In what country are they manufactured? They were originally Japanese, is that still the case? (and china DOESN'T count!)

stamp has "made in China" and so far so good. No Rust and four knifes are good.

I just picked up one of these from Staples after flipping through the 20 or so they had on the shelf looking for one made in Japan but every single one of them said "made in China" on the back. For $1.99 w/coupon, I'm not going to be picky but it's a shame even the Japanese companies are moving production to China. The same thing also happened to the Pentel Energize mech. pencil: the old ones were made in Japan but all the new ones are made in China.

I just looked on the box they came in. This is the information right on the back of the box: Audio - technical corp. 2206 naruse, machida, Tokyo 194-8666 Japan. Designed and engineered in Japan. Made in China. I love these headphones. I don't even half to put the volume half way and its more than loud enough.

A buyer of one is answering the question. These are made in China. I don't know what the importer may be doing with the rest of the world. Amazon needs to forward the question to them.

I did a web search and found that they are manufactured in Japan, Taiwan, and Luxemburg. So, whatever you buy, your guess is as good as mine as to origin. Here's a web site that gives country of origin for various DVDs: http://www.digitalfaq.com/reviews/dvd-media.htm

I still have them in the original package. It plainly says "made in china".

Hello--As far as I know, these are a Japanese import and the warranty is not valid in the U.S.

Can say who made them. Tag nor packaging does not say. But they were well made in "China" and are absolutely worth buying.

I bought one less than a year ago, and mine was made in Japan, it probably still is. It is wonderful, I wouldn't be without one.

The company is from Japan but they are made in the US. Their US Corporate Headquarters is in California.

Yes, they're made in the USA. The company that owns them is in Japan, however.

Mine is clearly marked "made in China" but it seems to be very reliable, is built very solidly and works pretty much as expected. Almost every consumer electronic product retailing at under $1000 of Japanese design is now made in China or Korea. This is clearly a Tascam designed product, and hopefully, Tascam also oversees the quality assurance of the production line. They are , of course, putting their corporate reputation on the line. It's interesting that many people today see Japanese made products as a "gold standard". I'm old enough to remember when most Japanese export products were literally made out of metal recycled from soda and beer cans and were likely to fail in the first few minutes of operation, if they worked at all. Just wait a couple of years and there will be people wishing for Chinese manufactured electronic products, since most production will then be shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyway, China or Japan, it really shouldn't matter if the device works well (as long as you don't worry about it being made of lead, melamine and used Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies). :-)

Since there is no claim they were made in the USA we can assume they are not made here. I was curious though and looked online. Sur La Table listed these were made in Korea. (!). That's a new one on me, but the only mention I could find.

what are you guys all talking about? I'm not sure wheather the seller changed the product photos, but it clearly says product of Japan on the photos I'm seeing. Anyone can clarify if this is Japanese or Chinese product? Makes me doubt evenmore, if people were complaning about it being from China, so the manufacturer just went ahead and put Japan on the back lol???

They were originally made in Italy - not certain if they still are made there! I do know that they last forever!
