I could be wrong but I believe some of the other CRT Sanyo sets are also USA built. The HT30746 (current) might be the only HDTV being made here. Though I could swear Sony was building some LCD rear projections in PA. I had the current Sanyo's predecessor, the 30744, these had some sort of defect in which they'd lose the red colors so Sanyo basically replaced them with the latter 30746 (even out of warranty in some cases). I paid $281 for my 30744 (the price being the only real reason I bought it, really wouldn't have been my first choice for an HDTV, but it was for the kitchen so it wasn't that much of a concern), it was fixed under warranty, and developed problems again and rather than repair it again Sanyo replaced it with the latter. The latter is fairly similar. Its not the greatest 30 inch widescreen, its not the worst. It is however made in the USA. It gets a lot of use and so far the replacement has worked OK.

I do know these 30 inch widescreen Sanyos are using a Samsung picture tube and were in the previous model as well.
