We were delighted to welcome Kondo and Masaki San and the team from Audio Note Japan to the Hong Kong show. A really unusually pleasant big room was filled with the sound of music, care of the KSL ONGAKU 211 amplifier and a KSL-1000 pre-amplifier. CDs were spun by a 47Lab PiTracer. Kondo cabling DAC and IO-j cartridge, and a DPS turntable with Ikeda tonearm completed the electronics line up.
For the first time at a show Wilson Watt 7s speakers (provided kindly by Ken Chan at the Sound Chamber) were the loudspeaker of choice mated with Kondo electronics.
If the comments from the people attending were genuine we achieve the best sound of the show by a large margin!
Some pictures below record the attendance at the show by the ANJ International team (who are the international marketing people for Kondo) and the Audio Note Japan team, including Kondo San and Masaki San themselves.
