They can make some good stuff.  For $200 I'm willing to bet AKG will not let their reputation get tarnished because they are making stuff in China. We shall all find out soon.

 
 
Good points, except it's already been happening for a while now. Tons of AKG and other products have moved production to China and for the most part it's been a smooth transition. Politics aside, there's little to worry about in terms of quality.

Most definitely. I would not question their ability to deliver very high quality. It very much depends upon their customer I guess. But I think this whole thing is kind of high-profile PR for AKG/Harman, so they won't let that slip.

I guess I'll receive my K7XX early January even if it ships today.
Germany isn't exactly CONUS and I'll also totally get into trouble with customs.
Wouldn't surprise me if I'll have to pay an extra $60+ customs fees

Still no shipping notice. Was 1977. My birth year. Now I'm 1972. Guess a few dropped out. D'oh! I'm expecting to be one of the last to ship though.
