1.My Audio History by Kenji Kondo

Mr. Kondo was born in Kyoto in 1939 and he has been familiar with audio
from childhood. His audio experience might be
almost same as Japanese audio history.
A new column "My Audio History" is started this week and various kinds of
audio products are introduced by comparing his experience
with Hi-Fi Do's audio data. The first story is about JBL43.

http://www.hifido.co.jp/merumaga/special/040924/indexe.html

We told to Mr. Kondo at the meeting that we didn't have of JBL4345
in our stock, but to our surprise it had arrived at Nipponbashi shop soon after.
JBL4345 is very rare item and we will make a listening report in the future.

2.CD Picks of the week - Piano & Trumpet

The feature of "CD Picks of the week" is "Trumpet and Piano" .
Ms. Cappuccino is off this week and the recommender for her is
my friend whose nickname is "Trumpeter", because she played
trumpet at brass band club in high school.
Kondo recommends "Magic Hour" by young famous trumpeter "Winton Warsalis".
My friend, "Trumpeter" recommends " Invention and Symphonia" by Bach in
which Glemn Gould plays the piano.

3.Walking around Akihabara by Taro Akiba

Last week I wrote about audio cables and my friend suggested to me that I should
write about Power cable and plug outlet.
According to my experience, there are wall- typed outlet in audio shops which cost
tens of thousands of yen.
Some people say that wall- typed outlet is more effective because of tight grip
and others say it might be same outlet used in medical site. It is true that
outlet for medical use is stable and it is harder to take out as compared with household outlet.
I've got an idea to solder directly to the electric wire and tried it.
However, I found that it did not make any difference. My friend came to check the sound
but his opinion was same as I. He told me that he transformed 200V into 100V .
I tried to listen to the music with 100V
and I found some difference. However, I am not sure that it is efficient or not.
I set the timer for my audio system and all audio products will be turned off
automatically by timer. As I checked voltage of my house by tester it was 104V.
I understand that all electricity is controlled by Tokyo Electric Power Co., Ltd.
