My pair of branch stands are very well made and were part of the first batch. They don't have any wood veneer on them at all, it's just a coating or finishing coat to the extruded aluminum post.
I was told at the Silverstone Show UK that the first batch were made in China. Due to apparent quality issues manufacturing has been brought back into France for the "new" batch two of the branch stands. Obviously this has put the price up; but if batch two are of similar quality to batch one then they'll be good value.
I need two more and will be buying them when they emerge as they really flatter the Phantoms and change the whole look of the speaker. Very classy.
