This time, Syitren turntable is no longer just an item placed in the corner. The warm-toned wall panels, the soft-textured sofa, and the wooden grain of the Syitren turntable itself, along with the transparent tonearm, all complement each other. When the hardware of "retro lifestyle aesthetics" is integrated into the space of "classical music landmark", every detail seems to be telling: The ritualistic charm of vinyl records should be experienced in such a way, and should be implemented in such a manner.
The green film being played live is a string quartet by Shostakovich. But this is just the beginning of the "sound surprise". Among the collection brought by the film, there are both precious and rare classical vinyl records as well as vivid modern color vinyl records; and different Syitren turntables seem to hold different "decoding keys": the PARON series has a warm sound quality, precisely enveloping the delicate tremors of the string music; the KORUS series has outstanding resolution, capable of capturing the hidden details of the orchestral music.
In this VIP event, "experiencing" goes far beyond simply sitting and listening. Some people squat beside the turntable, following the staff's instructions to learn how to adjust the speed and change the stylus - it turns out that operating the vinyl record is not as "difficult to handle" as imagined; some linger in front of the vinyl display stand, attempting "blind listening" and randomly pairing records with the turntable to encounter unexpected sound combinations; there are also music enthusiasts carrying notebooks, listening while taking notes on the subtle differences in the performance of the same piece on different turntables.
For Syitren, this is precisely what we have always hoped to promote: to make "vinyl hardware" not just a decoration, but a bridge that helps everyone "understand music and enter life". And the vinyl collection in the studio and the professional setting of the concert hall precisely make this experience complete.
From "a record player" to "a live performance", our collaboration with the Vinyl Collective has never been about simply installing equipment. Instead, through the hardware as a medium, we aim to enable more people to experience the warmth and depth of "vinyl + music".
