    I'd say it really depends on what you are after. In the USA Flex and
    Elecraft seem to have lots of customers and in the UK there are a lot
    of specialist audio companies that sell highly sought-after products.

    The UK could have done this much better but remember that the finance
    people like profits and manufacturing is less of a guarantee of those so getting investment is much more difficult here.
