聖HIJIRI Users thread

If anyone can give comparisons to equally priced Synergistic Research power cords/cable it would be much appreciated. 

And Colin of gestalt, I have problem with you chiming in here as I hold no prejudices against you. In fact, if grannyring says your cool, that's enough for me.

I know I could have easily made a phone call but it seemed more interesting to me trying to get responses here, now on Audiogon. Thanks all.

@tomic601, Yes! That’s exactly what I meant. Thank you

@pokey77,

The Hijiri Takumi is around $5,300 for 1.5M power cord but the Performance line Nagomi is around $1,350 for 1.0M power cord.

Thanks @pokey77, it was getting confusing to me trying to nail down pricing of the power cords as the list of Hijiri prices shown earlier on this thread nor some of the links shown didn’t include power cord pricing either. And this link:

Shows the Hijiri HCS speaker cable prices roughly $2500US at 3M. It says (x 2) so I don’t know if it’s $2500US per one pair or for two? Is it one pair for the left channel and one pair for the right channel?

I wonder if gestalt has any sales as a previous poster mentioned? Maybe X-Mas or end of year sales?

@aniwolfe, I need your help on this. What was the cost of your Hijiri HCS speaker cables?

As to the scroll down pdf? I copied the url link and what do you know? I got the scroll down purely by accident and decided to leave it!

@aniwolfe,

Oh and they were better than the $3000 Shunyata Sigma V1’s in my system :)

Now that, got my attention.

@thieliste,

Call Colin and I'm sure he will direct you to where and whom you may need to talk to. He really is open for any and all conversation about Hijiri products. Hope this helps.

I found the most improvement on my Puritan 156 conditioner. Next in terms of level of impact was my integrated amp. Then came the dac and finally my server. This was my experience with my particular gear and system.

Wow! And Puritan supplies it’s own quality power cord.

Does anyone know if the 聖HIJIRI cables/power cords are burned in prior to shipping? If so, what duration? As this knowledge would help out a lot with the mentioned earlier 14 day trial period if one wanted to return power cords.

@lalitk,

Easy there big fella, I did not take @fai_v question as being negative at all. Fabricating/fabrication does not always mean an invention of a non truth.

I work in construction as a draftsman and the words fabricating or fabrication are used all the time. They too mean to construct or manufacture something, especially an industrial product produced in a shop or the field from some sort of plan or detail.

Almost everything built is from some sort of fabrication process, including our audio gear. And if you read what grannyring wrote, he actually took the time to explain to @fai_v the fabricating process of building cable from stock parts.

One of the things I respect about Bill is not the fact that he has audio knowledge I admire, but how he treats people. He try’s very hard to be civil to everyone and take the time to teach. We would all do well to follow his example.

Does this mean I’m some what of a pushover? No but the typed word can be taken wrong as opposed to talking to someone face to face. Or even on the phone.

We are to old for this, and everyday someone who used to be here on agon has gone on...Let’s enjoy this hobby.

Now, albeit I completely understand if one had a few glasses of wine or some shots of some fine Tennessee bourbon though!☺

Does anyone know if Gestalt sells 聖Hijiri phono cable?

I ask this question for the idea of having a full loom experience.

As I see digital cable is offered. 

The Takumi sounds wonderful on my A200. I think it offers more natural ease and fluidity compared to the Nogami.

I too am interested in the bass performance of the Takumi. Is it low, high or just right? Consider the sound of a double bass live on stage as a reference point for bass performance in a physically acoustical designed appropriate setting.
