We believe that even one of the elements of material, structure, or design being neglected would prevent us from achieving the “emotional impact” we strive for. Zonotone’s products are based on the principle of “materials first.” We use only strictly selected, innovative, and superior high-purity materials to create our hybrid conductors. We have developed a DMHC structure that perfectly utilizes these conductors. This unique hybrid conductor is a realm where Zonotone excels exclusively. From high-end to entry-level, all Zonotone products are hybrids.
Deciding which materials to use, in what ratios, to create a hybrid conductor is crucial. Zonotone has invested immense time and passion into developing a unique “golden ratio” through repeated prototyping and listening tests, enabling us to deeply draw out the allure and enchantment of music. It is not about boasting physical properties but rather about reproducing the emotional impact hidden in music. During prototyping and listening tests, we listen to a wide range of genres, including jazz, jazz vocals, classical, rock, pop, fusion, and Latin music.
While Zonotone is often thought to specialize only in analog, we are also challenging ourselves in the digital realm as streaming playback becomes more established among audiophiles. Even in the digital realm, cables are an indispensable and crucial factor. Our LAN cables, developed utilizing the technology and experience gained from creating analog-related products, are noted for their superior sound quality. Furthermore, Zonotone, known for cables, is now also highly regarded for accessories. Our head shells, lead wires, jumper cables, as well as our innovative earth cables and RCA caps, have received high praise.
“Sincerity.” This has been Zonotone’s company motto since its foundation. Not only in product development but also in our interactions with users, we do not cut corners. We value close and intimate relationships with our users. We prioritize communication opportunities through participation in various audio events, listening sessions at audio shops, and “video manuals” on Twitter and YouTube. We hope you will also keep an eye on our website.
We aim to continue aggressively adopting new materials and technologies to create innovative and original products. Maintaining the status quo is tantamount to falling behind. With this mindset, we will continue to move forward for audiophiles who love audio and music. We hope you will keep an eye on Zonotone.
