In September 2023, vintage columnist Eric Pye (
@audioloveyyc) spent three weeks in Japan pursuing audio perfection in all forms. In this episode of the eCoustics podcast, he and podcast producer Mitch Anderson (
@black_circle_radio) discuss shopping in Japan for modern and vintage HiFi, and new and used music on vinyl and other mediums.
Conversation meanders to Japanese audiophilia and the obsession with quality, Japanese jazz artists (including
Ryo Fukui,
Tsuyoshi Yamamoto and
Isao Suzuki), and why classical music is still so popular when interest has fallen off in many other countries.
