The sight of carefully selected parts wired mainly with solid oxygen-free copper wire is artistic. .
The basic production method is the same for all models, from bottom models to high-end models. The attitude towards reproducing the original sound is the same.
Differences in price and grade are due to differences in chassis materials, shielding performance such as vibration isolation, and price differences in the parts used.
The folded, mirror-finished stainless steel chassis used in high-end models can cost around 200,000 yen depending on the model!
Most of the transformers used are manufactured by Hashimoto Electric, but the higher-end models use custom-made transformers made by Astro Electronics.
Some models do not use a Hashimoto transformer, but use a transformer designed by the same company that has the same performance as the Hashimoto Electric transformer, significantly reducing costs.
In this way, Mr. Kanesa, the representative of Astro Electronics, builds each product one by one. Therefore, it is possible to adjust the sound quality to the owner's sound preferences.
ASTORIt is also one of our strengths.
Mr. Kanesa is very busy preparing for this weekend's vacuum tube audio show.
