弊社試聴室にて個人向けの試聴会を開催しました
2024-07-10
こんにちは!
兼ねてより個人のお客様から試聴のご希望をいただいておりましたので
最初は9monoでお客様がお持ちになられたバイロイトの第九を試聴。
当時の空気感が最大限に刻まれており、指揮者が壇上にあがるまでの緊張感や
第四楽章最後の勢いからの無音に観客の興奮が感じられる素敵な録音を9monoは余すことなく奏でる事ができたと思います。
その後ダイヤモンドカンチレバーのMCカートリッジAkikoを用いてステレオ録音を再生。
お客様のお持ちになられたハウスミュージックや映画音楽など、いずれもダイヤモンドカンチレバー特有の立上り立下りの早さで
耳心地よく音楽に身をゆだねられたと思います。
最後はピアニスト上原ひろみ音楽監修のjazz映画BLUE GIANTのレコードから一曲聴いてもらいまして終了しました。
お客様のレコードを聴いている後ろ姿や表情からIKEDA Sound Labs.の製品が持つ音楽性を楽しんでもらえたと思います。
最近何かの文献を読んで共感したことなのですが、アナログオーディオの火が途絶えない理由。それは
世界中のレコード盤の中に当時の空気感が刻まれていて、それを体験できるのはアナログレコードしかない!
という事です。
今回もバイロイトの第九を試聴して感じた事がまさにそれで、レコードに針を落とした瞬間1951年当時、
会場に行けなくともラジオの前で放送を聞いていたであろう音楽小僧とシンクロした感覚がありました。
この体験はデジタルオーディオにはないだろうなと思います。
そんな貴重なレコード盤が世界にはまだまだ沢山あると思うと、アナログレコードはもう歴史を語るモノなのかもしれません。
少し話が逸れましたが、これからもアナログレコードの灯を絶やさないよう切磋琢磨していきたいなと思っております。
IKEDA Sound Labs.の製品をご試聴になりたい方は試聴機貸し出しもしておりますし、
東京都国立市に足を運ぶことが出来る方は弊社試聴室にて音楽を楽しむことができますので
ご興味を持っていただいたお客様は是非、お問い合わせよりご連絡下さい。

Hello!
We have also received requests for previews from individual customers.
Today we held a listening session to listen to the MC cartridge Akiko and the monaural cartridge 9mono.
First, we listened to the Bayreuth No. 9 that the customer brought to us on 9mono.
The atmosphere of the time is captured to the utmost, and the tension before the conductor takes the podium is captured to the fullest.
I think 9mono was able to make a wonderful recording where you can feel the excitement of the audience in the silence at the end of the fourth movement.

After that, I used a diamond cantilever MC cartridge Akiko to play back the stereo recording.
Whether it's your house music or movie music, the diamond cantilever's unique rapid rise and fall allows you to listen to your favorite house music or movie music.
I think I was able to surrender to the music, which was pleasant to my ears.
We ended the event by listening to a song from the record of the jazz movie BLUE GIANT, whose music was supervised by pianist Hiromi Uehara.
I believe that the customers were able to enjoy the musicality of IKEDA Sound Labs.'s products by looking at their backs and facial expressions as they listened to the records.

I recently read some literature and it resonated with me about the reason why analog audio continues to be popular. it is
The atmosphere of that time is etched into records all over the world, and analog records are the only way to experience it!
That's what it means.
That's exactly what I felt when listening to Bayreuth's Ninth this time.The moment I dropped the needle on the record, in 1951,
Even if I couldn't go to the venue, I felt like I was in sync with the music boy who was probably listening to the broadcast in front of the radio.
I don't think this experience is possible with digital audio.
Considering that there are still many such precious records in the world, analog records may already be something that tells the story of history.

This is a little off-topic, but I would like to continue to work hard to keep the light of analog records alive.
