I found that for Power Cords, my Aurender showed the best improvement among my components. I'm wondering where you found the best SQ upgrade with the Takumi's? -Yes, it'd be great to hear about how your DAC and external power supply respond to the...

@lalitk  Wow, 300 hours to open up! Now I understand why it took you longer to provide your insights and I'm very appreciative. I'm sure that others will be as well. This thread has gathered a number of insights into the 聖Hijiri brand and I hope ...

@lalitk  Patiently awaiting the comparison between the three Hijiri power cords. Will be very interested to read your observations of the 聖Hijiri SM2R-L PC and where you think it works best too.

@gestalt  Colin, I appreciate the initial insight on this new cable. Will be very interested in reading your thoughts on this cable, especially vs. the Nagomi.

@waltersalas  Wow, thanks for all the info.    I am glad you mentioned the Nagomi and TWL Obsession. I will definitely try the Nagomi this year. I had been thinking a few years back about giving the Obsession a try but moved on from that for wh...

@rareace  Yes, it is an EVO3. It is probably two years old.   @lalitk  Hey Lalit, will be very interested to hear your impression of the new limited edition聖Hijiri SM2R-L. See my updates below.   @grannyring  I get it! You will have to wait...

@rareace  I am using IsoTek Optimum only on my Sigmas power conditioner. Using Audio Envy on my preamp (P2) and amp (M3) and Nordost Frey 2 on my source. Audio Envy, for me, is much much better than the Optimum, no contest. Planning to try Hijiri...
