Hi Romy,

I happened to visit your site and stumbled on the Sakuma discussions.
Just in case anyone was wondering what was being said in the two videos:

1 despite looking like a vampire, there was no religious cult like talk. No mention of spirits or ki, not even mention of circuit design or concepts.
2 all he would about his sound were "sounds warm", "I like it"
3 there was mention by the commentator that his designs were based on amplifiers from movie theatres of the 1930's
4 the customers said things like "I do not know audio but this sounds soft and nice", "I am an expert in album jacket design", "I like the food which does not match the sound", "my boss brought me here", "I come for the hamburger steaks, which I never tire of". Did not seem like a cult, thank goodness.

Say, wasn't that a Shelter needle he was using in the opening shot of the first video?

Hope this what somewhat useful.

Tokyo John
