GK, yeah saw that thread. Sorry can't help you. I enlarged & think the closest I could find were just regular Apple earbuds but pink. However the flat cable threw a spanner in the works.

By the way all, there's also a Fujiya DAC show in Aug 25th in Aoyama. It's also a possible meet although less personable. Chance to pick up Fujiya prods at discount though.

Hi guys, I've just received my Leckerton UHA6S MKII and I think some of you need to try it. I'm especially thinking about Shigzeo and Arnaud, I'm sure you'll be both interested.

Hi all,


Thank you very much to ExpatInJapan for hosting today's meet in his home. We're eternally grateful and hope we didn't create too much of a mess. It was a nice warm and cosy gathering and everyone didn't waste any time jumping straight into checking out each other's gear.

The full range of pix can be found here :-

In a word. Nice. But that is if I could get the C4 playing my files in the first place! I was politely holding in my frustration but I think Shigzeo saw right through me :wink:. I have to admit though, I've not found many amps that don't play well with the TH900. Even the little Ortofon Hd-Q7 works well with the TH900.

Thanks for the kind review! :)

Hi guys, I'm coming to Tokyo on September and was wondering if any head-fiers would be up to meet? :)


Alterstar - We are in the midst of planning something an informal head fi'er gathering, but it seems to have lost momentum. So your post will revise this talk of meeting.
 
It seems for the most part August is out ... or half over so hopefully the Fi'ers will be up for meeting in September.
 
Anyone?!!!

In Sept. my preference would be for either 9/22-23 or 9/29-30 as I don't think I can do the other weekends.


I am open those weekends as well.

I'm not sure when on September I will be arriving yet. Probably after the 11th. I'll update you guys! I hope I can find work there and permanently reside in Tokyo as well. Will be trying my luck.
