Kojo Seiko will launch a power tap "Crystal R5.1" with switch function from the company's "Crystal series" on February 17. The price is 39,600 yen (tax included). A model equipped with a switch function in the company's basic power tap "Crystal 6.1". Crystal 6.1 consists of 6 3P outlets + 1 2P outlet, but one of them is used for switches. The total output of 5 3P outlets + 2P outlets can be turned on / off all at once. Vintage and overseas audio devices do not have power switches, but many of them are to prevent sound quality deterioration due to mechanical contact. The company succeeded in overcoming both sound quality and convenience by adopting an Arcolectric power switch, which has a proven track record in electrical performance and sound quality. It can be used as a power switch, as well as a power switch, as well as PC audio, network audio, and DTM peripheral equipment. The basic configuration is equivalent to Crystal 6.1, such as "M.I.S (mechanical isolation system)", aluminum top cover, steel bottom chassis / sub chassis. The power switch is said to be disadvantaged in terms of sound quality, but it maintains the size, balance, space expression, and transparency of the base model of the base model. In addition, it can be expanded by combining with a model equipped with a consolidated function such as "Crystal 3P" and "Crystal C1P". For example, if Crystal 3P is connected to the previous stage and Crystal R5.1 in the second phase form, the front three units can be generated at all times, and the second tier can be turned on / off. The external dimensions are 59W x 37H x 363Dmm, and the mass is about 1080g. The input power cable is not included, and the company's "KS-0" and "KS-0P" are recommended. As a campaign to commemorate the launch of this release, we will sell a set that comes with the recommended cable "KS-0P-2M" (list price: 4,900 yen including tax) for free. Limited to 30 sets, the period is from January 17 (Mon) to February 11 (Fri) noon. It will be held at audio specialty stores nationwide and direct shops.
