Hard to say what exactly this is but let’s speculate: A power supply for the Seikoh CD player? But the kanji characters are different...

It's the Power supply for the new Zanden Preamp

Wow! Howie, can you say more?

 

[amadeus]

I think its the Power supply of his new Dac Seikoh...?

Mr Yamada San and his lovely Daughter came to my my former house personally doing last fine tunings on his master creation ChukohPreamp before delivering to me.

His shirt contrasts nicely with the champagne/gold color of the preamp. Immaculate choice, Yamada san is a very elegant man!

I don't know much but I think this is it on display in Hong Kong (looks very similar to the previous iteration). It's called the Gohsetsu.

I know. We have watching the developments in Thailand with concern. Not to mention our own idiotic dance groups with 800 or so now confirmed infected!

New Zanden SE (WE 212) power amp (made for Audio Exotics) the Chouku Banri is obviously coming soon. After the Chouku and Kaun, I didn’t expect another power amp…

 

[LL21]

Wow...what is the story here that makes it different than its predecessors? Any specs?

 

[Marcus]

Nothing else so far.

 

[Audiocrack]

What about Zanden’s new super (red book) dac: will it indeed be launched?

 

[marmota]

It's quite confusing that he's launching another 212 power amp (and another preamp, Gohsetsu) instead of the DAC, considering that both Chouku and Chukoh were the very best he could do according to him. Still, quite interesting and the new amp will probably be amazing by any means even if I'm more curious about the upcoming DAC.

 

[LL21]

Yes...the Seikoh, supposedly the final word from Yamada San in Redbook-only 16/44.1khz. Was originally supposed to be released in 2020.
