As the title suggests, this does not read as "amp-three". No Amp1 nor Amp2 here. This is a "Audiophile MP3" player. Also, A is for Affordable, Accurate reproduction and so on. As the name implies, this is a one-piece solution for us portable amp lovers who does not happy with DAP alone.

Rainy season and hydrangea

Posted 06-21-2009 at 12:34 PM by Sasaki (From Japan - by Sasaki)

Contrary to nice April, June is our worst season as this is the rainy season. We have rain most of the time. Today is no exception.
However, we can find a silver lining in this worst time. That's Ajisai(hydrangea) flowers.

I went to take some photos of hydrangea flowers. Here is some.

Posted 06-09-2009 at 01:59 PM by Sasaki (From Japan - by Sasaki)

I was so amazed by this new opt-cable for iBasso D10!

Updated 05-14-2009 at 03:41 PM by Sasaki

We had a long holiday that is called golden week at the first week of May.
Japanese people are often described as work bees but this period of time is different.
I am no exception. I charge iPhone battery twice a day but I rarely charge my own one.
So during the holidays I went to charge my battery by onsen hot-springs on the north Japan. The hot-spring is called Izaka onsen. The hotels are located along side of a river, a typical onsen town. Here is also a public bath which...
