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
Whew, just made it through reading this thread. After reviewing additional Hijiri Millions reviews, the IC and SC seems to offer the best sonic price/performance sonically competing with the very best. The Takumi PC seems to be beyond just sounding better, seems transformative. I’ll gradually move to Hijiri Millions ICs and SC. The Takumi PCs are a bit of a budget stretch so I’ll try one and see where to go from there. Thanks all for sharing. Great to know end game cabling

Hello, I have Hijiri Nagomi and one Hijiri Takumi. I have HIJIRI “Million” XLR between my preamplifier and amplifier: I can say: what is the CD crazy cable? I have more bass, more timing, better voice.. Preamplifier is connected with the Hijiri Takumi. Amplifier is connected with Furutech Nanoflux NCF. I can just say I have more 3D with Cardas Cygnus, but more life with the Hijiri Millions. All sources are connected with Furutech lineflux XLR or RCA. I can confirm that you can not judge just a cable but the system. I say that because I have changed one Nagomi by a Vondita DIY ...and medium and treble are beautiful, but the bass is not like the Nagomi. So I will test some combination later.

@lalitk I am thinking of trying million IC or speaker cable and Nagomi PC but as the prices are high I can only buy gradually am really confused as to should I go IC and PC or speaker cable and PC first your feedback will be helpful.

I recommend starting with a Power Cord if you are going to upgrade entire cable loom. And if you aiming at “Million” series IC and Speaker Cables down the road then I would start off with 聖Hijiri SM2R-L "SOUND MATTER" Power Cord not Nagomi. The SM2R-L performance is closer to “Takumi” Maestro PC and offers amazing synergy with “Million” IC and Speaker cables. Nagomi PC is good but SM2R-L PC is simply on another level. If I were to start over and on a budget, I would buy one “Takumi” PC for Integrated or Amp and SM2R-L PC for rest of the components. Hooe this helps! |
@lalitk I understand the importance of power cables but between the IC and the speaker cable which should come first IC or speaker cable. I can either buy IC first or speaker cable what's your advice. |
