amps, I love how Rega turntables sound, but goes to show the country is irrelevant, it's company related.
