With the widespread popularity of smart phones, the access to music is so easy and convenient. On the bus and in the subway, you will find that the relationship between mobile phones and music seems inseparable. In the era of rapid development of technology, will anyone still use music players, a niche product? In the world of music, in addition to headphones and speakers, music players are still used more frequently.

As a mountain spirit with many years of domestic HiFI speakers attainments, it has its own brand positioning, and has also released many classic audio works. As a new product in 2016, the Mountain Spirit M1 player is now launching a music package with 1MORE. On the one hand, Shanling and 1 MORE are both experts in domestic audio, which adds weight to the supporting music equipment provided by music enthusiasts. On the other hand, the marketing method of strong combination also makes the purchase price more favorable. What kind of spark can be created between the Mountain Soul M1 music player and the 1MORE iBFree Bluetooth headset? Please listen to the following details.

Shanling M1 music player

The Mountain Spirit M1, which has played for more than ten days, is certainly not a real fever product as a music fever. It can be used as a backup to listen to songs every day. The entry-level music player has its own advantages, small size, sophisticated design, easy operation and popular audition. These characteristics make Mountain Spirit M1 have its own market position.

Black, white and blue are three colors, but black is more atmospheric and calm, just as I love black mobile phones. More fashionable. Whether it's the black outer package, the inner liner, or the whole body, the black is more integrated and the front screen and back screen are set off against each other.

The 60g Shanling M1 has obvious advantages in weight and volume, with an appearance size of 60mm × 50mm × 12.8mm. As a portable player, it is really much lighter to carry sports equipment when going out. This compact design is very small, which is more practical than the essence of listening to music for many BRICS.

Surprisingly, such a small player uses 2.5D glass, which improves the overall visual effect of the screen and the body, and is used to the 2.5D glass screen used on most smart phones. Although Shanling M1 is not a touch screen operation, the overall screen is clear and comfortable, and the edges are fine and smooth. It has a good experience in both visual and overall grip. Although the resolution of the 2.35-inch TFT HD display is only 360 * 400, it is clear enough for a small music player.

The black panel on the back gives a brief introduction to Shanling M1. The overall material is very smooth, and you should be careful to scratch in daily use. The manufacturer carefully designed it. In order to let the little guy better care, they gave you two sets of front and back masks to make you pay more attention to the use of the player.

Because of non touch screen operation, physical keys are indispensable. On the left side there are keys for returning, previous song and next song, and on the right side there is a single power key. The overall key is relatively small, and the crisp sound bounce effect is also very flexible when pressed with moderate force.

This knob on the back is my favorite. I like the fast operation brought by this kind of gear. This kind of back and forth selection improves the process a lot. It is easy to press as a confirmation option. Everyday boredom will be played and scrolled on the hand. The service life given by the official is longer. The knob on the song playing interface or lock screen interface also plays a role in adjusting the volume.

Another surprise is that the USB Type-C interface is used with Shanling M1, which guarantees the aesthetic feeling of symmetrical design at the bottom on the one hand; On the other hand, charging and data transmission are very good. USB two-way transmission, connecting the computer and mobile phone as an external decoding ear amplifier.

The player itself does not have built-in storage, and needs additional TF insertion. It supports 256GB storage at most. It is large for lossless music, but I don't think it is necessary to use a large memory card every day. A space of tens to hundreds of songs is enough.

1MORE iBFree Bluetooth headset

Many people should be familiar with Wanmo 1MORE, which belongs to Xiaomi Ecological Chain and has produced many earphones. Ring iron, movable iron, Bluetooth and headwear have many good works; In addition, the cooperation with Jay Chou naturally improved its popularity in China. For me, millet noodles, of course, can't be clearer.

As a portable Bluetooth headset, the iBFree is inexpensive and light in quality. It works well outdoors. The overall appearance of the entry-level headset still inherits the forgotten style.

The black is more grand and fashionable, which is consistent with the mountain spirit M1. The horn type design is designed to better fix the earphone, especially in the process of movement, which is not easy to fall off, so it can be replaced by itself to achieve comfortable wearing.

The 14g small guy conforms to the small posture of outdoor wear, and the metal CD texture light on the back is dazzling.

The earphone also has the function of remote control, which can freely adjust the volume without delay in the process of listening to music. Two hours of charging can guarantee eight hours of music playing.

The specific earphone is very comfortable to wear. Whether it is connected to the phone or the player, the listening effect is good.

Audition experience

The decoding chip of Shanling M1 uses AKM's AKM4452, which supports up to 192kHz - 24bit PCM format audio, and also supports the hard solutions of DSD64 and DSD128. In addition, with the ear amplifier chip of the MAX97220, the player M1, which costs less than 1000 yuan, has its own powerful hardware configuration, and has certain advantages among mini players.

At the beginning, I thought the matching earphones were wired, and it also took a little effort to use Bluetooth wireless earphones for package sales. Thanks to their support of Apt-X protocol, it is almost possible to achieve lossless transmission through Bluetooth transmission. It is difficult to achieve lossless audio playback on traditional Bluetooth speakers and Bluetooth headsets. Apt-X coding format solves the problem of audio quality and delay, improves the way of Bluetooth audio quality transmission, and optimizes the original SBC and other formats in encoding and decoding.

The iBFree headset can quickly and easily match with Shanling M1 through Bluetooth. M1 will automatically identify whether the connected headset supports Apte-X protocol. If it supports Apte-X protocol, the notification bar on the player will display "A" logo, if not, it will display "S" logo. After listening to the iBFree, the wearing effect is still relatively comfortable. As for the sound quality effect, I found that it is not much different from the ordinary portable Bluetooth headset after listening to the comparison. I don't know why the sound on the headset is very high even if the volume of the player is turned up to the maximum.

The sparks between the two are more interesting, and I think it is more suitable for listening to pop music. In terms of voice, the analysis is relatively clear, and the clean sound feels three-dimensional. Midrange is the most satisfactory part. The analytical effect is very thorough. When listening to some boys singing, it is comfortable but not harsh. The voice is loud and mixed without breaking. The diving ability of the bass segment is very ordinary. As a sports headset, it is suitable for listening to some music with strong rhythm. It is not only cheerful but also full of passion. The excitement brought by running makes the voice more clear.

After all, the Mountain Soul M1 player and iBFree Bluetooth headset are used together as a sports suit, but I think that ordinary music players are still suitable for debugging and calibration with wired headphones. Although the plugs in the hands of the author are not very high-end, there are still many products of the same 1MORE family. It has the good sound earphones of the year before last and the Xiaomi headphone. After listening, it was found that the wired earphones are more direct in conveying the essence of sound, more suitable for ear burning. The sound is played larger but not broken, the voice is analyzed more thoroughly, and the clear and clean earphones are still suitable for listening to popular music.

Experience summary

The music set created by strong cooperation for sports is not only commendable in terms of marketing, but also eliminates the need to wear mobile phones with such earphones and players. The process of sports is characterized by leisure and freedom. The mini Shanling M1 is more suitable for outdoor use. For the pursuit of HiFi sound quality, the lossless playback effect is better. The lightweight and convenient Bluetooth headset also brings better adjustment to the movement process. As an entry-level music player, the requirements cannot be too high. M1 has excellent performance in terms of sound quality, price advantage, hard understanding of DSD, and exquisite appearance. It is suitable for novices to listen slowly. Of course, 1MORE iBFree continues the clear voice of Wanmo. The travel of the music suit brings you physical and mental pleasure, and you need to wear the music suit to listen to it.
