Hello,

I have connected Hijiri Nagomi with my preamplifier Jeff Rowland Corus...
It's a very good cable for its price.
It is very musical.
I have bought one to test if.
It's a very good surprise.

You have the Hijiri Takumi ?
Is there a big difference between the two cables : Nagomi and Takumi ?
Takumi's price is 3 times the Nagomi...

Yes I do, and yep there is a nice difference between the two. If you like the Nagomi I bet you'll love the Takumi too. Do you have a local dealer who can loan you a cable to audition?

Yes, I love Nagomi...It's a unbelievable cable....It gives dynamic on music, voices are natural...female voice are beautiful, tonal voices are a very good surprise. I had never listen my premplifier like this. My preamplifier is the Jeff Rowland Corus.
I have no local dealer in my country.
What are the difference between the two ?
Thanks

Where do you live? If you're interested, I'll try to find a Takumi you can hear.

The Nagomi plugged into the back of the Jeff Rowland Corus and the Esoteric K-03XS.
I have two Naomi now and it's a fabulous cable.
The xylophone sounds with surprising realism,.The timbre of the voices are quite spectacularly respectful. The separation of the instruments is precise and all the instruments are well clipped. The voices, like the choirs, are very distinct. This cable is magic. I am waiting for another Nagomi and also a Takumi ...

I have received my third Nagomi. I have connected to my Grimm CC1 clock with the Nagomi.
The sound changes. The voices are more human...

I wait the Takumi now...

Now I have Hijiri Nagomi on my Grimm CC1 clock (with Furutech Flux 50 NCF ), on my preamplifier phono (with Furutech Flux 50 NCF ), on my CD player (with Furutech Flux 50 NCF ) and Hijiri Takumi on my preamplifier.
I can say now I listen another system than mine...
It's incredible.
I use my system with a home theater by using the entry 'bypass' in the Jeff Rowland Corus.
I don't play in the same level now.
It's very very beautiful now and musical.

I use Hijiri Million Kawami ICs and they are wonderful. Amazing vocals, very musical and opens the soundstage. I can imagine their power cables to be on another league too.

I had tried Townshend f1 fractal and Wywires diamond ICs before.
I have Furutech Lineflux XLR and try Cardas Cygnus XLR. Furutech is good for monitoring, Cygnus is better for listening music. I have not tried HMS, but some people prefer HMS than Cardas. I think it's depend of the system. I like to try Hijiri Million, but it's very expensive and I don't know if it is a good choice between Jeff Rowland Model 625 and Jeff Rowland Corus.

How do you described this Hijiri Million Kawami in your system ? Where are they ? Between CD and preamplifier ? Between preamplifier and amplifier ? thanks

I have HIJIRI going from CD/DAC (Esoteric K-01XD) to preamp (thrax Dionysos). The best I can describe them as "open, very musical tube like and yet detailed".
