Zeng Dejun, Elvis Presley, and solid wood speakers, these three words sound very exciting to the first ear of any geek player who likes speaker equipment. In 2014, the first generation Elvis Presley speakers were launched on JD crowdfunding. At that time, I was not so obsessed with digital products. The price of more than 2000 yuan deterred ordinary consumers, such as me, and it was destined to be the plaything of a few digital enthusiasts.
From the first generation of products, such as Elvis Presley 2 Collection Radio and Elvis Presley 3 Fashion Radio, we have seen the emotional expression of craftsmanship spirit in the era of digital technology from each generation of Elvis Presley products. The wood texture, manual polishing and originality can be seen in Zeng Dejun's and Elvis Presley's products.
The arrival of the little prince also continues the design style of Elvis Presley's second-generation products, and the appearance looks the same.
Now think about it, wood and music should be a pair. You can see from the western violin and ancient Chinese zither that music and wood are organically integrated throughout the era, so that when I saw Elvis Presley's first generation products, I thought that the speakers should be like this, but how many people tried to do it before Elvis Presley. This is also what I think we should write about "speakers" rather than "sound". IMAX in cinemas can be called sound, but Elvis Presley and other small music carrier equipment are most suitable to be called "speakers".
Last year, I was also impressed by a solid wood speaker. Freeson was praised by many people for its excellent appearance design and solid music experience. But looking back, what other products in today's market speakers can impress you with their excellent appearance?

Now Elvis Presley and the trend of "solid wood speakers" have swept through JD crowdfunding again, and in just a few days, both popularity and funds have been well received. I will never miss Elvis Presley 1, 2 and 3 this time. Thank Lei Feng for giving me this valuable experience on the trial platform. I will do my best.
I don't know how many people like me still keep the radio of my parents' time. Although it is no longer available, it is still regarded as a treasure by me and buried in my heart. It is also a witness of the old century. It is much older than us. Elvis Presley wants to use simple design to help us find such a relationship.
▼ The simplicity of packaging can't be simplified any more. We just use ordinary express boxes to pack, and there is no product text on the appearance. For the sake of large crowdfunding volume and more than 300 yuan of goods, I forgive you. I hope the "Little Prince" will not disappoint me any more. Open the package, the black buffer cotton, the little prince's body, conversion line, speakers and accessories are all available. This is the page of the instruction manual that once again carries out the style of the simple music to the end, good and good. I don't care about these details, as long as the "little prince" doesn't disappoint me. (The packing box and instruction paper are not shown above, which is really eye-catching.)
At the first sight of the little prince, I felt that the focus of the name of the "little prince" was not "prince" but "small". The size of 92 X 65 X 56mm was so small compared with the first three generations of products of its uncle generation. It was not surprising to hold it in the palm of your hand and put it in your pants pocket. The price of 389 is nothing more than a bicycle. Feeling is worth it.
If you own Elvis Presley 2, you will be familiar with the appearance of this little prince. It seems that the little prince is basically the condensed version of Elvis Presley 2. In this regard, Zeng Dejun It has been indicated that Elvis mini is a Bluetooth speaker with Elvis 2 appearance designed to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Elvis Radio, named Q Cat. Elvis Presley mini, Q cat? Well, they are not as friendly as the little prince.
The following is the little prince's e-passport. Why is it called a passport? The ID card is suitable.
This time I got the little prince with walnut material and color sense. Other crowdfunding versions include:
Rosewood: dipped red.
Mahogany: Maroon.
Cherry wood: cream yellow.
Maple: Teak yellow.
I prefer maple and cherry wood in appearance. At least the color is bright, which is more pleasing to the eye. The other three are much darker, don't you think?
The wooden fuselage is really different for people who often touch metal and glass. The color is dull, and the sound of tapping is like skimming on water. The temperature is not like the cold ice of metal and glass. It is a little emotional. Because it is made of solid wood, the original scratch and concave seam of walnut on the speaker looks so real, just like touching a scarred heart.
The five sides of the speaker are wrapped in walnut, and the top is slightly curved. The straight grooves running through the five sides of the body make it look less monotonous. On the right side of the front is the FM knob: yellow plastic, radio frequency numbers, and red pointers let you immerse into the quaint and nostalgic taste of your grandparents' home. left The five sound holes above the waist line give consideration to the harmony of composition and the beauty of acoustics, and the taste remains. Below the bottom is the volume knob, working mode selection knob and working indicator. And meticulous The Elvis logo is engraved with words, which is just right. I would be very surprised if it was simply written.
Four plastic feet on the bottom, with proper size, Anti slip stability can also effectively absorb unbalanced vibration. this It is also the hiding place of screws.
Behind the little prince is also a text introduction related to the product, as well as the USB/AUX interface. The internal components are embedded design, which makes the front of the little prince look more integrated.
The continuation of Elvis Presley 2's design in appearance makes it not so amazing and special. In addition, the unique material always feels that it is a silence that has been forgotten for more than 20 years and has been dusted and plugged in again. But when you open it, you can hear the unique sound and taste from the 1970s and 1980s.
▼ When the knob is turned to FM, the flesh yellow light of the FM knob lights up. When the channel with signal is reached, the indicator light turns green. At this time, you just put on a cup of coffee, pick up an unfinished book, and enjoy the ease of the afternoon.
Does the green LED look like a cat's eye at night?
The "Zizi" sound of Little Prince FM is really its unique label, which is the silence and explosion with temperature. This "Zizi" sound also reminds me of my high school days. There is no TV, no smart phone, and no Internet. The only thing that accompanies me every night of overnight study is the radio waves in my mobile phone. A few years later, I hardly heard the radio with my smartphone, so that when I heard the "Zizi" sound from the little prince, I was filled with emotion. Now I think it is a rare enjoyment to listen to radio waves at night sometimes.
I remember that some time ago, Xiaomi, a department store, launched an online radio, and used WIFI to make the radio app on the mobile phone into a meaningless and featureless product. For this so-called radio, there is no battery or antenna. Forget it. I don't want to comment on the products of department stores. Just have a look.
Turn the knob to the Bluetooth position, and also turn on the Bluetooth pairing in your mobile phone. You can hear the little prince sing the song you once cycled in the headset. I wonder why I can hear the same "Zizi" sound as FM when playing music with Bluetooth. I wanted to comment on its sound quality, but it seems unnecessary.
What I want to say here is that I read the experience article of the little prince written by someone, which made me extremely embarrassed. They will use their sensitive ears to compare the sound quality of the little prince with parameters and auditory evaluation. I really don't know what characteristics can you hear about the little prince from the original sound quality of metaphysics and the little prince's "Zizi" sound? If it is a speaker product worth more than 2000 yuan, you can listen to the comments. It's OK, but you think a little about the little prince who is more than 300 and make more pretentious comments. It's like having to do hairdressing for a usually unkempt person. It's meaningless and extremely pretentious. Seriously, for this 300 yuan "rich second generation" money circling product, you can know where the level is without listening.
The company of Bihu and the little prince are exquisite products. No, they are industrial works of art.
Most of the time, we have seen the AUX playing mode in the car. Insert the conversion cable into the phone and insert the little prince into the phone to get the same playing effect as Bluetooth, saving the time to open the paired Bluetooth. But why don't I choose the headset. Therefore, I think the AUX port is of little practical significance. It can be used in a few occasions, but it is better to have it than not.
The 1000mAh battery the little prince brought with him is really big, which means that when returning to nature in the mountains, he will not be bored with it and mobile power.
The little prince has his own unique sound box powered by mobile power. The indicator light on the back tells you that it is not time to recharge. What is the rectangular hole on the right side of the back and what is it used for? Please let us know.
Summary
If it were not for the influence of the previous three generations of products, I would not associate the little prince with "feelings", and its ordinary workmanship could not let me feel the existence of craftsman spirit. Fortunately, the solid wood material has more or less added points.
I have always been unwilling to make any comments on emotion products. For example, if I were asked to comment on Smartisan, as Luo Fen, I would not open my mouth because it would hurt me to complain about a master's work. But I still have to express my position for this little prince: no sound quality, no volume, just feelings and feelings. So I still think the little prince has some elements of making money while it is hot. But for ordinary consumers, this is an opportunity to contact feelings works at a low cost, Cheap feelings are also more pleasant than crude ones.
I am not willing to give any suggestions or praise for such a product that abandons the appearance of metal and glass and returns to natural products, because people with craftsmanship spirit are stubborn, and Elvis products are in Zeng Dejun's eyes I miss children in my heart. How can I not be careful and attentive. There is no denying that the little prince's energy in making a breakthrough is due to the previous three generations of products. I am very excited to get the design appearance of Elvis 2 at an extremely low price. I can only look forward to the next generation of Elvis products. In the world of speakers, only Elvis Presley and Good Voice can live up to it.
I hope to bring a cup of coffee, hold an unfinished book, open the little prince in each quiet afternoon, and let them decorate your life and small quality.
