Sheung Wan

AE Sheung Wan is the very first showroom of AE, and commenced operations in 2009. Here is where it all began.

Sheung Wan Philosophy

AE Sheung Wan exemplifies the recreation of a theatrical experience. Audiences are able to “watch” the music as though there is a screen in front. But the unique experience goes beyond a physical screen because space co-sharing with musicians inside the recording is possible here. The transient resolution and dynamic capabilities of this system is enthralling.

The extreme transient response of Dartzeel electronics is manifested by the special commission Qian Long speakers by Cessaro for AE, which features a pair of 18″ bass driver driven actively by internal amplifiers. They are further augmented by Arya’s Air Blade Signature (180 degree augmentation tweeter). Grand Prix Audio’s Monaco 3.0 analog turntable with the latest battery power supply is the pinnacle of vinyl playback given the ultra precision in speed control rendering presence of musician never ever experienced by anyone before as evidenced by numerous videos posted on AE Facebook. There is also an Equilibrium turntable specially made by AE by Da Vinci Audio with the Virtu Reference Arm/Thales Exquisite Silver cartridge for an elegant/soothing orientation. Both analog sources are connected to JMF Audio’s PHS 7.3 phono stage.

Our latest digital source for this showroom features APL’s Galactic Reference DAC/Streamer/NAS that constantly put listeners in awe.

The unique experience here is second to none.

朱芸編：《白日之下》電影音樂導賞會

電影的配樂和主題曲所帶出之「景」是最為觸動人心，因為導演編寫恰到好處而不過於煽情，具震撼力但不浮誇。從第一段「彩橋之家」掀起序幕，直到最後姜大衛（通伯）對余香凝的勸勉獨白，鼓勵她要堅持自己的道德標準，去面對社會不公義的指責。每段樂曲帶出的幕幕情景，細緻交代出主角的情感起伏，可見朱芸編先生對故事內容及角色性格有深層次的理解。

今天他親身解說每一首樂曲背後的創意由來，那裏留一些白，那裏要放緩拍子，甚至選用什麼鋼琴去營造氣氛等，原來是要何等苦心，才能將音韻和光影匯聚成為一鼓力量開啟觀眾的心扉。他其中一的番話令我尤其深刻： “觀眾最容易記得的是戲內的角色和故事情節。相比之下，電影內的音樂是最容易被人忘記，所以我要加倍用心將重要片段，轉化成容易入腦的旋律。”

Aspiration

History is full of lessons reminding me to pick the right path to a future, albeit partially. It is because connecting the past to the future requires a dream as a goal. Then I need courage to execute and perseverance to withstand failures. I also need to trust people to work together making dreams come true.

Some of these photos were taken by my best friend, Johnathan Lam, whom I knew since Primary One at Kei Yan Primary school in Hong Kong. We went to St Paul’s College together and eventually furthered our studies together in the US.

He captured the moment when I presented the caligraphy to Lang Lang after he finished playing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No.3.

“琴聲只應天上有，人間能得幾回聞”

Under the baton of maestro JAAP van Zweden, the performance of HK Philharmonic is truly world class. I told him the symphonic power of HK Philharmonic under his leadership was phenomenal.

We had a fabulous session with Elliot Leung at Divin Lab sharing his composition journey of his seminal Metaverse Symphony No.1. He taught us how to appreciate symphonic music and shared so much in-depth music knowledge. We were so impressed and had learnt so much from him. #audioexotics #elliotleung #symphony #classicalmusic
