Central

AE Central is our 2nd showroom opened in 2016, with two studios featuring rare vinyl sales.

Central Philosophy

Central features two studios at AE Central, conveniently located (and especially so) for those working in the CBD. It also houses a vinyl shop managed by Master Chik supplying diverse collectible vinyl pieces.

The main room showcases Goebel Marquis speakers/1 x Divin Sovereign Subwoofer from Germany powered by the Engstrom Monica/Eric Encore preamplifier/amplifiers from Sweden, fronted by the Wadax Atlantis Reference DAC/Server, JMF Audio DMT3.7 Universal Transport, Zanden 1200 Signature phono stage, Synaestec Igniculus phono stage, DaVinci Gabriel turntable, Durand Tosca tonearm (Fuuga cartridge), and Thales Statement tonearm (Extreme Exotics cartridge).

KK Wong, the manager of these studios in AE central, is delighted to provide consultancy to burgeoning aficionados keen on immersing in the AE experience.

Divin Nobleness 中神曲with a pair of 岳飛 sovereign subwoofers at headquarter of Goebel in Germany.  #audioexotics #goebelspeakers
Last night, I was touched by the cooperative spirit of Elliot Leung (the composer), Henry Chu (digital artist) and the whole crew of HK Philharmonic.  The whole idea is creative in concept and innovative in execution.  The premier performance of Metaverse Symphony No.1 blended digital arts with classical orchestration in a very coherent storytelling manner.  The giant digital screen on top of the orchestra generates ever evolving digital images corresponding to the tempo (the mood) of the symphony.  It is abstract to a certain degree but it offers a graphical venue for me (audiences) to walk through the symphonic mindset of Elliot. The 1st movement is theatrically exciting. The 2nd is serene and beautiful. The 3rd is retrospective and inquisitive, and the 4th is flamboyant with a favor of Gustav Mahler. 
 
I was blessed to meet Elliot Leung at Divin Lab in Jan 2022.  I am honored that Audio Exotics played a small part in this magnificent program. Our society needs new ideas in order to move on to the next stage. The success of the Metaverse Symphony Number 1 will illuminate the hope of many dream-chasers out there with new ideas.

當年情 in memory of Leslie Cheung renditioned by Grand Prix Audio’s Monaco 3.0 powered by battery.  The Thales Statement Arm is navigated by Fuuga 風雅 cartridge on the groove feeding to JMF Audio PHS 7.3 phono rendered realism in uncharted territory. 

Tripoint Troy NG, Subbase Vividus and Pranawire Nirvanda respectively mitigated ground noise, RF noise and AC noise, notwithstanding everything is connected to JMF Audio PCD102 AC conditioner.  The Dartzeel NHB-18NS preamp and Model 2 are heavenly matched to drive the Cessaro Qianlong to maximum potential. #audioexotics #lesliecheung
