Price Of Japanese Arcade Machines

This has been great for printing decals for our arcade machines.

Japanese made and great performance in this price range

Good speakers for the price. We purchased these for our editing machines.

First thing first. I love this little player that came to replace my trusty but aging Onkyo DP-S1. The hardware is good. I like the decision to use Android as an OS; that adds a lot of flexibility to what you can do with the player. I won't list all the great features and rather concentrate on the shortcomings. Because of the OS, it takes some time for the player to start. Like an aged Android phone, which attests to the speed of the CPU. Once started, it's all good. Starting/stopping, especially stopping track can be laggy. Battery life is on the shorter side. I would say 3-4 hours, although I never really timed it. Some decisions on playlist creation and track shuffling are questionable, but it's a matter of taste and habit. The biggest deal for many is that, unlike the international/Japanese version, the US version of the player has a gain limiter. For that matter, I've ordered a Japanese version for almost the same price. Overall, this player is well worth the price. I am not so sure that would be the case with its older cousin.

Great lens at a fair price. Outstanding Japanese optics for a fraction of what a Leica will cost you. This 50mm is a smart choice for Leica rangefinder cameras. It's sharp and it pairs well with the M10's 24-megapixel sensor. My rangefinder calibration was spot-on with this Voigtlander.

For Chinese glass this is as good as I have found especially at the price point offered. Not quite as good as the next level up Japanese scopes but for a PRS22 rig it’s perfect.

Excellent tool for the price. This is a must-have for those tiny little screws on Japanese cameras. If you do manage to catch one of them with an American screwdriver you will soon strip the head. This little tool grips them perfectly so you can insert and withdraw those little screws with zero damage to either the tool or the screwdriver. The rotating head and knurled body are very helpful details.

japanese capacitors = high quality

Good price and so far has worked reliably. Helps with the several Virtual Machines I run.

I buy it with each new laptop to be safe. The new machines are expensive but the Applecare price is the same making it a better value.
