Verification Notes
Vintage King Audio manufactures professional audio cables and accessories in Detroit, Michigan. Website states products are handcrafted in the USA. Amazon listings confirm US manufacturing on cable products. Known for high-quality studio interconnects used in professional recording studios. claim-holds: Vintage King is primarily a pro-audio retailer (Detroit area); its own-label cables are assembled in Detroit by a local contract manufacturer (brand's own cables page). Wording is 'assembled', components not stated; our 'handbuilt'/'made in Detroit' copy should be softened to 'assembled in Detroit'. Amazon listings for the Vintage King Project DB25 cables carry no origin line (re-read 2026-10-24); I assume the Project line is part of the Vintage King Cables range the page describes - least-sure link in this verdict. https://vintageking.com/pages/vintage-king-cables "That's why we designed our own line of premium Vintage King Cables, assembled in Detroit, Michigan. ... We teamed up with a local manufacturer to pick the very best cabling and components to build our rugged-tough cables"

A studio's spare Neve modules became a store
In the 1990s, brothers Mike and Andrew Nehra were recording bands at White Room Studios in Detroit. After a trip to Europe to buy vintage Neve modules, they kept part of the collection and sold the rest. They ran that trade out of White Room while touring with their band, Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise, and it became Vintage King, which officially became a company in 1993 and grew into a large dealer of new, used and vintage recording gear.
Most of what Vintage King sells is other companies' equipment. The US claim on this page covers only the cables sold under the Vintage King name.
Cables assembled in Detroit
Vintage King's cables page says it designed its own line "assembled in Detroit, Michigan," and that it "teamed up with a local manufacturer" to choose the cable and connectors. So the assembly is local, done by a partner shop, and Vintage King does not say where the wire or connectors come from.
The line includes DB25-to-DB25 cables for linking interfaces, consoles and patchbays, and DB25-to-XLR breakouts for running multitrack I/O to outboard gear. The Amazon listings for these cables carry no origin line, so the Detroit assembly claim comes from Vintage King's own site.
