日本の至宝ともいうべき、光悦の最上級MCです。
世界の評価・実力共に極めて高く、日本のオーディオ製品として世界に誇る銘品でしょう。
製作者の菅野義信氏は戦前の中大法科卒のエリートで、当時ボクシングの日本一の実力者という特別な個性派です。
そして趣味で日本刀の製作をし、当時軍刀として需要があり、軍の品評会で優勝します。
その関係もあってか安土桃山時代の、有名な本阿弥光悦から命名したものです。
かの宮本武蔵が刀鍛冶でもあった光悦に刀を研いでくれと出向くと、決闘で傷だらけの刃先を見て「貴方様のような心の荒んだ方の刀は研げません」と断られた話しは有名です。
氏はその後スペックスの工房で、カートリッジを製作します。
社長の朝倉氏から直接聞きましたが、やたら鉄を叩いていたそうです。
日本刀も何回も叩いて製作しますので、鉄芯を同じ手法で叩いたものでしょう?
販売方法が特殊で一般的な知名度は低かったのですが、マーク・レビンソンがシカゴコンシューマーエレクトロニクスショーで、自社製品のプレイバックに光悦を使用し、その音の良さで一気に有名になったようです。
その後の世界の評価は、一般のマニアにも浸透していきます。
個人的に先代の菅野氏の全製品を、コレクションしました。
後に子息が製作を引き継ぎ、その後は武蔵野オーディオラボが引き継いでいます。
しかしやはり先代の製作品は、特別な存在価値があります。
出品機はもったいなくてテストで使用した程度で、ほとんど鳴らしていません。
本当は持っていたいのですが、もう歳ですので手放します。
初代作の世界的名機を、この機会にお手になさってください。
発送はゆうパックの予定です。

Calculation Result

Proxy bidding and purchasing services are becoming increasingly convenient. However, overseas shopping carries certain risks and issues. To reduce these risks and enhance shopping safety, please be sure to read the following information:

1. International Shipping

   Air Freight: If the item status is not confirmed within two days after the arrival notice, any customer complaints cannot be addressed with the seller.

2. After Receiving the Product

Please confirm and inspect the product as soon as possible to ensure that the product specifications, quantity, accessories, and description are correct

If, unfortunately, there are any issues, you can refer to the following examples on how to report related product problems:
1. Example of missing product information
2. Example of product not matching provided information
3. Example of damaged product information

Important Notes: 1. If the seller is unwilling to ship overseas or is unaware that the product will be shipped overseas, the international shipping cost for returns or exchanges will need to be borne by the member. You may refer to the EMS e-Express fee inquiry from the post office. If it involves alcoholic beverages or items that affect flight safety, the post office cannot be used for shipment, and only DHL can be used to ship back to Japan.
2. During the product complaint handling period, please retain the complete outer packaging of the product (including the shipping label information), and refrain from attempting any repairs or altering the original condition. Any modifications may result in the inability to process the case.

3. After Inspecting the Product

After receiving and inspecting the item, if you have any questions, it is recommended to contact Letao within 2 hours. Here are some reminders:

1. Please do not unpack, use or repair the received item yourself, and be sure to keep the original packaging to facilitate subsequent handling of related matters, so as to avoid changes to the item that may cause the seller to be unwilling to process.

2. You can call customer service, and the customer service will leave a message for you as below. Please provide the following information:
"Hello, we will first help you establish a complaint case for Product ID: _______ .But we need you to 2-3 clear photos of the product issue, including photos of the product problem, product packaging, shipping details slip, and outer box. Send them to service@letao.my and inform us of your desired resolution (failing to provide this may result in an inability to process subsequent matters). After sending the email, notify us in the customer service message. We will confirm with the seller as soon as possible. and if there are any related questions, we will contact you through the customer service message. Thank you for your cooperation."

Please provide:
1. "Product ID"
2. Photo of the "Delivery Note" (if any)
3. Photos of the outer box (including inner and outer packaging)
4. Photos of the product (Please include relevant descriptions to help us confirm with the seller)

Important Notes:
1. Do not include foreign text or other products in the background of the image.
2. Please keep the complete product packaging (including the shipping label information), and refrain from repairing or altering the original condition on your own, as any changes may result in the case being unable to be processed.
3. Please provide the relevant information within 48 hours to avoid missing the golden hour for reflection and causing situations that cannot be handled.
4. Due to 99% of Japanese sellers being unwilling or unaware of shipping goods overseas, if a seller is willing to handle the issue, the goods must be sent back to Japan, and the international shipping costs incurred must be borne by the member. Letao will use postal EMS international express to send the goods back to Japan.
5. As the goods are purchased from overseas, it may take approximately one to two weeks to complete the relevant processing procedures when issues arise with the goods. Please be reminded that you can inquire about the approximate cost through the EMS service at the post office.

4. FAQ

1. Issue of Authenticity: If antique or branded goods are found to be counterfeit upon receipt, clear photos showing the differences between the genuine product and the imitation must be provided as evidence. If unable to provide relevant proof, assistance can be sought to find a third-party reputable organization for a premium authentication service .
2. Leaking Iron Teapot: If an antique iron teapot is leaking, please take clear photos of the leaking area and provide them.
3. Transport Damage: If the goods are damaged during international shipping (to the pickup point), you need to provide photos of the outer packaging of the parcel and clear photos of the damaged goods' outer packaging.

※ Note: Photos provided to sellers should not contain any foreign-related information.
