Beginning today, August 7, we are opening orders for the FUGAKU 10th Anniversary Edition, the Brise Audio 10th Anniversary Model.
Ten years since our founding in 2015. The NISHIKI cable series was developed to commemorate that milestone. What kind of sound would FUGAKU produce if it were equipped with the NISHIKI cable series? As the finale of Brise Audio's 10th anniversary projects, we deliver a model clad in a dedicated cable and dedicated housings.
Built upon FUGAKU's detailed expression and realism, it offers a sound that is calm and unforced in tone, yet highly expressive, with rich timbre and fine tonal gradation. It delivers a sound that envelops the listener like an ocean of sound — a comfortable, immersive way to enjoy music.
