preface:

Long time use of earphones to listen to music will not only lead to ear fatigue, but also the high decibel sound in close proximity will have a certain impact on ear hearing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable speaker product with bass effect to replace the damage to hearing caused by earphones. Finally, a wireless product based on Bluetooth technology - handheld Bluetooth speaker was derived. Bluetooth speakers have become the mainstream speakers in the market since they became popular in 2012, and now they have become a hot speaker variety. Today's Bluetooth audio products have the main feelings, the pursuit of personalized appearance design, and the pursuit of compact and lightweight. Today, what we want to bring to everyone is a kind of audio that requires both face value and appearance - M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio.

This product is from Shenzhen Zunte Digital Co., Ltd. (JONTER+audio), which is one of the world's leading brands of Bluetooth audio. It was conceived in Shenzhen in September 2009. Since its birth, it has relied on the top design and R&D team to create the top fashion audio boutique of "fashion personality" for users. With exquisite excellent quality and distinctive personalized shape, it has launched a number of series of Bluetooth audio, quickly becoming a benchmark brand in the Bluetooth audio industry.

Most of the shapes of the Bluetooth speakers seen in daily life are square or even without edges and corners. The external structure of the audio is also limited by the shape of the internal hardware. The appearance of the M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth speakers can be said to draw on the shape of the Tang Dynasty bronze mirror - round. Let's talk about this speaker in detail.

Unpacking:

Affected by the fierce market competition, almost all products pay attention to the outer packaging. Good packaging can arouse consumers' purchase impulse and desire. M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio is also more sophisticated in terms of external packaging. The hard square paper box is printed with a M16 plan and Zunte logo on the front.

The back of the box is printed with the audio introduction in English, which roughly introduces that the M16 has a power of 5 * 2W and an impedance of 4 Ω. Now let's talk about the impedance of the speaker. Loudspeaker manufacturers around the world are producing tens of millions of speakers with different varieties and performances every day to meet the needs of the growing Hi Fi market and AV market. However, the nominal impedance of the speaker follows 4 Ω, 8 Ω and 16 Ω, 32 Ω, an international standard series. The sensitivity of the speaker is 82 ± 3dB. The sensitivity of the speaker refers to the sound pressure level generated 1m away from the axis direction of the speaker by adding an electrical signal with a rated power of 1W to the input end of the speaker. Generally, the sensitivity of active speakers is between 83db and 92db. Don't underestimate the difference of 9db. You should know that for every 3dB difference in sensitivity, the power must be doubled to get the same volume.

The effective range of Bluetooth reception is 10 meters, and the battery capacity is 2000 mAh. It takes about 3 hours to fully fill this speaker through the USB interface, and it can play for about 10 hours continuously. The stereo is a round structure, with a radius of about 9cm and a thickness of 4.9cm. This thickness can be easily put into the daily backpack, with a weight of about 500g, which is solid, light and easy to carry. The above are the basic parameters of the sound on the back of the box.

appearance:

The appearance design of M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio adopts a circular structure similar to the Tang Dynasty bronze mirror, which is made of all metal materials as a whole, and also uses CNC cutting in the corners. This design will give some visual impact.

The sound hole on the front of the stereo is wrapped with light pink linen, which is also a general treatment for sound holes. It can be said that the wrapping property is not very strong, and the gap size is inconsistent in many places. In terms of workmanship, attention should be paid to the fitting degree of edges and corners, which will affect the integrity to a certain extent.

A set of buttons are designed with black rubber pad material on the top of the audio, including on key, play/pause key, volume increase/decrease key, and call answer key. The design of these buttons can't be said to be perfect. I always feel that it is almost something. I need to use a little force to feel the sense of pressing. Compared with the M16, this is a drawback. The appearance of the keys does not play a role in embellishment, nor does it have good usability

There is a rubber foot pad directly below the audio, which is designed to cooperate with the rear bracket to prevent the audio from sliding forward and backward. However, the foot pad is loose and not well integrated with the main body. At the same time, Xiao Bian believes that some texture design should be added to the foot pad to increase friction and make the sound stand more stable.

The mellow M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio back cover is made of alloy material. The back cover has three colors, namely, vast silver, rose gold, and technical silver. What I have in my hand is rose gold. Compared with the front color, I think the color of the back cover is more pure. The logo of Zunte is engraved on the center of the whole rear cover, and some simple information of M16 (voltage output 5V/1A) is engraved on the right bottom.

At the same time, there are many concentrated jacks and card slots right below the back, which looks messy and lacks aesthetic feeling. Several holes are in a groove. The four square jacks outside the groove are bracket holes. The round ones in the groove are audio input jacks, a power supply jack, and a TF card slot. At the same time, there is also an indicator light that will turn red when the audio is charged, but will not turn on at ordinary times.

They say it has the function of answering the phone, but where is the radio hole? Xiao Bian believes that the receiving hole should be designed under the linen on the front of the stereo, so that answering the phone to the stereo can achieve better pickup effect.

connect:

The audio source input of Bluetooth audio should be transmitted by pairing with other electronic devices through Bluetooth. The whole connection process is relatively simple.

Press and hold the key of M16, and the sound will be turned on when you hear the "ding dong" prompt tone. The LED blue light embedded under the linen will keep flashing. At the same time, turn on the Bluetooth settings of mobile phones, tablets and laptops. I can find a device named JONTER M16 in my device, and click Connect. At this time, M16 will give a "ding" prompt tone.

M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio not only stays in the input of Bluetooth audio source, but also can input audio source by installing TF card and single pair single 3.5MM audio cable.

Through TF card, M16 can decode audio files in APE, MP3, WMA, WAV and other formats, which is also a relatively powerful function of this product.

Single to single audio input is also fun. It can be directly connected to the mobile phone to listen to the radio, or the audio file of the TF card in the speaker can be output to other speakers to play directly. If you are keen on playing single to single audio input/output function, it is recommended that you purchase a relatively long single to single audio cable separately.

tone quality:

The sound quality of a speaker is important, but at the same time, it should be considered to match its price. M16 metal desktop creative Bluetooth audio is acceptable in terms of sound quality performance. The connection between high and low sounds is relatively smooth, and the low sounds will not feel like other Bluetooth audio can not be played out.

When the audio is connected, turn on the Bluetooth of another device. At this time, the playback of the M16 does not seem to be affected, let alone stuck. It has strong anti-interference ability. This is better than many other brands of speaker products, and I am most satisfied with it.

When the volume of M16 is adjusted to the maximum, let it play high pitched music. There is no obvious sound breaking phenomenon, and it is relatively smooth.

Summary:

After using Zunte M16 for a period of time, I still feel it is commendable on the whole. The price of 299 yuan is a good choice for the artistic appearance. For the student party, it is cost-effective. For the square dance lovers, it is both artistic and can ensure the time for the dance. For the office workers, it can add some flavor to the boring work by placing it on the desk. At the same time, it can also relax by listening to music during the lunch break.

Advantages: unique appearance; Multiple audio source input modes; Decodable multi format audio file; It can be used as a radio; Long standby time; Easy to carry

Disadvantages: the key design is rough and the workmanship is not fine enough; Do not use while charging; The front color is lighter.
