Their is a HUGE difference between what happen with Japan and what is happening now with China.
Japan is a 1st world country and a democracy. China is neither.
Quad may appear to be based in Huntingdon but it is just that appearance. They are a wholly owned Chinese company.

Is there so much difference China now compared with Japan 50 years ago when they slaughtered the camera and motorcycle industries of the West? Their cameras and mcs were better than those they were competing with. I suspect we'll consider much the same with top quality modern Chinese production in years to come.

And are current Quads in any way inferior compared with ones built in Huntingdon? No.
The quality of the goods coming out of Japan was not the point. Big difference between 1st world democracy and 3rd world totalitarian state.
As for the quality of the current Quad offerings they are good a step above the typical Chinese made dreck but not nearly to the same level of engineering and overall design excellence of the UK/Walker designed/produced products.
