Akihabara's high-end headphones and earphones store

When you get tired from busy days at school or work,I really want to listen to my favorite music at high volume with high-quality speakers.That's the general feeling.
However, many properties have thin walls like Re〇Palace, and you have to play music from speakers not only at night but even during the day, fearing trouble with neighboring residents.

That point,With headphones or earphones, you don't have to worry about disturbing your neighbors.Plus, you don't have to worry about where to place it in the room like you would with a speaker!
In fact, we live in an age where you can listen to good sound with headphones or earphones!

Ahh!! The most amazing sound!!
Shure"SRH1840"!
Shure's first open-back headphonesandThe author is a Shure believerI have also used them, and the precise resonance and delicacy of the high notes and the accurate bass expression are amazing. These headphones allow you to hear the left and right balance of the sound just like a speaker, and they fit snugly in your ears without having to worry about the side pressure that is unique to Shure, so I highly recommend them! (Sudden stealth marketing)
I think I'd be able to have a great drink with the waiter who chose this selection!

What!?
Ultra-high-end planar magnetic headphones developed by JPS Labs"Abyss ab-1266"There it is!
They are bulky and weigh 620g, which is quite heavy for headphones!The price is super high!!
This was also available for listening, so I was able to try it out for a little while,

I'll tell you exactly what happened! I thought they were big headphones, but when I listened, I realized I had speakers attached to my ears! I... well... rather than just experiencing it, it was something completely beyond my comprehension... I know you probably don't understand what I'm talking about, but I didn't understand what they did to me either... (just like I said)

If you're interested, be sure to try out the Polnareff experience with these super headphones!
Incidentally It is a made-to-order product, so you will have to wait a while for it to arrive.

There are also second-hand ones (serious)

e-Earphone will be relocated on April 22, 2021. For details, please see below.

Apple wireless earphones"AirPods"Since its release, various other companies have released products, and it seems that the era is moving towards wireless.
Perhaps as a result of this, Yodobashi Camera also seems to be putting effort into wireless.
Among them are the much talked about Master & Dynamic completely wireless earphones, which were released last November."MW07"However, it was already out of stock in mid-February. When I asked the store clerk, he said that it had once sold out and was restocked in early February this year.Sold out in less than a monthThat.
