⭐ 活動簡介 | About the Event
當CD和數位音響在40年前問世時，許多人都認為，笨重、老氣而「不精準」的黑膠終將被歷史的洪流所淘汰。
確實，在那個Walkman和iPod先後引領風騷的年代，黑膠和類比音響曾近乎消失於大眾消費市場，成為極少數音響發燒友的私藏。誰又能想到，這種麻煩而老派的玩意兒，會在這種一味求快的速食年代重新復活？
十幾年前，許多追求生活品質和儀式感的文青與樂迷忽然轉過身，發掘出塵土封存的記憶，掀起了黑膠復興潮——起始於歐美，再慢慢擴散到包括馬來西亞在內的亞洲諸國。這些類比音樂的玩家們發現，那個親手把唱片放進唱盤後，還要調校針壓、抗滑、VTA等各種參數的全手動過程，充滿了各種學問和樂趣。
所以，今晚就讓我們來聊聊黑膠和類比音樂吧！
We all thought vinyl records would be abandoned by the new technology when CD and digital audio were introduced in the 1980s. Indeed, Walkman and iPod have dominated the consumer market for decades, while analog devices are struggling to survive in the niche audiophiles market.
Who knows—when the decline of physical albums seems unavoidable, analog audio has started to bounce back and keep thriving in the past decade. The pace of life is increasing with technological advancements, but we also realized that the convenience of playing digital music sometimes might also eliminate its fun. Although adjusting the levels of tracking force, anti-skate and VTA are so troublesome, the pleasure of fine-tuning an analog system is still unique and irreplaceable!
不管你是黑膠迷還是串流掛，都歡迎來和我們一起「吹水」。放心，這既不是什麼黑膠玄學洗腦大會，也不是什麼科學數據理工知識掉書袋大賽，更不是什麼音響推銷活動……就只是純粹聊聊天，一起聽音樂，一起深入淺出地分享黑膠和類比音樂的好玩之處。
So, let’s talk about how fun it is tonight!
No worries, we will not brainwash you with complicated theories, pseudoscience, or selling analog playback devices during the event. It’s just a sharing session about good music. Everyone is welcome to attend, whether you're just a beginner or expert, a believer in analog or digital audio.

⭐ 分享人簡介 / About the Speaker
分享人Christopher Tsai來自台灣，是一位在當地小有名氣的類比音響玩家，同時也擅於音響與樂器的維修，甚至電路/機構部分重新設計。他也曾在美國受高等教育並長時間接觸當地的音樂音響社群，對台美兩地玩家的文化差異頗有心得。
至於他為什麼會千里迢迢來到馬來西亞分享黑膠？誒……這就得從他愛上了一個馬來西亞女孩，以至於在婚後成為了半個馬來西亞人說起啦。因為工作的緣故，他常常往返台馬兩地，也得以近距離觀察台灣、美國、馬來西亞的音樂生態。他發現本地的年輕樂迷似乎大部分仍是串流派，深入玩類比器材的人口相對有限，於是決定前來傳教……啊不，前來分享自己多年來玩賞黑膠、CD和串流的經驗與心得，並且和馬來西亞的樂迷和發燒友們互相交流。
Christopher Tsai—the speaker—is an analog audio enthusiast and maintenance technician, or should I say designer, from Taiwan. He had blended into the US Hifi community for years when he received higher education there. Hence he is also familiar with the cultural difference between US and Taiwan’s audiophiles.
Then, why Malaysia now? The story began with a girl he met and fell in love with—she is a Malaysian. After getting married, he placed himself in a job that required him to travel between Taiwan and Malaysia. Therefore, he is very interested in getting in touch with you guys and learning more about the Hifi community in Malaysia—including the young head-fi generation who primarily embark upon this hobby accompanied by digital audio equipment and music streaming services.
雖說這只是一場聊天吹水無壓力的分享會，但Chris的準備工作卻仍然做得認真確實。不僅寫了好幾版的雙語內容大綱，還親自扛了重達30公斤的個人精選黑膠（估計有上百張吧）飛到馬來西亞——內容海納百川，從正規大編制古典樂、古典吉他、全本歌劇、聲樂小品到美國經典歌手Andy Willams和Johnny Mathis，甚至還有台灣歌手鄧麗君的全新黑膠……而且，每張黑膠都是他親手用超音波洗碟機處理後才帶過來的喲，可說是誠意十足。
在分享會結束後，我們也會有個短暫的「Chris私藏黑膠小市集」，販售上述黑膠碟。各位膠迷千萬別走寶喲！
Even though it’s just a sharing session, Chris has put much effort into it. He has selected over a hundred pieces of vinyl records, weighed about 30kg, cleaned them one by one via an ultrasound washing machine, and will bring over all of them to Malaysia on this trip! His private collection contains multiple genres, including symphony, concerto, classical guitar, opera, lieder, folk music, and all-time pop songs such as Andy Williams and Johnny Mathis, not to mention a 100% new and sealed Teresa Teng’s album!
We will hold a mini-market to display and sell Chris’s collection after the sharing session. Don’t miss the chance to grab it home and begin your journey of analog audio!
