聖HIJIRI Users thread


Based on a discussion with another forum member, I've been reading up on this Comback Corporation brand. The reviews I've found have been pretty positive, but I've also learned over the years to take all reviews with a grain of salt. So the purpose of this thread is for users to share their input on 聖HIJIRI cables. When you share, if you'd discuss what model of HIJIRI you demoed and what brands/models they were compared to, that'd be very helpful.

A little background: a few years ago I was reading the Audio Envy threads and decided to give them a try as the seemed to compete with much higher-priced cable.  So I decided to give AE a try. I found both the $179 P2 and the $279 M3 to easily best an Isotek power cord at $1k. So that got me thinking even more about value products. I was about to give Zavfino a try and then was given another recommendation to give HIJIRI a try. So this is how I got here. I'll be very interested to hear all user comments on HIJIRI and this should be a good repository for the brand.

I just ordered another Hijiri RCA cable.  I will now have a full loom of Hijiri Power cords and interconnects.  Thanks again Colin King at Gestalt Audio in Nashville.  In the next 6 months I have to order 3 pairs of speaker cables to support the crossovers on my Aries Cerat Aurora speakers.  I can see me following Lalit;s lead and buying 3 different cables.

I am looking forward to your listening impressions of Aurora’s. I believe, trying different speaker cables would be a great idea as long as HIJIRI “Million” speaker cable in the mix. Like you, I am also using a complete loom of HIJIRI’s with one pair of Sternklang Speaker (tweeters) and XLR between my SACD player and the Integrated. My other source, DAC/Streamer is wired with HIJIRI “Kiwami” XLR’s and a pair of “Takumi” Maestro PC’s.

Not to derail but I’m curious if Lavricables would be considered on the same level as Hijiri.

@gochurchgo 

I never heard the Lavricables in my system but few others reported positive experiences with them. Honestly, what’s better or on same level is often contingent upon budget, the audio system and our hearing abilities. A home audition is a best way to determine what you like and don’t want. 

@gochurchgo I think comparing the Lavricables (Grand, their top-of-the-line) to Hijiri would be like comparing apples to oranges. 5N silver vs whatever the hi-grade copper is used with Hijiri cables. Don't get me wrong they are both very good, but I would think they sound somewhat different. I own a full loom of the Grand but I only have one Hijiri power cord and have not had the luxury of hearing the interconnects or speaker cables. If you were to purchase the HIJIRI brand from what I know I would suggest you go with the “Million”.
