    The product is top of the range that gratifies the all fundamental needs of people and also comes with its coherent design concept. However, the reality is that it is not easy to produce a product like that. Even with much effort, the result is often a failure. But there exist some cases out of the ordinary. So, I would like to talk about a product that possesses exceptional powers of perfection.

  2. Hidition X Dignis Armin leather case

    5.00 star(s)
    After purchasing high-end grade in-ear monitors, a case or pouch comes with its package most likely. But, people do not use most of that kind of case and buy another 3rd party product for carrying their product. I also do that action many times. One of the reasons why this action occurs is that even if the case has a great appearance, it doesn’t fully protect the (c)iem or earphone practically. Like always, there are exceptions. This is one of the cases in which brands that have a good understanding of (c)iem or earphone’ protection and who are good...

    To make high sales and profits in the market, product perfection is significantly essential. However, in reality, it is challenging to offer products to the market that makes popular public image and give satisfaction to high consumer involvement, all together. So, most manufacturers make rational decisions by produce products with minimally acceptable quality. However, there always exist exceptional cases in every area.

    Have you experienced any products from ‘Variphone’? I didn’t know even ‘Variphone’ brand name until I met official staff members in person by chance.

  7. Hidition NT-8

    5.00 star(s)
    It has not been very long since I met ‘Hidition’ directly and began to get close to each other. Since bought Hidition NT-6pro iem 5 years ago, it has been difficult to get close to them because I have not had any chance to get in touch because they have not had any external activities or special events in recent years. After contact with them, I found out that the image of Hidition that I knew was entirely different from that of the real. They are brand that puts more emphasis on customer needs than anyone else. Hidition, meaning of ‘High Digital...
