Nice! I hadn't been aware of English-language translations, or web content. Only recently became aware that another major Japanese hifi magazine, Stereo Sound, has a YouTube channel. In the USA, print copies of these and more can sometimes be had through shops like Kinokuniya. They can be a bit pricey, but production quality is great, and I like the way they present hifi as a lifestyle.

Been awhile since I've browsed the pages of MJ and I recall the emphasis being tube-centric, and other than using solid state devices in the power supplies, the designs looked old-school to me.
