I’m visiting Japan.

Do you really work for NASA?

We are currently saving to go to Japan within the next three years. I’ve always been intrigued by Shindo - but unsure if they provide formal tours. Jazz Kissa has a good map, but I haven’t been able to make it work correctly.

Japan is fantastic and the people are generally very honest. Good FX rates now.

The only problems are the language barrier and 100V equipment. I would get a guide for a day or two because there are a crazy amount of HIFI shops.

I prefer Hong Kong, they speak English and like making deals.

Have a great trip.

My in law came there 6x and he really loves it. 
he isn’t audiophile so can’t ask him much about it.
@roxy54 No, I don’t work for Nasa.
