Obviously the USA, England, Germany and Austria (AKG) have well known
headphone amplifier manufacturers. Also China have some.

Let's say that we consider headphone amplifiers above $100.
We're not focused on very expensive, say, over $1,000 headphone amplifiers.

Do Russia or India have any known headphone amplifier manufacturers?
How about Australia, Canada, France, Italy, Japan, Taiwan,....?

We also consider the European and Asian and other markets.

Rudistor in Italy. Several out of China and Japan (uhh, Audio Technica?). But like so many times before, I'm left wondering to myself: "Why do these questions matter to him?"

Canada once had Xenos, and now it has Practical Devices.

Japan has Audio Technica.

The Asian Chinese market (China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and other countries with Chinese speaking colonies combined)has
- Little Tube
- iBasso
- Firestone Audio
- Travagan
- There should be others but I cannot remember them offhand.
