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

@thyname I received the USB from @gestalt. Colin is the importer/dealer. Yes the USB is better than my very best build. It is simply fantastic. I have tried top tier USB cables from SABLON, Hapa Audio, Wywires, Network Acoustics and others. All of these, including mine, were very good indeed. I decided to try the Tchernov Pro USB and could not take it back out of my system. Now you must remember the Tchernov is some 4X the price. However, I have listened to other $850-$1200 USB cables in my system that did not sound quite as good as the Tchernov Pro. Again, my opinion based on listening in my system.

@grannyring How does the sound quality of the Tchernov Pro USB differ from the Network Acoustics USB III?

The NA is spectacular. I want to stress my preference is based on my system. I felt the Tchernov Pro had improved, body, fluidity and smoothness. It just sounded a little more right on my system and to my ears. See my virtual system for reference if you want.
