The sight of carefully selected parts wired around a single 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 of aiming for original sound reproduction is the same.
The difference in price and grade is due to the shielding performance of the chassis material, vibration isolation, etc., and the price difference of each component used.
The bent mirror-finished stainless steel chassis used in the high-end model alone costs about 200,000 yen depending on the model!
Many of the transformers used are made by Hashimoto Electric, but Astro Electronics' custom-made transformers are used for the high-end models.
Some models do not use a Hashimoto transformer, but use a transformer designed by the company that has the same performance as Hashimoto Electric's, and the cost is greatly reduced.
In this way, Mr. Kanesa, the representative of Astro Electronics, will make each unit one by one. Therefore, it is possible to tend the sound quality to the owner's sound preference.
It is also one of the strengths of Astro Electronics Planning.
Mr. Kanesa is very busy preparing for this weekend's vacuum tube audio show.
