The way for people who understand audio and those who do not understand audio to choose speakers is probably to first look at the parameters, then listen to the sound quality, and then look at the price, and finally win and enjoy. I don't belong to the industry. I have different opinions on buying speakers. Look at the speakers in a simple and crude way (for example, do not pay attention to parameters, only buy the best within the budget), and play your favorite music to comfort your life.
Simple: Do not use complicated HiFi fever equipment, do not listen to loud music mobile phones, and do not use passive speakers that are hard spoken by tens of thousands of guests. In this way, the desktop USB party will pick up the active speakers that will be used in the city.
Well, after the selection of active speakers, the second problem is how to select active speakers from tens to tens of thousands. Of course, buy the best within the budget, so， How to choose the 2500 yuan active speakers? Let's take a look at this dish, "Sound Engine A5+".
Baidu encyclopedia porter: The R&D team of Songqing has been committed to developing and producing professional audio equipment and related electronic products for companies including Escient, Harman/Kardon, Gibson, Alesis, Apple, etc. After 36 years of technical accumulation, in 2002, they decided to establish their own professional audio company and launch Audioengine brand products.
Great, my brother! Even if we don't look at the sound engine to develop and produce audio equipment for various companies, we also look at the technology accumulation years of others. 36 years, if we pick up the existing audio equipment brands with names, we can catch up with the sound engine in the audio technology accumulation.
Look again: In February 2006, Sound Engine launched AudioEngine 5 (Sound Engine A5) series audio in San Francisco on the west coast of the United States, and in October 2011, Sound Engine launched A5+advanced active speaker system.
Five years has pushed a product to a new height. Until now, five years later, we can still buy an active speaker that is still popular today. As a kind of popular electricity, I am ashamed to say that it is a classic after a decade. Buying brands and their predecessors is the focus I give you, so there is a cost performance ratio.
After the previous article, I started to officially talk about my personal use experience of the big guy I moved back to the sixth floor from the property panting -- the voice engine A5+active speaker.
Note: The content of this article is purely personal, not to criticize, not to mislead, not to blow, not to blacken, and patiently accept correction if there is any mistake.
Open the package, and there are various connecting wires on the buffer bracket. After removing them, there are two dice wrapped in cloth. Here we use black and white color to illustrate the bitter process of the thieves carrying these two dice from the property to the sixth floor. To be honest, a piece of plain cloth package can not play any cushioning role in order to prevent dust. All the weight is borne by the cushioning materials, including the chassis itself. The square design can effectively ensure that transportation will not be damaged.
Take off the mask, the appearance is regular, there is no lively design elements, nor exaggerated foreign style, giving people a clear view, which intuitively tells you that it is suitable for all people of all ages and families. The front is easy to understand. The upper part is the eyebrow, and the lower part is the eye... The eyebrow uses a 20mm silk membrane dome tweeter, and the eye is a 5-inch Kevlar bass unit. The simulated real bass effect is very solid, and this 5-inch horn is very useful.
On the surface, the two 5-inch loudspeakers are made of surface Kevlar subwoofers with full texture. The biggest characteristic of Kevlar fiber is permanent heat resistance and flame retardancy, permanent anti-static property, permanent resistance to acid, alkali and organic solvent erosion. Not only that, it has high strength, high wear resistance, high tear resistance, and the burning cloth surface enhances the sealing performance, and does not produce toxic gas in case of fire. It is often used on military supplies such as bulletproof vests of tanks and armored vehicles. This magic weapon can greatly increase their life span. This money is also implemented, which is very good.
The one on the right is much heavier than the one on the left. The one on the left is 4.4kg, and the one on the right is 7kg. It is full of content.
The lower left corner is the power indicator and the remote control induction receiver, and the lower right corner knob is the manual volume adjustment knob. The special thing is that this knob is infinitely circular, just like the volume button on the Mac, the volume has been maximized, but you can still press it because it is an unlimited button, and the maximum and minimum limits of the volume are software. This button can also be pressed. When playing, long press to sleep, short press to continue playing. Old appliances with knobs are afraid of being easily damaged when they are turned to the end. The small design of A5+knobs improves the experience, which is commendable.
The rear seems to understand where the money is spent! The good news for obsessive-compulsive patients is that the heat sink that makes people climax is undoubtedly the highlight of the whole speaker. I can't help but press a few more, which is worthy of the shutter.
The following interfaces are shown in a tile diagram, which will be explained in detail later. At another look at the big eyes, I love the texture of the Kevlar material. For the first time, I know that the Kevlar is on the back cover of the BlackBerry Q10. Of course, it is not a real Kevlar. The appearance alone is very scientific. Not only young people like it, but older people will not reject the texture of this surface material.
After struggling to hold it well and lie down, I saw other things except the foot pad, which was too familiar. It can be clamped on the tripod to force installation. For users with insufficient desktop, the tripod is a good solution, which can adjust the height freely and avoid resonance. The instructions indicate that wall hanging and top hanging support cannot be carried out at a single point, and do not die (I said the five words in this book).
Accessories. Line, various lines, and a remote control.
It is also the connection between the audio input2/Variable output cable and the two speakers. Note that the connector has two colors.
There is also an Auto input cable for connecting audio source devices, such as mobile phones and computers. The power cord is needless to say, but the hole position cannot be used for the magic square socket, which is a little pity.
Wireless remote control, love of lazy cancer patients, a lot of love! I just want to listen to Xiaoyin medicine happily and sleep on the couch. The layout is simple. The whole speaker feels like it can be used when it is picked up.
After describing the general appearance, look at the functions of each socket.
From top to bottom, the input on the top is connected to your mobile computer login device, and the USB beside it can be used to charge the device. It cannot be used as a data transmission and external sound card alone. The input connection is shown in the figure.
The red and white interface RCA audio input and output can be used by the users who need it.
Then go down and talk about the two output knobs. Since the left speaker of the acoustic engine A5+is equipped with a power amplifier, the two metal heads are high-quality and high fidelity five way gold plated connectors, which can be connected to large-diameter high fidelity wire, or 4mm standard plug, that is, banana plug. Insert and lock the connection bare wire attached with the box as shown in the figure. Similarly, the sub box prompts again that the two colors of this wire are different, and the connection can be distinguished by black and red. The connection is shown in the figure.
For the auxiliary box, connect the connecting wire with the main box according to the same positive and negative poles, and pay attention to the position of the black and red knobs.
Next is the power switch. The red slider indicates that the chassis supports 110V/220V wide range voltage selection, and the black round one is a fuse.
The bottom is the power interface, as shown in the figure.
Serve. Fortunately, the baby's table is large enough to hold them. At this time, there is no connection cable. The cable is dropped to show the cleanness of the table. The most annoying thing is the cable, so the keyboard and mouse are all Bluetooth. The speaker can't have both~
Taking advantage of the popularity of Westworld, download it quickly. It seems that the feeling of using the sound engine A5+to watch the play is quite strong. With the help of the silk film tweeter unit, the roar and gunshot sound in the play are retained and restored, which is very real and not intended to please the ear.
Finally, before the National Day, the high-definition download viewing resources of Big Fish Crabapple were released. I almost watched the early shooting tutorial of Big Fish Crabapple, and then listened to my friends say that the plot of the film was really not flattering, so it would be good to wait for the download resources to come out and see about photography. Sound Engine A5+performed the film's haste, musical instruments, and calm water very well, making people immersed in the sound source, Although the plot of the film is not very good, the music given by the Japanese is quite good. I can't say it's all due to the sound box, but the excellent A5+really gives me a lot of points for watching, which really makes me feel like I can't go back.
Personal auditory evaluation
Tri frequency distribution: the mid frequency is slightly more prominent, and the tuning style is more American. After all, the voice engine has a high reputation in Europe and the United States. The voice part is more pleasing, I like it personally.
Low frequency: A5+low frequency is moderate and not messy. Listening to epic music is very powerful, with obvious priorities. Recently, I have listened to more epic music, and the low frequency performance is good after listening to the whole song list.
Intermediate frequency: The ethereal music performs well. The ethereal artistic conception and transparency sound clear, thick and thin, orderly, and straight to the heart. The voice is poisonous enough. The handling of voice is very good, warm and transparent.
High frequency: Usually, there are not many high-frequency sounds. There are only a few songs along the way. The sound engine A5+is clear and not harsh. There are still comfortable brightness and details.
Sound field: This price is the most expensive speaker I have ever used.. So I used to use the speaker in every way. Gangzhen, R&B、 Pop music, epic music and pure rhythmic music can't find fault. They have to find fault, that is, listening to the songs of Canon and Kushirang is so poor that they lose their feeling. I don't say much about the analytical power. I have used the best one. The instrument is not picky in expressing the voice.
The speaker is still in the stage of warming up, and the sound quality should be improved a lot when it is turned on. The current effect has satisfied me, and the rest is left to time.
Summary
The sound engine A5+, priced at 2500 yuan, is worthy of being a high-quality product in terms of appearance, workmanship and sound quality. The products made by the 36 year technology accumulation team can not only stand the test of time, but also do a good job in a down-to-earth manner. Music occupies an important part of my life, but when I return to home, playing my favorite music on the A5+console soothes my soul, and the quality of life has improved in a straight line, which is much better than buying a mobile phone at the same price. Audio equipment not only bridges listeners and songs, but also can not describe the shocking effect of watching movies at home. To feel it, it will give you a satisfactory experience.
