Audio-Technica, MC type cartridge limited model, "AT-OC9/III LTD"

Audio-Technica, MC type cartridge limited model, 　"AT-OC9/III　LTD"

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Limited model "AT-OC9/III"

This product, limited model, changed the body of "AT-OC9/III",
the material of that from an　aluminum alloy to pure titanium.

Increased the rigidity of the base to suppress the unwanted　vibration,
to realize strong representation that sounds in less turbidity.

In stylus tip, adopted thespecial line contact needle of tip curvature radius of 40μm × 7μm.

By embedding in adhesion solid　boron cantilever of φ0.26,
 convey accurately the music signal that has been read in the needle tip　to generator coil.

Onkyo, released top-level MONSTER CABLE, RCA audio cable "M series"

　　　　　　M1000 I Mk2-1.2M　　　　　M1000 I Mk2-2.4

Achieved transmission of more accurate master sound source
by changing the wire diameter of　conductor for each the band.

Adopted 3way time correct & band with balance structure.

In the pin　junction, put 12 notch cuts, featured by 24 gold-plated turbine plug
and a split center pin.

Adopted　Micro-fiber insulator to prevent interference
between each band and PEX insulator of the latest　material
to increase the transmission power in the high range.

Consists of a two-layer structure　of "high-density copper braid shield"
that takes an invaluable role in reducing low frequency noise　and
"copper foil shield" to enable the transmission of high purity。

Accuphase "A-100" 40th anniversary of Brand foundation model

Accuphase、pure A class Mono Power "A-200" 40th anniversary
 of Brand　foundation model。

Pure A class drive monophonic power amplifier since "A-100" released in 1991.
Reconsidering　the power amplifier from a new perspective,
to pursue the ideal type that introduced the advanced　technology
to the circuit surface-mechanism,
completed the unit on repeated audition with a closeexamination for all parts.

By utilizing the combined the highest grade materials and circuit pattern technologies,
 alsoachieved a value of more than 1000 in damping factor

ACOUSTIC REVIVE, LAN terminator and Continuity improvement cleaner

ACOUSTIC REVIVE, LAN terminator and Continuity improvement cleaner.

LAN terminator “RLT-1”
Attach the unit to the LAN port that vacant,
that will suppress external noise to intrude, stabilize a router or hub,
and enable dramatic improvements in the SN ratio.

Inside the LAN plug, fixed resistor inserted,
to prevent the noise contamination by coupling between the terminals.

Continuity improvement cleaner “ECI-100”
Compared to conventional Contact conduction materials,
made ​it possible to significantly improve the conduction characteristics

by fine-grained nano-diamond carbon particles.

That, added to the high- tech oil, gained the merit and feature,
has led to a colorless transparent, not such Contact conduction materials that get in black due to using conventional nano-carbon particles.

"Headphones for hi-res" found in the quarterly ‘Net Audio vol.06’

"Net Audio vol.06" quarterly now on sale at bookstores nationwide.
 Book, which covers thoroughly the present state of the most advanced net audio,
 such audition reports of the currently most attractive models,
 including the basic knowledge to enjoy PC audio and network audio.
In this issue, corresponding to the independent issue No. 2,
featuring the " USB audio 17 model scramble test to enjoy
the headphones / compact speakers

JVC Kenwood HA-FXD80, inner ear headphone

JVC, HA-FXD80, inner ear headphone, adopted a new structure
 "Direct top mount" and JVC the latest technology of high-quality sound.

Regenerative power with a margin corresponding to the
various genres of music Φ5.8mm micro HD drivers
 having characteristics of a light weight and high stiffness, adopted
nano carbon tube diaphragm to achieve a certain dense and sharp sound.

 The top model in FXD series equipped with their unique “ direct top mount structure” secured directly to a metal enclosure by cutting stainless steel.

Difference from "HA-FXD70" in the lowest grade model is that adopted "dual cylinder structure" in which,added the brass ring to reduce unwanted vibration
to the interior of the metal enclosure, while a multi-port provided in the housing cover,
to adjust the back pressure of the unit through micro glass acoustic absorption
and stainless mesh materials.

Fostex released exclusive speaker box MG130HR

Fostex, released, pure magnesium full-range unit
and exclusive speaker box MG130HR

MG130HR, 13 cm caliber full-range unit using HR diaphragm made ​of pure magnesium.

In the diaphragm edge, adopted a urethane foam of polycarbonate-based
material formulation to make excellent sound reproduction. In addition,

equipped with corrugate double damper to operate HR diaphragm in a linear,
aluminum voice coil bobbin connected directly to HR diaphragm,
large Alnico magnetic circuit in low current distortion, pure iron pole piece,
highly rigid zinc die-cast frame.

Leica released four models of compact digital camera " Leica X-2"

Leica, four models of compact digital camera,

such as " Leica X-2" equipped with a newly developed CMOS in the APS-C size.

In the model equipped with a newly developed CMOS sensor of APS-C size, 

that used also in a high grade SLR. The effective pixels, 16.2 million, 

improved the light collection efficiency by getting a very large pixel size 

respectively to achieve low noise, wide dynamic range, 

faithful color reproduction. Lens, adopted the "Leica Elmarit f2.8/24mm ASPH.", 

configuration of 8 lens in 6 groups with one aspherical lens. Focal length is 24mm: 

(equivalent to 36mm on conversion by 35mm:), 

 aperture f2.8 ~ f16.0 (1/3EV steps). ISO sensitivity

 corresponding to up to 12,500.
