I think more importantly
@sammy the squid that one speaker resembling another doesn't actually mean anything here. The new M&K 500 series was not based on KK's design - it's not the same wave guide and there are many similar looking speakers. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
There's no talk from anyone in the US bringing these over. KK would have to directly compete with M&K, Perlisten and others and while it's probable that the the sound quality would be up there, the money required to put a flag in the dirt would be astronomical and KK's eastern overlords don't look like they're interested currently.
