about TANOSHIMI
Tanoshimi (楽しみ) in Japanese translates to enjoyment, pleasure, fun, or anticipation. It can refer to the feeling of having fun or to the positive feeling of looking forward to a future event.
This is exactly what this cable level does while you listen to your favourite music!
The Tanoshimi level is our new entry level with a full IKIGAI audio DNA.
Interconnect:
uses 5N pure silver conductors. You have the choice in XLR/Cinch termination with professional Neutrik gold series connectors. The silver has double EMI/RFI shielding. The cable has a lot of build similarities compared to the SUGURE level. This is why this cable is something special. It has a supreme price performance ratio. It will keep you up all night listening to music without getting hearing fatigue!
Phono interconnect:
uses 5N pure silver conductors. You have the choice in XLR/Cinch termination with professional Neutrik gold series connectors. On the tone arm side the Tanoshimi is connected with a Furutech straight DIN connector. Angled version is also possible. The silver has double EMI/RFI shielding to protect the delicate phono signal. The cable has a lot of build similarities compared to the SUGURE level. This is why this cable is something special. It has a supreme price performance ratio. It will keep you up all night listening to music without getting hearing fatigue!
Speaker cable:
is the first IKIGAI cable to use a different base material. It uses a thick 10 gauge stranded copper in a unique cotton dielectric. It has a strong resemblance to our KINZAN series in labour intensive construction. This cable has a single EMI shielding. Terminated with spades or bananas with Furutech gold connectors.
Speaker jumper wires:
uses a thick 10 gauge stranded copper in a unique cotton dielectric. It has a strong resemblance to our KINZAN series in labour intensive construction. Terminated with spades or bananas with Furutech gold connectors.
Power cord:
uses a heavy 12 gauge stranded copper within a special thermoplastic dielectric specified up to 600V. Although the cable is relatively slim and flexible, the current rating will be 30 Amps for a standard 1,5m length at 30 degrees celcius. Connectors are the Furutech α Copper, available in Shuko and US, IEC15 and IEC19. Construction is almost equal to the SUGURE due to the same grounding wire construction and shielding construction.
Digital:
- S/PDIF Coax: is based on RG6 coax cable structures, but thinner and more flexible. Core uses a pure silver conductor with a teflon dielectric to keep dielectric losses to a minimum with a high mechanical stability. Terminated with true 75Ohm WBT Nextgen Cu connectors. BNC will be on special request available. Screening is an almost 100% closed mesh.
- Ethernet: Gbit Network cable with heavily silver plated, copper conductors. The cable will have the same outer shielding as our SUGURE level. Connectors are the same CAT 8.1 Telegärtner ones just like every other IKIGAI series.
USB: uses separated data and power lines. Both lines use heavily silver plated, copper conductors.
The Power line uses the same topology as our SUGURE DC power cord. Both lines have a 100% shielding coverage by means of 2 EMI/RFI shielding types.
USB A, USB B connectors or even USB C connectors are possible.
Grounding cables:
grounding cables have been specially developed to match Tripoints grounding solution or any other grounding device on the market. The Tanoshimi level uses pure 10 gauge copper with a unique cotton protected dielectric, with a single RFI shielding. Terminated with spades or bananas with Furutech gold connectors.
Power ground cables:
The power ground cables have been specially developed to match Tripoints grounding solution or any other grounding device on the market. The Tanoshimi level uses pure 10 gauge copper with a unique cotton protected dielectric, with a single RFI shielding. Connectors are the Furutech α Copper, available in Shuko and US, and with spades or bananas with Furutech gold connectors.
