The image used for this Headphone Festival is the new high-end audio system "鳴神(NARUKAMI)," focused on Audio-Technica's new headphone amplifier/preamplifier. The details of Narukami is still not opened, but Narukami means "thunder god". From that I would guess that it is probably a powerful...

Not yet. And unfortunately custom version of ZE8000 is cancelled..

They have not said the X8000 is the final shape, but it may be almost this shape, as it has not changed much from the High-End show. They said they hope to release it out by the end of this year.

I thought the Madoo Typ821 had a very good titanium housing and sound quality. I also like they call the diaphragm as ”Ortho". The price in Japan is 244,800 yen (including tax), and the release date is August 4.

A quick impression from the autumn show. This is the YAMAHA 5000SE. The development of the new YAMAHA 5000SE began around 2016 to following thier tradition of HP-1 or the likes. In terms of following tradition, for example, the size adjuster uses the same slider design as the HP-1. In terms of...

I have Earin, Aria One and Erato Apollo 7. They all sounded good so you don't have to worry about SQ. As for Earin, use after market eartip to get a good sound and seal. I recommend you to get JVC spiral dots if available. Some left/right drop outs could occur on all of them but not so much IMO...

Yes AK70 employs the same AK connect software compatible to DLNA(uPnP).

Amos would take care of you.
