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.

Here is their website: www.combak.net

Hi everyone,

I'm currently testing Hijiri cables. I've reset the system and am choosing all new cables.

I already know that I'll stick with the Hijiri Million Kiwami RCA interconnect between the Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC and the SE ANK Kit1 300b. What this Kwami brings is amazing.

The Sound Matter connected to the amplifier and the Nogami to the DAC also play beautifully. The question is, would two SM2R-Ls playing together bring benefits?

The Hijiri H-SLC Million connected to speakers brings a huge amount of emotion and resolution, especially in jazz, small bands and vocals.

But here's a question for you as long-time users of Kiuchi-san cables: my speakers are Zingali Overture 2 bi-wired. What jumpers do you recommend for Hijiri cables?

Best!

I own a full loom of HIJIRI Million Series cables. IME, SM2R-L would be an amazing upgrade over Nagomi in your system. Mola Mola is an excellent DAC and the SM will do wonders there. A pair of SM gets you very close to "TAKUMI" Maestro Power Cord.

For Jumpers, request your distributor to special order jumpers from Combak. If that’s not possible, then pick a high quality jumpers made from OCC wire.

@lalitk

thank you for your answer... with each day of listening I am getting closer to the thought that Hijiri will also become my full loom.

And here is a link to a completely new review:

Hey chudysound,

I have a Takumi pc on my Mola Mola Tambaqui and the synergy is great! The dac sounds smoother, more open, and more musical.

If you can’t swing for theTakumi get The SML it sounds pretty close.

I have three Takumi’s and love them. They are very detailed and open, but manage to be beautifully fleshed out. No etched hi-fi sound at all, just pure music!
