For the post-80s generation, our childhood music is mainly an episode of TV dramas, and later upgraded to a local music radio station on the radio. In junior high school, we had the first tape drive at home because of learning English. Even if the tape in our impression is pirated, it is not cheap for us as children. The power of scientific and technological development is amazing. As far as universities are concerned, MP3 has gradually replaced tape drives and CD players and become popular. With higher requirements for sound quality, MP3 players are hard pressed. As a result, there seems to be a more advanced HiFi player. In addition to listening to music, HiFi has always been very expensive. With the development of mobile phones and other devices, it is gradually possible to use mobile phones to play lossless music. With the improvement of the quality of life, the requirement of enjoying lossless and high-quality music becomes more intense. It seems that the lossless music played by mobile phones is mainly limited to personal appreciation, because the external play of mobile phones is a little poor for us. And who would like to listen to music with their mobile phones at home? So this kind of music wizard product makes the author shine. Today, it also brings you some of the author's use feelings, and we look forward to discussing it with you.

On the top of the package, because of its small size, the MATO music box adopts a hanging design, which allows the store to hang it very conveniently. This may not be a big deal for buyers, but for sellers, it can effectively save limited display space. MATO music box supports music push of IOS and Android systems. AirPlay, DLNA and QPlay are the three most common push protocols that can perfectly support. For users who like to use different music playing software, the experience is very good.

For music box products, general products seem to be an indispensable three piece set, with switching power supply for power supply and an audio output line for on-site power supply. Of course, MATO is no exception to provide these three types of services except for the host.

The power supply output of MATO is not unexpected to use the MicroUSB interface mode, which seems to have become the standard configuration of all digital products at present. In terms of audio output, the music box provides 3.5mm audio cable. For most users, this interface is good enough to meet the audio access of home speakers.

In terms of power supply, the music box uses a CE certified DC5V switching power supply, which is a very familiar accessory. Basically, mobile phones and digital products will be equipped with it. I think even if it is not provided, it is estimated that users will not lack similar alternatives.

The overall color of the music box is the current popular Tuhao gold color, and the logo of the product is printed in the middle of the product. The first time I got the music box, I felt it was so light. Basically, there is no feeling when holding it in the hand. It adopts a design similar to baking varnish, and the front looks very simple. The front panel of the box provides a red LED light to indicate the working status.

The rear side of the product is the interface part of the MATO music box. In addition to the input interface for power supply, MATO also provides the audio output port, S/PDIF optical fiber interface, which is used to connect the USB interface and reset button of the external storage device. These interfaces can basically meet everyone's daily use, but the author is surprised that this product does not provide a TF card interface, after all, TF card is the most popular storage.

The bottom of the music box provides some basic information about the box. From the material of the music box, the author thinks that it may be more general. The bottom shell is fixed by screws, and the antiskid pad is also used as the dust hole of the screws, which is also a popular use at present.

The author has a wired version of Sun Xiaosheng's speaker, which can be said to complement MATO. It just borrows MATO's USB interface as the monkey's power input. Of course, this USB is mainly used as an external USB storage device for MATO to listen to songs. We have taken advantage of it for convenience.

It looks like a good match. In fact, the main use of MATO music box is to use the unused speaker products in the user's home. Therefore, families with idle speakers can consider purchasing one to upgrade the unused speakers into smart speakers.

At present, MATO Music Box does not have a special APP. You need to input the website through wifi connection for setting. The specific access method can With reference to the instructions, in the music box setting, you can set the name of the music box when pushing, and set the connection password for the wifi of the music box to prevent others from accessing.

For music boxes, Samba sharing and DMS functions are also supported. Of course, ordinary users do not need to consider this problem. The same MATO upgrade mode is also a bit old. It only supports local upgrade and does not support online upgrade.

For the external network access mode of MATO, in addition to supporting wireless, it also supports 3G access mode. However, the author does not have a 3G USB network card, so it cannot be tested. For the USB port, you can insert a hard disk storage device to achieve functions similar to NAS. However, because there is no APP, it is impossible to insert a USB flash disk to play music through the player. Instead, it can only be played by pushing when a USB flash disk must be inserted to play music through the mobile phone. This is not humanized enough. At the same time, the sharing function does not have the function of hierarchical settings. As long as you connect, you can access the storage device. There is a possibility of data leakage, so it is not suitable to connect a private data USB device here.

MATO music box supports AirPlay, DLNA and QPlay push. As an Androclaw, the author tested the DLNA push and QPlay push functions of MATO music box with Baidu Music and QQ Music respectively. Baidu Music opens the ALNA button by default. If it does not open the ALNA button, click the DLNA icon in the upper right corner of the playback page to push it to the mato music box for music playback. The music experience is relatively good, but during the use process, the author made intermittent sounds once or twice. Of course, this may have something to do with too many mobile phone programs or the stability of the router. The overall performance is very powerful.

For those who like to use QQ music, they can use QPlay push. Select the play mode in the lower left corner. There are devices that can be pushed. After setting up, they can realize the normal play function. For HiFi, the author believes that different people have different opinions. It is better to listen to it than to force it.

Summary

The MATO HiFi music wizard can make use of the old idle speakers in the home, which is a very good function. But the author thinks that MATO should be able to further improve. I hope the second-generation MATO has its own APP. After connecting to wifi, it can play music directly without having to use the push function. First, it can liberate mobile phones, and second, it can have more abundant sound sources.
