I read it somewhere that the massdrop version is made in China factory. Nothing against China production but have more faith in USA made quality and precision in sound tuning.

RaysclimYou can't believe everything you read on the internet. It's right in the product description: Sourcing & Manufacturing Drivers sourced from a US company Socket and aluminum CNC housing manufactured in the US Cable, tubing, solder, and wiring manufactured in Taiwan Partial assembly overseas; final assembly and QA in the US
Seems to be mostly an American-made product with American-made parts. Your argument seems somewhat silly as there are some big players from China in the audio community (have been for many years). It all isn't cheap chi-fi junk. Hell, if anything, most of the US manufacturers here have turned to absolute shit compared to the audio equipment I grew up with that my parents and grandparents owned. It's kind of a joke by comparison. Just my .02 cents.

jaydunndidditHe's really not. From the Noble Audio website FAQ: https://nobleaudio.com/en/support/faq/
"We assemble all of our universal and custom IEMs in Malaysia and China respectively, with materials sourced from all over the world. Some of the process for Prestige pieces takes place in the US."

dk604Key word is assembled; not made. There is a difference. Especially when a majority of the parts are from a US source and final assembly/QA happens in the US.

jaydunndidditAssembled is what I meant, but we're really arguing semantics here. Point is even their universals are not entirely made in the US
jaydunndidditChi-Fi gave me a chuckle . I'm gonna use that whenever I can
