神曲工作室令人驚訝不是它已到達境界，而是高處未算高，每次去也會發現它又已進入另一層次。正如前面大哥們已提到今次這個shape of sound session 有幾咁神，但PT仍會預告往後還會怎樣進步，好像在神曲下面加wellfloat 特製的base，upgrade 了的zanden phono，wellfloat rack 等等，到時的shape of sound 又不知會蛻變到什麼形態。
回說11Jul那天，每一段樂曲對我來説都是非常陌生。陌生並不是我之前沒聽過，而是我聽每段樂曲的感覺是非常之不同。我聽中島美嘉有很長日子，要播好她當然要上級器材，但往往也只能聞其聲而未能見其型。在神曲工作室裡，我是真正能感受到她唱歌時的型態，她想表達的情感，還有她要給聽衆的訉息，可能這便是shape of sound 其中一種意思。
The Divin Marquis is something truely special. It possess all the vital characteristics of his bigger brothers, but in a package that can fit into my listening area.
In order to further perfect the excellence of Divin Lab, I had been in serious discussion with Lee Dalby researching various options to beef up key infrastructure areas. We both came to the conclusion - the quality of wires governing the flow and diversion of electricity.
Lee had painstakingly handcrafted 30 meters of his flagship Kyoku for installation at Divin Lab. Yes I heard you - “Chris is crazy”. We aim for depth.
Your video of 李宗盛 singing 愛的代價 is breathtaking. I listened to it by headphone and passed on to my wife. She thought it was live. In fact you were playing vinyl on the Da Vinci EQ. I am seriously to know whether change of all wires to Dalby Kyoku could bring how much more incremental management? Divin Lab has been in uncharted territories in my opinion for a long while already.

首先 Stray noise 是一個全新領域，冇特別去處理亦不知其重要性。K15ex 前級放在Pranawire Annapurna 低頻的質感和彈跳力得到全面的提昇 ，畫面和色彩豐富起來 。

當天回到家中，我已急不及待要在自己的系統重播這曲「雪之華」比較一下。一如所料，雖然我的系統已算不俗，但要去到見其型的層次還是有點距離。所以唯有下次再有機會去神曲工作室再感受一下。
對，是”感受”，而不是”聽”這麼簡單。
以下是我母親在神曲工作室聽完紫釵記之後，她向晨運好友（也是跟林家聲學粤曲多年）口述感受，然後再為她所寫出的一些感受分享：
任的唱腔之所以具有很强的感染力，缘自她得天獨厚的聲綫。她以女性反串文武生，其行腔總是清爽利落，高音清麗若行雲流水，低音渾厚似空谷回蕩，極有穿透力。她的聲總是充滿清越俊逸，而不失蒼厚之感，爽朗乾淨中自有韻味綿長的特色。她能做到真正的字正腔圓，聲情並茂。她演唱的字、詞、句之間總是寸度得体，氣息飽滿。
她能把道德文化中仁、義、廉、耻的内涵不同程度地展現，讓我觀之動容，聽之貫耳。從内心到外形一直貫串到底，什麼人都能看得懂，聽得懂。我想不到音響能把任姐栩栩如生般呈現眼前。
多謝梁生的熱誠，你所做的並不是一件容易的事。尤其在疫情之下，年邁的我不停懷念過去的香港，能聽到任姐尤如翻生在前的表現，使我對明天帶有希望。
Hello MAC,
I just received the information from Chris, that you have chosen our Divin Marquis loudspeakers to be your new reference in your audio system.
Therefore I want to take the chance to welcome you in the Göbel High End Divin club.
All the best,
Oliver
