Nice !
I think so too! Thanks for watching 👍🏼
Great store, make it fancy again, that lab, repairing it. They do both systems in Japan, EU + US, switch on them.
Excellent idea.
So he walks by the Yamaha NS 1000m and nothing. These speakers were so ahead of the times.
🫡
Hi India singing possible
Yes sir
Great video - you got a new subscriber 😉🦘
Appreciate that 😁👍🏼
Uesugi Bros please . Sony Vfet
could you change your camera? sometime no focus
It’s the glass casing making focus difficult. But I do have another camera now 😁
Hello. at frame 6:09, what is that pair of white speakers? the left hand side has a number 5 on top. Thanks for showing.
That’s the Mofi Sourcepoint speakers
nice video thankyou, there is a lot of resolution in their monetary system ,000
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
I can't stand how female singers sound like they're the Swedish chef from the muppets now. Wish there was a cable to fix that.
Thanks for video without speak and comment. Only Show ❤
👍🏼
Did they have any vintage portable radios?
There were very rare and I’m not sure if the frequency is compatible with other countries tho
@@Hifihobby Yes. The FM scale in Japan covers nearly none of the western FM frequencies. AM and Shortwave are universal in most cases.
You just posted a silent video without talking, chatting with the store owner, or giving us any information. Do you want comments from us? I don't understand... 🙄
I wish I could speak with him but I can’t speak Japanese. 😖 I’m already grateful to be able to video. Thanks for watching
7:36 That print would be super cool if you can apply a black light effect or glow in the dark effect on the light sabers. 😁👍
They do LED and fiber optic lighting so that could be an awesome combo
Great presentation! The products looks really fresh and seems to be available in all shapes and colors, but what about bass and mid bass absorption capabilities? These thin foam designs are for convenience (light weight) and do not have the correct properties for any frequencies under 300 Hz? The easy part is to tame mid and high frequencies, just saying... Cheers!
Good to hear from you again! They have bass traps in their catalogue as well. You can Watsapp or check out their website for more details.
Video was a little fast, but thanks for posting
I only had two hours stop at the store and couldn’t spend more time there. Try to adjust the RUclips speed or pause / zoom if you want a close up. Appreciate your comment and support 👍🏼
Awesome
Hi Simon look me up at SightsNSounds.yout@gmail.com
110V power transformer needed no, not for me
Thanks for watching. Do check out my other videos 👍
Thank you Sights n Sound! Awesome video
You’re welcome 😁👍🏼 Hope more people will visit your store
nice kenix. maybe i should place at my rooms
You should give it a try. You can reach her by Watsapp in the link in the description.
Thank you Francis, we chat before, looking forward to hear from you 😊
I'm looking for a bigger perception within my small room. Hence, I think I'm leaning more towards diffusion
That’s a good approach 👍🏼
Nice video 👍🏼
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
What kind of acoustic treatment do you prefer? Absorption, diffusion, bass traps, mix of each or none?
9:26 That's me
😁👍🏼
Your so late everyone video watching like 25 years late I’ve done this wayyyy back welcome to Japan sightsnsounds newbie !
Well, better late than never right? 😅
That's seems like too much work compared to how I do it. I just hook it up to my laptop and drag the files over. Everything is already titled andxI don't have to create new folders. Even when transferring from a thumb drive I just drag it to the music location without having to type in new folder titles.
2:25 pourquoi avez vous choisi la calibration à 90°, alors que vous mettez votre micro en ligne ? 6:07 Et à mon humble avis, je pense qu'il faut mesurer avec le choix L+R, car chaque enceinte, influe sur l'autre, et de toutes façon, fonctionnent ensemble.
I saved both calibration files. The 90 deg file is for home theater with mic facing up. You should measure individually as the adjustments are separate for each channel.
@@Hifihobby Ok, merci !
Try using the best cable for the first demo then use a cheap cable for the second demo. You will be amazed that your brain will like the cheaper
You can try it by watching the video from back portions and end at the front 😁
I have been using oyaide cables from last 10 years, good quality.
And price are not too expensive considering the quality too 👍🏼
Agreed, i live in UK but i do shopping from amazon jp as these cables are also available online. Here it is crazy expensive, 3 times more easily….
How we read the price tag?. The bigger fonts must be the price. But on the top, there is also price which is much lower and right on the bottom of the price there is also numbers showing price which is slighly cheaper. What do they mean? Can uploader or who understand Japanese can explain? Thanks
The big number is the price including tax. Just below and left of it is the price before tax. If I’m not mistaken the top right is the price when new.
Pourquoi se compliquer la vie avec REW et un ordinateur, alors que le DMP-A8 peut directement recevoir un micro, et effectuer la mesure afin de régler le DSP interne ? 🤔
The built in Eversolo room correction is easier to use but doesn’t allow you to upload the target curve and has limited range. I have another video on using the built in system
@@Hifihobby Merci, je vais essayer la différence avec REW ! 😉
Let us know how it goes 👍🏼
@@Hifihobby Ok ! 😉
Nice
✌️😁
crazy how spend is all .not like japan very very spend... cheap vintage audio in europe .
Thanks for watching 😁
Merci pour le tuto, super sympa ! 😉
You are welcome. Thanks for subscribing to my channel
Un grand merci pour ce tuto très bien fait, une petite question, que devient la garantie constructeur après cette modification ? 🤔
Warranty is supposed to be void if you open it. There is no warranty seal on the unit though.
@@Hifihobby Ils ont peut être un autre moyen de savoir si l'appareil a été ouvert, ce serait très simple à réaliser ! 😉
Many people have upgraded the LPS for the A6 and this is rather new for the A8. There’s no need for the upgrade if you are not comfortable with it.
@@Hifihobby C'est les doigts dans le nez, et les yeux fermés que je peux faire cette manip, ma question ne porte que sur l'hypothèse de la garantie !
👍🏼
Hello, i have done everything you explain but my DMP-A8 does not see my Umik-1 microphone. I reboot two times my dmp-a8 but not better. Do you know why, and what i have missed ? Best regards
You can try connect the mic to the Eversolo and phone see if it appears?
is there any driver for the umik-1 to install on the DMP-A8 ?
There’s no driver for the microphone.
@@Hifihobby My phone microphone appears (on my phone Eversolo app) but not on the DMP-A8 itself .. And the umik-1 does not appear on my phone or on my DMP-A8. On my dmp-A8, a message appears "no microphone found"
Does it work when you connect to the phone and you use the Eversolo app? Did you connect to the correct USB input ? Is there light on the mic to indicate it’s connected?
Just what I was looking for. Thanks for the clear, step-by-step tutorial.
You’re welcome. Share your findings after trying out the Eversolo Room Correction. I got better results using REW (video guide on my channel) so you might want to give that a try as well
@@Hifihobby Used the room correction to set up four settings: 1) full frequency at listening chair, 2) low frequency at listening chair, 3) full frequency at desk, and 4) low frequency at desk. The listening chair was sort of optimized by randomly moving around the speakers. But the room correction helped bring out details. Didn't really like the full-range room correction, changed the feel of the speakers too much. But the low-frequency correction was really eye (or ear) opening. Like you say, it's sort of hard to see on the Eversolo screen, but there were big 10db bumps in the bass response before correction. The room correction smoothed them out quite a bit. At the desk (which is not in an optimized position), it was like night and day before and after correction. Really thankful for that as I sit more often at the desk than in the dedicated listening chair. It sounds so much clearer. It was surprising how the "flat" frequency response sounds off. I had always thought that was the holy grail. Applying a bit of the bass boost like you showed helped. Instead of +4db, I went with +2.5db. But it's only been a day, I'll keep playing around with it in the coming weeks. For sure have watched your helpful REW video already. Will give that a shot in a few weeks. But for now going to try experimenting with the Eversolo built-in capabilities. I also like how it's easy to toggle the DSP on and off and if I'm moving from the desk to the listening chair, it's easy just to hit one button. After being in this hobby for over thirty years, and spending hours moving things around, researching capacitor or speaker wire upgrades, I don't believe that I didn't give DSP a try earlier!! This is a huge tool. Thanks again for the video, I would have been lost without it. Without it I would have probably used the room correction to flatten everything and thought it was broken because the flat curve really sounds wrong for some reason.
@edwinwong9547 Great to hear that you found the video helpful. My preference is to optimize the speaker placement first then the room correction to just for final correction of bass. You can also give a try for the REW as well, it gives far more information and you can upload the target curves. Let me know how it goes 👍🏼
How do you think these updated A8s compare to the new A10.
Have not had a chance to do a side by side comparison with the A10 yet
My Room correction app dies when I try to create filter. I've tried 3 times. I'm going to factory reset for the 4th time. It seems like every time there's an update I have to pull my SSD and do this and it's a pain. Hopefully this is the only issue.
Hmmm so far I don’t get this issue: any idea what caused it?
Update: I did the factory reset. Ran a straight spectrum using only my main speakers. Worked fine. When I added my Subs back in it started crashing again. So it's fine I can run without the subs included and then do the freq spectrums on them individually.
@@Hifihobby I do now :)
Kinda strange how running the sub causes it to crash tho
Am intersted if you integrated the rel high level and manually as per rel suggestion or if through the Eversolo and you know where they crossed as the blades play quite low
It was output from the preamp output from Eversolo.
@ what frequency are they crossed over at ?
HEllo! I was wondering: is it possible to use a computer as the source and transfer files directly to the Eversolo’s internal memory, without going through the external drive connected to the Eversolo? thank you
Yes you can connect the computer to the USB input on the Eversolo
What brand are the far right bookshelf speakers on black stands with curved cherry wood sides and black grilles and angled front from 1:17 to 1:22?
That is the Davone Studio speakers
@@Hifihobby Thank you so much, I found them online. They look awesome.
@itslessfunincanada No worries! Thanks for subscribing 👍
When you turn the device around you see those plastic like feet underneath. Is it possible to change those against aluminum feet? What do you think? Thanks
It’s a messy job because you basically have to remove all the circuit boards. I’m now using isolation feet below the Eversolo and it woking well
The feet are screwn from the inside of the A8? No way to remove the rubber layer underneath the feet? That's a pity. I don't understand why manufactures don't spend these 3-5 € more to install proper aluminum feet...
@KurtKugler-f2x I tried to remove the rubber part of the feet but was not able to do so easily and was afraid of damaging it.
@@Hifihobby I heard in a review yesterday that those feet are made from metal. I will inspect that, when my A8 finally arrived.
Yes they are metal with a rubber on the base.
99 percent of the time its country language locked to japan
Good point! Do check before purchase.
thank you for video
Thanks for watching 👍🏼

Thank you for this tour ! i love it!
I have an updated video coming up next week. Subscribe to be notified when it’s out!
nowadays. the thing for me is give me those fckn lowsssss. and plenty of mid and a bit of high. which you can achieve with now decent good driver and box. but the main thing is. you must have an equalizer.. for you to achieve this hifi blah blah. just get a decent speaker with box.and play with your eq. tadahhh. hifi.. THRU EQUALIZER.
the thinf about these hifi fever is. equalizing them thru these scientific equipments. but you can achieve all these thru EQUALIZER AND PROCESSORS.
If you want to do that way you can run DSP like REW and adjust the frequency response to your preference.
