EP 042 Air Tight: Tube Amplifiers by design. The Legacy, Engineering & Sound Ethos.
Step inside the world of Air Tight, one of Japan’s most respected high-end tube amplifier manufacturers. In this feature interview recorded at the StereoNet HiFi & AV Show, we sit down with Yutaka “Jack” Miura, son of Air Tight’s founder and grandson of a Luxman co-founder.
“Jack” shares the family legacy, how Air Tight continues to hand-build amplifiers with extraordinary precision and delightful sound and discusses future projects from Air Tight.

“Many people ask me what is your secret for making Air Tight sound like an Air Tight. I say nothing. We don’t use any special components…. It’s orchestration.” Yutaka "Jack" Miura - Air Tight
