I used this list as a starting point when I went to Japan last year, ended up visiting a few of the ones on the list and a couple of other "music bars" as well, including a hip-hop/funk/soul bar in Shinjuku ("Bar Box" I think it was called) one in Osaka dedicated to 80s rock and hair metal, "FREAK." If nothing else it's worth it to listen to one of these hi-fi soundsystems if you (like me) spend your time listening to compressed audio from a streaming service on a normal pair of headphones... the difference is night and day.
