Kondo-Audio Note Japan and Audio Note UK

whats the story here ?

am a bit confused.

e.g. there is the famous audio note ongaku here, from japan.

http://www.audionote.co.jp/en/products/power_amplifier/ongaku.html

then there is the Gaku-on from audio note in the uk ?

http://www.audionote.co.uk/products/amps_monoblock/gaku-on_01.shtml

look completely different ?

so which is the audio note ongaku ?

or are they indeed completely different beasts and the name audio note is universally applicable in different countries to different things ?

is there any connection between the brands ? products ? perhaps they share names but make different products ? and they do delve in different product ranges it would seem

almost feel like asking .... can the real audio note please put their hand up
