Divin Lab
Divin Lab is the flagship studio of Audio Exotics located in Ap Lei Chau (Southern Hong Kong). It commenced operations in 2018.
Divin Lab Philosophy
One of the key goals of Divin Lab, is to recreate the realism and scale of a full-blown live orchestra.
The listener would not be able to tell where the sound propagates from, with the reproduction coming across as a limitless canvas. Much of this is in exploiting the potential of the time alignment abilities of the specially commissioned Goebel Divin Majestic loudspeakers/2 x Divin Sovereign Subwoofers alongside Arya Audio’s Magnus Opus – Air Blade Signature (180 degree augmentation tweeter).
Here, any listener easily distinguishes differences in energy radiated from individual musical instruments with respect to their locales across the soundscape. Also, silence between musical notes is palpable, since ground noises are tackled by two cost-no-object Tripoint Elite NGs. The room is fully treated by Acoustics Grove System rendering a natural kind of silence akin to serenity of a forest. AC noises are annihilated by 2 x JMF Audio PCD102 and a Cloud 9 AC conditioner by Pranawire. Then, 2 x Vividus are deployed to resolved radio frequency noises. Mechanical noises are tackled by SRA Craze 3 rack, Wellfloat Pegasus rack, Falkenohr 516 rack alongside numerous Arya Revopod, and 2 x Wellfloat Babel.
Simply put, Divin is a soulful experience of the highest order.
The playback quality of Divin Lab is endorsed by acclaimed critics such as Alan Sircom of Hi Fi Plus, Roy Gregory of Audiobeat, and Lincoln Cheng of Audiotechnique.
