at the best wishful thinking. """
Well, maybe I just " think " so loud in my post but I think that audiophiles, each one of us, can do something about and this is MOTIVATE those Japanese companies to do it.
First step is doings with Technics that already is in that " direction ".
To do that we can, each one of us, contact Technicis corporation to send 2 congratulations " for the development of the R10 and at the same time tell that we don't want that stop there but that we audiophiles needs the tonearm and cartridges for that R10 and tell them that exist a " live market " waiting for Technics quality level.
A mail with something like that ( was an example. ). I think that if all of us are together we can make things happens. If we can really motivate Technics to cope our market then there is a posibility that Sony, Denon, Pioneer or Yamaha go inside the " road ".
At the end all these companies are alive, have the human resources, money and knowledge about.
Even some of them have access to technology/parts where almost all of the today audio industry can't.
Technics needs a stron additional true motivation to " hit " the high-end market other than celebrates its 100th anniversary and that critical motivation needs to go from we audiophiles. Some one needs to tell them we need it.
I invite each one of us to contact Technics through an email and tell them our hopes additional to congratulations for the R10.
High-end market exist because audiophiles exist. Products with out audiophiles does not makes a market for it.
LET'S DO IT ! TODAY ! be an " actor in the picture " and not a mere
observer as we are today.
Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
