The output voltage of the power adapter is 18V, and the DC is 3000mA, which is similar to our notebook voltage adapter. Of course, it is better not to mix them. This also means that it is a smart audio for home use, without built-in batteries, It can only be used by switching power supply through household power supply.

▼ Everything in the box is here: a shell smart audio GP2, a special power supply and a manual. The accessories are very simple.

The size of GP2 audio is 414mm * 132mm * 175mm. It uses dual four unit output and is equipped with independent bass diaphragm, stereo dual channel and independent low-frequency diaphragm, ensuring that high, medium and low frequencies go their own way.

·Performance&Experience·

▼ If you want to use the shell smart audio GP2, first we need to download and install the GEAK Audio APP with your mobile phone, and you can directly scan the QR code on the manual.

▼ After downloading, click the audio power button. GP2 has built-in voice operation instructions, which can be set according to the voice prompt. This is very user-friendly. When the audio indicator turns red, turn on the mobile phone WiFi, and select the WiFi with the name beginning with geek to connect.

▼ After connecting to WiFi, open GEAK Audio to enter the setting interface. Set according to the prompt. After setting, the audio will prompt that the network connection is successful and enter the main interface.

▼ The biggest feature of Fruit Shell Smart Audio GP2 is that it gathers a large number of music resources and can be played online without downloading. We can see the resources in the "Music Library" interface, such as Tiantiandong, Douban FM, Dragonfly Radio, Multi listening FM, Himalaya, Listening to Music Station, etc. There are 6 preset shortcut keys on the top. After clicking, you can quickly enter the response resource playing interface, which is very convenient to use. Click the button on the top right to search songs.

▼ Although the system has preset 6 shortcut keys for us, some of them may not be to your liking. You can automatically change them, enter the corresponding resource interface, click the button on the right of the title, and then select the shortcut key you want to replace.

▼ In addition to playing music resources in GEAK Audio music library, we can also support Kugou music, QQ music and NetEase Cloud music clients through DLAN, AirPlay and other protocols to further enrich our GP2 music resources. I conducted a simple test using the cool dog music of my mobile phone. I entered the playing interface of the cool dog music and selected the DLAN icon on the top left. After entering, I selected the GP2 device.

▼ Of course, the above operations can only be performed under the condition of networking. In the case of no WiFi network, we can still enjoy music by inserting a Micro SD card or a USB disk device. Click the "Media Player" option at the bottom of the "Music Library" interface, enter and find the corresponding music storage directory, then click the music file to play.

▼ The setting interface in GEAK Audio is rich in functions. Here we can view audio information, update software, modify device name, and perform some simple audio setting operations.

▼ There are two more practical small functions: alarm clock and timed shutdown. If we set timed shutdown in advance, we don't have to worry about making the audio work all night because of falling asleep. The addition of the alarm clock function makes us feel taller and taller when we get up in the morning. Interested children can try to feel woken up by the audio. Remember not to turn the audio too big.

·Summary·

The Fruit Shell Smart Audio GP2 is a main home audio with simple appearance design, beautiful sound quality, rich music and audio resources, and easy operation. After several days of experience, I specially listened to a variety of different kinds of music resources, especially the bass effect, which made me feel shocked. Through listening to radio programs, although the bass effect of this audio system is good, the voice is very real and has not been affected. And if this stereo is used outdoors, it can also be easily handled. You can take it out to dance in the square. The bass effect is strong, which will give you a very shocking feeling. Disadvantages&suggestions: The buttons on the top of this audio are relatively stiff, which is not very comfortable to press, and the feedback strength needs to be strengthened; When the stereo is turned on at the maximum volume, there will still be obvious sound vibration, which should be related to the insufficient weight of the stereo; The plastic structure in the front of the stereo can be clearly seen in the sun, which will make people feel cheap. I hope the details can be strengthened; At present, GP2 has little interaction with computers. It only supports the launch of audio devices with several software, and it is expected to expand more; At present, the TV box market is very popular. I don't know whether GP2 can achieve interaction with the box end. The effect of watching blockbusters through audio must be very impressive!
