1: Preamble
When it comes to Oriolus, there may not be many people familiar with it, but when it comes to the "old man" of Mini Audio, I believe that all the grillers know something about it. Today's evaluation brings you Oriolus, the first player product of the audio studio of the elderly, DP100. Oriolus' two earphones, Black Oriole and Grey Oriole, have been widely praised for their sound. What will be the experience of the "national brick" operated by the elderly?
2: Appearance introduction
In terms of packaging, DP100 maintains the design of Oriole. Oriolus's gilt logo is printed on the front of the gray package, a small yellow label is printed on the lower left corner, and Jaben's logo is on the top.
After opening the packing box, you can see the DP100 body, which is wrapped with foam around to prevent the equipment from being damaged during transportation.
After the DP100 is taken out, the second layer is the accessory layer, which is packed in a white paper box.
There are not many accessories for the family photo and DP100. They are equipped with a micro USB data cable, a 3.5mm pair recording cable, San Bao certificate and a leather protective sleeve.
Details of leather case:
The DP100 adopts a metal body with all black color, a 2.35-inch display screen is mounted on the front, and Oriolus DP100 is printed on the upper left corner. The lower left corner still has a small yellow label.
The bottom of the DP100 is equipped with a linear output port, coaxial/optical fiber output port, two TF card expansion slots and a micro USB interface, which is complete in terms of scalability and playability.
There are four round entity keys on the right side of DP100, which are respectively the previous key, play/pause, next key and return key. The key path is short and the feedback is clear. The key does not shake, which is worth praising. There is also a roller in the middle to operate the system. Rolling up and down can operate the light pointer. Pressing down is for confirmation, but the roller section is not obvious, and there is rebound problem, As far as the experience is concerned, it is still a bit painful. If there is no need, users are recommended to use three entity keys to operate more comfortably.
On the left side of the DP100 are the power/lock screen key, the high/low gain switch and a reset hole.
The DP100 has a 2.5mm balanced output port and a 3.5mm single ended output port on the top to meet the needs of users to adapt to various earphones. In addition, the DP100 also uses an analog volume potentiometer, with a texture design on the periphery, which has a good damping feel.
The back of the DP100 is relatively simple, and only the device model and relevant information are printed on the bottom.
Simple demonstration of DP100 system:
The DP100 uses Junzheng's JZ4760 master chip, and the system does not use the Android system, so the operation is the same as that of traditional bricks. Although a little disappointed, it is better than simple and easy to use.

3: Brief comment on audition
In this audition, the author chose Oriolus' Black Oriole to form a suit, which is currently a popular flagship plug. The Black Oriole is a four unit three division coil iron technology, with two high, one medium and one low. The audio source is FLAC files captured on the original track. The whole audition is based on the 2.5mm balanced output port of the DP100.
On the whole, the DP100 is in the middle low frequency direction. The high frequency band is not brilliant, and it can be seen that it is the place where most people start. The middle frequency is very aggressive, and it is caught by it carelessly. It can be said that it is the essence of DP100's tuning. The quality and quantity of the low frequency band are very good, and the strength and diving are both impressive. From the experience, it can be seen that the "old man" is very satisfied with the DAC of ES9018S, and the overall tuning is aimed at the place where the ES9018S is generally complained about. The DP100 has a warm hearing, smooth and thick details, and is full of "oriental style". It is a mini national brick with full flavor.
Although the DP100 body is small, its thrust is quite good. It is estimated that the single end and balance port are more than enough to drive earplugs or some big ears. The resolution of the DAC ES9018S is very good. The image is clear and hierarchical, the high frequency is not bright, it is relatively simple, and there is not much overtone. The author still likes the smooth processing, Those who know ES9018S should all know that although its quality is high, its voice is difficult to tune, and it is easy to produce digital sound, so it is often dull and tasteless. High frequency band is easy to change from sharp to sharp. Although the DP100 processing may lose some details, its flaws do not cover its flaws, and its sound is comfortable and endurable.
The performance of the DP100's mid frequency and mid high frequency is worth talking about. The mid frequency is more prominent, with high density, full flavor, thick, durable, and exquisite sound. It can catch your ears at once, but the smooth processing will not make you feel abrupt. Instantaneous and fast, dynamic and strong tension is also sufficient, coupled with excellent analytical power and vivid image sound, it is very enjoyable.
The low-frequency part also surprised the author. The quality and quantity were well controlled. The cohesion was strong and the diving was deep, and the elasticity was moderate. The combination made the overall contour of low-frequency clear. The good looseness did not make people feel sluggish. The low-frequency strength was also worth praising.
4: Summary
Although the playing time of the DP100 on the author's hands is less than 50 hours, the overall sound quality has been satisfactory. The balanced hardware collocation has guaranteed the sound quality. The solid tuning skill also makes the DP100's listening sense more suitable for Asian listening orientation. The multiple output ports also ensure the playability of the equipment. There are a few players that use ES9018S chip on the market, but few can really make good sound. The DP100 is undoubtedly one of the few. With its small size, it is undoubtedly a product worth recommending as a portable player. The price of 2980 yuan can also be user-friendly. If you are ready to buy a Hi Fi player recently, you might as well go and listen to it.
