I can attest to the fact that the K601's were in fact moved to China for production before they were stopped being made. There seemed to be at least about a solid year (if not more) of production from there before it was dropped from the line. Now, with that being said, I can not say that ALL K601 production was moved to China, but I do know that at least the ones being shipped to the US were. I am pretty sure I had communicated and confirmed from AKG (Harman Kardon) that there were in fact models being produced in China, as I was obviously skeptical upon receipt of my K601's only to see they were marked as being made in China. I can not find my email correspondence at the moment, but if I do I will post/edit.
That all being said, I imagine that the K612's are more than likely going to manufactured there as well, as they conveniently leave "Made in Vienna, Austria" that is explicitly stated on the K712's page.
Obviously this is only my assumption at this point, and not confirmed by any means (pertaining to the K612's production).
