I’m off to Tokyo next week, does anyone have any suggestions of shops I should check out?
On the hunt for Japanese made / obscure Chifi iems/headphones.
Thanks in advance.
Just for Fun

Unrelated, but now this song is stuck in my head…
This is something I’ve been looking into as well as I’m headed to Tokyo next month. Looking online it seems the two popular/big shops are yodabashi and bic camera. Both of which are large electronic stores with floors dedicated to audio and displays to try out. The other I came across which seems to be good for the used market is e-earphone https://www.e-earphone.jp/
Let me know if you come across anything good while youre there and good luck!
I second visiting e-earphone! I would have stayed in one of their stores longer for listening sessions which they’d be happy to even open boxes for a lot of in-store products btw but I had limited time to visit them!
I know this is a long shot but does anyone actually know anything about these campfire IEMs? It looks like they produced 2 different ones the CAM 5430 ($600) and the CAM 5423 ($1800). It doesn’t look like you can get them easily outside of japan and both are pretty different from the list price of regular andromedas even from a japanese seller. Any info people know about the tuning would be appreciated but again I understand most people have probably never heard them
I think I did post this before somewhere on here? but if not…
thanks exactly what i was looking for considering the cheaper pair. A little above my usual iem budget but there is a certain appeal to the exclusivity lol
