Shortly before the moderator closed the recent VTV amplifier thread a poster brought up what I think is a legitimate question: How can a US manufacturer sell a non certified piece of electrical equipment? Obviously if you build a kit or buy some brand X amplifier from China it is on you, but aren't there rules here and in most developed countries? And come to think of it, I am not real sure why you can import the Chinese amp. Amir has previously mentioned being uncomfortable with unlisted equipment on mains current, and I am as well. Anyone with a regulatory background want to enlighten us? Is safety certification somehow optional?
