Saycheese78 Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 Rip. A passionate guy who work till his final day's. From the other perspective, a fortunate guy who get to pursue his passion, even to the extent of full greenlight to engineer his dream products!
Goldberg Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 Hifi world lost another genius. RIP Mr Ishiwata.
MusicEar Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 He is one of Marantz legend, will be greatly missed. I’ve own Marantz across the years... CD-63, SA-1, SA-15 and SA-14 CD/SACD players.
malsound Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 The most recognisable Japanese audio icon, who else are left. :'(
Jagdpanzer Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 I saw him graced the Marantz booth in HK Hifi show not so long ago. No more KI signature.
