Now your talking! They would be a blast to see. It looks like we'll be in the Paris area for about a week mid to late June.

Re: Visiting the Miraphone Factory in Germany?
Visiting the Miraphone factory is a wonderful experience... and what is completely amazing about the place is that it is employee-owned and all the materials come from Germany and the horns are handmade by artisans right there on site. It's a fascinating process to see.
As mentioned before the train to Waldkraiburg is about 1.5 hours (or less) from Munich. I believe it's an easy direct train from the Munich Hauptbahnhof (Munich Central Station), and Munich itself is very easy to navigate via train.
Have fun!

Re: Visiting the Miraphone Factory in Germany?
The folks at Miraphone are great. And you can certainly ride the train from Munich to Waldkraiburg. I think you have to go beyond it and then come back though (or get off in Ampfing and get a ride). Safe travels!

Re: Visiting the Miraphone Factory in Germany?
The German company that I used to deal with had basically a skeleton staff in August. I think that is a common practice - many employees take most of the month off. You might factor that into your manufacturer visits fwiw.
