Before starting this assessment, the first thing to say is that I have fallen in love with this kind of hearty high-frequency experience.
HIFI has always been a contradiction of metaphysics and science, but there are too many carriers and expressions in music itself, so HIFI does not represent a moving acoustic effect, but rather interprets the original emotion and style.
Leasic is an emerging domestic HIFI brand. The X8 plug has also been known to some extent. After conducting a tour, a group of fans have visited the official e-commerce. The product line has a strong DIY style. It is estimated that the team is also a lover of HIFI earphones, The T8 Taomu Balanced Headset in this evaluation is a symmetrical balanced headphone positioned at the middle and high end after the X8. The balanced design and log material represent the flagship product line in a class of brands, and I experienced the T8 and felt an incomparable auditory impact at this price.
Leasic T8 is packed in a storage box, designed with a handle and a strap buckle. The design of outdoor carrying shows that the positioning of T8 is not a product only suitable for desktop earphones. It can be seen that the designer's handling of details is also quite good, and it is suitable for going out on the street. However, the positioning is determined by positioning. Generally, when going out on the street with earphones, you will not carry a storage box with you.
The cover made of peach wood is the main feature of T8. The delicate polishing treatment makes the touch smooth. The CNC carved LOGO reveals the original texture and texture of peach wood.
In addition to the insignificant paper accessories and shoulder straps, T8 comes with two sets of earphone cables, a set of spare tuning earmuffs, and a 3.5 to 6.5mm connector. Replaceable wires are also the main features of T8.
T8 unit in balanced design adopts independent wiring design, and there is no distinction between left and right channel units. Gold plated interface is reserved at the lower end of the mahogany shell.
The head beam adopts a split design, the outer layer is a plastic hollow steel beam, and the inner beam is made of leather wrapped stereotypical cotton, with a retractable design.
This retro shape is also driven independently by the unit, and benefits from not using the head beam wiring.
The T8 unit and the head beam are connected by all aluminum metal connectors. The process is exquisite and the structure is firm, but it does not bring too much weight. The whole machine has about 350g of cable, so there is no sense of weight when wearing it.
Earmuffs are made of imported memory cotton and protein coating. There is nothing to say about this. High end earphones are made of standard materials, which are close to the ears. The closed design has a very significant sound insulation effect. The complimentary tuning earmuffs worth mentioning have a perforated design, which makes the high-frequency penetration stronger.
The unit adopts 50mm moving coil rubidium iron boron unit and is coated with titanium diaphragm. It can be imagined that T8 will have a wider and more penetrating performance in the high-frequency band.
Wire material has always been a must for HIFI players, and it is not metaphysics. The material, resistance and electromagnetic induction performance of the wire core will all affect the audible difference of the sound quality products. T8 has two sets of earphone cables, one set of standard gold plated 3.5mm connector 3-pole stereo braided headphone cable, and one set of gold plated 2.5mm 4-pole 8-core balanced headphone cable.
T8 has made a great contribution to the balanced headphone cable. It can be clearly seen that the T8 balanced headphone cable is mixed with copper silver cable. The silver cable can bring better high frequency and smoothness. It seems that T8 is going to go black in high frequency,
In addition to the gold-plated terminals, the two wires are made of pure aluminum hardware, which is high in appearance and durable.
The 3.5mm earphone cable terminal of T8 has its own thread, which can be fixed with the 6.5mm adapter cable terminal to prevent loosening. This design is very friendly to the user of the ear amplifier, and the conventional 6.5mm adapter is easy to loosen when plugging.
Units without left and right marks can be worn at will, but the terminals of the headphone cable mark the left and right channels, which is very easy to identify. The logo of the headphone cable adopts purple light engraving technology, which will not be worn and full of texture.
I still quite agree with the appearance of T8. The retro appearance and configuration, texture materials and process details are attributed to the strict material positioning of domestic hifi fever manufacturers, which makes us see a product with low price threshold but bright sound quality and appearance.
The requirements of T8 for the front end can be said to be all gold, 60 ohm impedance, all mobile terminals and professional earbuds can make good sound even with mobile phones, and the upper earbuds plus professional DAC are not ambiguous, but the sound quality performance of T8 is not all gold, with very obvious bias and style.
First of all, I am not a loyal headphone user, but rather a listening box, so I do not have a variety of mobile front ends. The front end of this experience is an A500 PRO from POPCORN HOUR in the United States. This product can be called a three habitat digital broadcast product. It has a very good reputation in the AV class, and adopts the SIGMA SMP8758 chip scheme. However, this time I will not talk about the AV part, but the HIFI part, The A500 PRO is equipped with an ES9018K2M DAC, balanced output, and LME49600 earphone. The ES9018K2M here is not the public low-voltage DAC in a mobile phone segment, but a customized DAC in which the ESS team participates in tuning. The power supply uses a customized 5ihome linear power supply.
The other device is Haman HK990 HIFI power amplifier. This power amplifier is a rare all-in-one, and the current brand will not have to introduce this kind of equipment. It has two AD1955 dacs with balanced input, optical fiber RAC and other inputs, dual channel 150w output, the commendable thing is that it also has a 6.5mm AUX interface. Although many websites can not find the ear amplifier scheme, the thrust in the past test is still good. Through the test, it is found that the T8 is still more like the front end. Although several devices, even mobile phones, can be easily pushed, the HK990 shows the sound fullness, High frequency burr sense has reached a great level, so it is the main equipment of this evaluation.
As soon as I turned on the sound, I knew that T8 is a monitor style earphone. The sound bottom is very clean and slightly thin. Although there is no low frequency diving, it has very good tension and dynamics when performing drumming.
I listened to Song Dongye's Miss Dong. Miss Dong is a folk song with a very distinctive singer's voice. T8 feels a little thin in the mid frequency part, but the grain sense of the voice is very good. However, this work has always surprised me that there is no singer breathing and mouthwatering.
Then we selected Chen Huilin's "Concerto of Love", Liu Ruoyin's "Later", and Zhuo Yiting's "My Tears Don't Lie for You" according to her listening sense of "Miss Dong". It can be said that T8 is especially suitable for the interpretation of female voices. Chen Huilin penetrates clear high pitched voice, clear dental sound, magnetic and emotional. After listening to female voices, try Ren Xianqi, Wu Bai, Zhou Huajian Some popular works of male singers such as Zhang Xinzhe have excellent analysis and full and flexible timbre. The voices of such singers are in the middle and high frequency band, especially in the performance of T8.
After listening to folk songs and popular songs, I tried the works of different styles such as The Legend Becomes Jistory and The Moonlight Night on the Spring River. T8 also showed a certain momentum in epic music, which is hard to see in closed earphones, and the interpretation of silk and bamboo string music is also very interesting. It can be said that the titanium plated diaphragm is indispensable.
Finally, two familiar music sounds, "Hotel California" and "Ferry". In fact, I don't like this song of Hotel California, but I have to say that it is very suitable for audition. The guitar solo at the beginning of the song is diffuse and elastic, the drums are well arranged, and the presence of staggered applause of musical instruments is also very good. The only thing that can be a flaw is that the separation degree is not obvious enough, and the level is slightly inadequate. The performance of the drum of the curved head of the Ferry gave me another experience. When listening to the large unit box at ordinary times, I was particularly deep in the low-frequency dive of the curved head of the Ferry, but the dive of the T8 was not deep, but it had a strong sense of strength and flexibility, which gave me a unique flavor.
Finally, the last main dish of T8 is the 2.5mm copper audio mixed balanced headphone cable with ak balanced design. The advantages of balanced design are independent grounding to avoid crosstalk, eliminate distortion, and make the sound more detailed and separated. Of course, video and audio players know that the advantages of balanced transmission still depend on the system environment, and the wire is the hard dish. The silver wire will make the high frequency brighter, At the same time, put on T8 tuning earmuffs, and use Alihe's AK100II as the front end to have a masochistic listening experience.
Readers who see this should understand the listening sense ahead. T8 tuning style is excellent in high frequency, good in dynamic, elastic and tensive. What's worse is that the separation of instruments is not obvious enough, the timbre is thin, and the diving is not deep enough. Of course, real HIFI users should also understand that tuning is an art of choice, especially on headphones. Correct equipment matching should match the correct theme, So at the end of my listening experience, I chose VITAS's The Cane's Cry And Opera 2. Of course, I have always kept a distance from this Russian teacher Gong Linna. Of course, I have seen his works for many times. However, my personal preference for boxes and earphones before is that they are medium, low frequency, and sound field oriented. I have never felt it on the equipment that interprets extremely high frequency, and the tuning style of T8 gave me the idea, Facts have proved that my choice overturned the previous impression of these two works.
First of all, when T8 interprets singers with high and thin voice lines such as Lin Zhixuan and Zhang Xinzhe, you will never feel that the timbre of T8 is too thin, so in the first song of The Cane's Cry and Opera 2, the voice of VITAS has a fascinating graininess, bright timbre without losing details, especially The Cane's Cry In the climax, the high pitched voice gradually rises from low to high. The rich level transition makes people unable to stop. What's more, Opera 2, the sound of the dolphin, makes my hair stand up behind me instantly. The high frequency of piercing the soul makes people's scalp numb without distortion and hair pricks. The whole song is over, and the palm of my hand has slightly sweated, It can be said that besides playing with the chest of the extremely low frequency hammer in AV, for the first time, the low-end audio makes my body reflect physical induction, and I can't help but start the infinite cycle mode.
Summary:
First of all, the Leasic (Reyaksi) Reyaksi T8 Taomu Balanced Headset is a closed headphone with a very distinctive tuning style. It is suitable for popular and classical earphones. The voice line is thin. The interpretation of magnetic male and female voices is very accurate and fascinating. Although the low frequency is not deep, it has a great sense of strength and elasticity, and the sound field is wide and tensive, Therefore, it can express conventional music themes very well. It may not be very suitable for rock and percussion music. However, after trying electronic music, it has an unexpected effect. The most irresistible thing is the high frequency that penetrates the scalp and pierces the soul, which makes people unable to resist self abuse 3 or 5 times a day.
In terms of appearance, we can say that there is no other requirement for the retro shape, texture and exquisite workmanship. Of course, the premise is that we don't want to be bright and beautiful like beats, but for my low-key luxury, we need to look back when we go out.
In terms of price, the lowest level of crowd funding for Leasic (Reyaksi) Reyaksi T8 Taomu balanced earphones is only 1280 yuan. Although there is no 2.5mm balanced earphone cable, I can't tell you how cost-effective it is for those who don't play with earphones very much. At least this price can stimulate your scalp. Those who are interested can go to JD to participate in the crowd funding experience.
Finally, if you see Leasic (Reyaksi) Reyaksi's tour audition on the way to shopping that day, I strongly suggest you listen to The Cane's Cry and Opera 2, and experience the sound of white hair sweat!
