"Designed and assembled in the USA" does not imply that every component
(or even any component) is built in the USA.  It means that the design
was done here, and the assembly was done here.  If Carver gets 
*populated* boards from Japan, the claim of "assembled in the USA"
would be a little shakey, since populating the boards is a significant
fraction of the assembly process.

The Hafler is a very good amplifier.  If you want to call it a "mass
market" amp simply because it doesn't cost $5000, fine.  I prefer
to think of it as a good value.  Give it a fair audition before you
dismiss it.
