The third High-end headphone show took place on Nov 10th. An audio shop Fujiya avic hosting the show and main exhibits are domestic distributors. This is not an off-line meeting and it's like a trade show rather.
Visitors need to have a reservation, the number of the reservation is limited and it was almost 30-40 I guess.

Exhibits were truly great sounding, especially Orpheus DAC and Headroom home balanced with Edition9 balanced, just unbelievable. RPX-100 is another musical excitement.
Here are some topics from the show.

1. Fujiya avic will carry Headroom and Rudistor balanced amps
It would be RPX-1000/NX-33 and Maxed balanced.

2. Ultrasone distributor Time Load provides balanced recable service for Edition9.
the cable is made by German manufacture Audictive. http://audictive.com/
I tried this one and it was very nice.

3. Fujiya avic will carry newer version of iBasso D1 (opamp, DAC LPF, charger circuit has improved)
I tried a demo unit but I am not sure it is the final or beta. some sound signature has changed but not so quite big difference, I think.

Fujiya avic provides an open public area as well and I personally had a booth. I brought my GS-X and balanced CD3000 setup to the show. CD3000 has been recabled by Drew with his Blackdragon and it was so popular among visitors as CD3000s are common in Japan. So it's easy to understand the power of balanced rigs.

Next show will take place around April 2008, I think it would be bigger!
