Tokyo Audio Show took place from 10/3 until 10/5. I've taken some pics from the highly informative www.hifimusic.co.kr and translated their captions for your amusement. The coverage is written by audio writer Yim Jung Hoon.
Esoteric showed with Tannoy and Avantgarde, obviously enough from the pics. Kind of shows the difference between East and West audio thinking, too...
Boulder's show room, with Westlake.
Goldmund has an iPod transport. Those days of Goldmund Studio TT are long gone, for better or for worse. 
Mark Levinson's No. 512, their new digital source.
And something that piques my curiosity for obvious reasons: the new turntable from AirTight! Very minimalistic & 70s-retro.
Tannoys everywhere. The Luxman room.
Accuphase room, with JBL DD66000 speakers. I'm very interested in hearing these JBLs. They have a huge following among Japanese audiophiles, topping the list of audio mags and polls. Apparently, Accuphase showed with DD66000 in last year's show as well.
The writer notes that this years Tokyo show featured a lot of budget items and iPod-related ancillaries, perhaps reflecting the state of the world economy...
