    Being in engineering and manufacturing I very much appreciate these "how they are made" videos hosted by Jana. It makes me lust for some of those presses and CNC machines. Looking forward to John's review of the Tyr. Schiit monoblocks. Oh yeah, tacos can do that to you.... ;-) Seriously loved the sticker, "Skilled labor isn't cheap; Cheap labor isn't skilled". That axiom bears repeating often.

    Being resident in Europe is almost impossible to get Schiit products, locally available and in stock and reasonably priced. The European retail distributor is not really helping in this regard. If you order direct from Schiit in the US, as I have done in the past, you are faced with insane shipping costs, local import taxes, local VAT, shipping company warehouse expenses etc, making the whole process a nightmare and very costly. I would suggest that Schiit, since at least in the US they are adhering to the direct to consumer model, to have a look to what some Chinese and Canadian companies are doing with European logistic centers that allow for in time warehousing and processing of orders from countries like China, and get on board. There are a number of these companies to choose from, based in the Netherlands, Belgium and other countries and utilizing their services significantly helps reduce the end European consumer price since it bypasses the local European distributor margin, and offers large scale economies for shipping and customs processing etc. Sometimes US companies forget that having a great product is not enough to assume great sales in the rest of the world, and make very little or no effort to investigate alternative direct to consumer distribution options available in this global economy.

    • @jean-paulschweitzer6211

      To sell in Europe the products needs CE (EMI, ESD), REACH and RoHS, that´s the problem then that are costs!

    • @zzillezz
      @zzillezz 2 роки тому

      I feel your pain. Living in Belgium, have bought from the EU distributor in the Netherlands and from US directly. First didn't have the new products in stock for a very long time, second option cost me a whole lot more in taxes and customs. Both are not ideal. Contacted the EU distributor and they said Schiit didn't have enough product to meet US demand, let alone ship products to distributors around the world. So I guess we'll have to wait until stocks can be at a higher level. And that won't be soon I guess. Still, I love their products and the vision behind the brand.

    • @zzillezz
      @zzillezz 2 роки тому +1

      @@jean-paulschweitzer6211 All the Schiit products I have are CE certified. The logo is on the devices. Otherwise it would be illegal to sell these in the EU. CE certification is a one time cost for the manufacturer per product of about €1000 / $1000. So that's not too expensive.
