In my humble opinion, Magnavox never made anything really good. Yes, they were driven by competition, just as everyone else in the business was. Many tried to uphold a shred of dignity but by and large, it's a money driven society.
Now and then a small outfit would spring up that made really nice stuff but nearly all of them went belly up or lowered their standards.
Virtually all the big companies sold out to Asian or European outfits. It's not limited to electronics of course; I have a Mexican saxophone with an American brand name, for instance. RCA is European. Fisher is Japanese. The list goes on.
