Seattle / United States

Shibuya Hi-Fi ↗

Equipment in use

A 1974 Marantz 2325 receiver is reported in rotation with Luxman amplification in the Hi-Fi Room. It is an alternative playback configuration rather than a simultaneous second amplifier chain.

Inside the system

Shibuya Hi-Fi deliberately separates three listening environments: Klipschorns with Luxman in the HiFi room, JBL speakers with Naim electronics at the bar, and Cathode Bias’s bespoke horn system in the lounge. These should not be described as one interchangeable inventory.
