Shinjitsu Audio

It looks like I will have the Little Hiro tomorrow.  I was originally going to have them today, however, I bumped delivery a day as my wife and I were out of town. I’m really looking forward to getting ears on these. 

I think it will be enjoyable. Please make sure the top resistors are in place or the horns will not play. The resistors can be changed to a lower value for decreased horn volume or a higher value for increased horn volume. They function as the ground leg of an L pad with the series resistor fixed inside the cabinet. Our larger speakers have the L pad series resistor on the rear panel so you can alter both values and get many changes in volume and crossover frequencies.

Your speakers have a transferrable warranty as well and you can upgrade within one year for a full credit towards a larger pair.

Hi Morris,

    Thank you very much for the pointers.  I am really looking forward to hearing these.  I’m sure I will reaching out for more guidance in the future.

My Little Hiro’s have been delivered, and are currently set up in my secondary system.  After a quick demo, I have settled on the 1ohm resisters. I have about an hour on them. So far I’m very encouraged.

The Little Hiro’s have been moved into my main listening room. I’ve since switched the resisters to .75ohm. These are very different than anything I’ve owned in the past. These are dynamic,detailed and fun! Not that my other speakers aren’t fun. (I don’t want the other speakers to get jealous) With the Little Hiro, it feels like I’ve moved a couple rows closer to the band. Imaging and soundstage are absolutely wonderful. Of course, you need decent recordings to start with. This is my first real exposure to compression driver horn speakers. I didn’t really know what to expect, however,I am definitely pleasantly surprised. I’m know very curious as to the sound of the larger models containing the folded horn cabinets. For an entry level speaker system, color me impressed.
