    Where to buy boutique audio parts in Japan?

    Hey all,   Very sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, I trawled but couldn`t find anything specific.   I was wondering where Japan residents get their boutique parts? I`m looking for things like silver wire, audiophile caps (including black gate), etc.   Thanks in advance!

    Little Dot MKIII for Alessandro MS2i - worth it?

    Hey all! First off, I'm relatively new to audiohphilia, so please bear with me.... I'm currently running my MS2i from my laptop with an iBasso D2 Boa as DAC/Amp. However, I have a pair of Grado SR80 which I pulled out of the draw last week after a few months of ignoring (haven't really used...
