As a video and audio product, TV is better than the first picture quality (because it is the first? Because the eyes are in front, and the ears are behind), to meet the needs of the eyes. But only the picture quality is good, the ear will not do it, regardless of its feelings. Therefore, the importance of sound quality becomes more and more prominent. Although the sound quality of TV products is getting better and better now, whether you are a Harman Kardon certification or a JBL certification, you can't deny that speakers that are subject to volume and power, and that are equipped with standard TV speakers are called “horns†at most. Can speak out. Now that TVs that are positioned slightly taller are either split-body designs, or are they equipped with a semi-naked sound unit, why? It is to increase the size of the speakers and bring about better sound quality. This includes the millet TV home theater version we know, LeTV split TV, Sharp split TV, TCL XESS X1 and so on. Before the domestic brand Soundbar has been relatively small, probably because a few years ago this market is not yet mature, the user has not so high demand, then sold well mainly 5.1 home theater, the market brands include Philips, JBL, Bose , The first two brands, there are some cheap products, Bose is more expensive, so fewer people buy. A few years ago, the soundbar had a relatively small selection space, and the price of the main 1000 to 2,000 yuan product was not worth much. According to the advice provided by the music king coffee Wang Le, the sound of 2000 TV theaters was not as good as the Bose C5. This may also be the main reason why Soundbar is not popular. A friend recently asked me if I could buy the Soundbar for 1000 price points. I saw that Edifier started the S series Soundbar. As a loyal user for many years, I recommended it to my friends and I passed along to do a comparative test. (Thank you for your courage to be the dedication of the mouse. The truth is: I Jingdong Diamond member returns a no-cost status. If I am not satisfied, I will return it directly.) Edifier S50 soundbar in Jingdong price is 1298 yuan, from the price positioning still belongs to the entry product (speaker is a bottomless ah), the product is priced lower than the millet TV speakers 1999 yuan and LeTV tyrants 1799 yuan price. Rambler has always been the positioning of the people. Edifier S50 Hi-Res Professional Wooden 2.0 Channel TV Speaker Home Theater Wireless Bluetooth Echo Wall SOUNDBAR1298 元京东 To buy Letv TV Letv Smart Home Center Pingba with music box as the wireless Bluetooth audio home theater suite echo wall support Samsung Skyworth Hisense TV 1999 yuan Jingdong to buy I just used a TV with a 3s 65-inch TV host (4999 yuan to buy, it is estimated that Xiaomi does not make money, and later from the official website.), as well as music screen Pingba's evaluation machine, it is used to do References and comparisons. Millet (MI) Millet TV 4 L65M5-AB 65 Inch 3GB+32GB 4.9mm Slim Panorama Sound Theater 4K Ultra HD Smart Flat Panel TV (Grey) 9999 Yuan Jingdong To Buy Millet and LeTV also have the function of a "TV box", integrated hardware and system. Here I will only talk about the "sound quality" part. Let's take a look at the appearance: The first feeling is that it is "big" and it is long and thick. In this comparison, it looks like LeTV is going to "lean" a lot. The Rambler S50 is the only product of the three products that uses a wood MDF construction and has a walnut veneer. The thick box can fully absorb the bad resonance. Knowledge Point 1: What is Hi-Res? The sound that the human ear hears, besides having certain requirements for the player (speaker), the requirement for the front end is just as high, and the lossless sound source (Flac) is precisely for improving the quality of the sound source. Hi-Res is Sony's latest high-quality music standard. Hi-Res is an abbreviation of High Resolution Audio, and High Resolution means high resolution and high resolution. How does Hi-Res describe it? Sony gave us the answer that is higher than 44.1kHz / 16bit (CD sound quality) sound quality, is 192kHz / 24bit or higher resolution, that is, the sampling rate is higher than 44.1KHz, bit depth greater than 16bit. The sounds of nature are all frequency. To record these sounds, the sound signals need to be sampled and saved. The audio sampling rate refers to the number of times the recording device samples the sound signal in one second. The higher the sampling frequency, the more natural and natural the restoration of the sound. Knowledge Point 2: Why do good speakers are made of wood? 1, high density Most of the materials used in wooden speakers are MDF medium density fiberboard, which is made of wood fiber or other plant fibers as a raw material, broken, fiber separated, dried and then applied adhesive, and then heated and pressed into an artificial plate. . Uniform density, smooth surface, thickness 5-30 mm. 2, playback effect is good The MDF structure of the box is very stable, there will be no deformation at different temperatures, and the wooden airtightness is very good, so that the sound signal can be effectively expressed through the air vibration inside the box, and the thickness of the box is To a certain extent, it is also a powerful guarantee for realizing the subwoofer effect. OVER Comparing the three products, the appearance of the walker is the best at home, and at first sight is the product made by the speaker company. It is a "speaker." Edifier S50 back interface, support fiber input, AUX input, coaxial, while supporting Bluetooth input. Millet and LeTV have systems that support Apple Airplay. The middle knob press to select the input source, rotate to adjust the volume, the maximum volume is 50. UFO remote control, can adjust the volume, select the input source, switch the sound field mode. One of the big advantages of the round design is that you can't easily mix it with the TV's remote control. The millet TV host has a technological van, and the industrial design is also very good. The curves in the middle are particularly muscular. Even on the edge, they are very hard and do a little concave. The downside is that the gray fabric is not very resistant to dirt and it looks like it has been dirty for a while. Millet TV 3s comes standard with the middle part of the TV host is plastic, as if the retail home speaker middle part is metal, there are products, and let me be a confirmation Kazakhstan. Le Siping’s industrial design does not say anything, but euphemistically, it’s not “surprisingâ€. LeTV does a good job, but the host still learns how the speaker company does it. No need to be so blunt. Although the silver paint makes screen tyrants still look like aluminum alloy textures, but in their hands, the sense of plastic is still very heavy. Well, big plastic. Fortunately, as a reference contrast, music screen screen tyrant comes standard with a subwoofer, which is also a big plastic. The advantage is that, theoretically, the bass part will work better. Of course, the sound part has to sleep before you know it. Wrong, it was only after listening. Disassemble comparison (I wanted to disassemble the Le video screen, did not find the screw, but also reluctant to defect) Xiaomi: This work is still very good. Ramblers: Large volume, a lot of sound units. About the configuration part, we refer to the official description (software content has been deleted) â— The titanium dome of the S50 tweeter. â— Four 70mm aluminum metal diaphragm units, with double inverted tube design, to strengthen the low-frequency. â— The S50 adopts DSP digital audio processing technology which is excelled in high-end products by the Rambler to precisely control the crossover frequency and use the German KLIPPEL system. â— Adopts two professional Texas Instruments TAS-5754 power amplifiers to independently control two treble and mid-bass, and the power is continuous. The TAS-5754's output PWM frequency is 768 kHz, which optimizes the treble distortion and noise floor. â— Treble: 12W x 2, bass: 32W x 2. Accessories: Many people like to hang the Soundbar on the wall, so the Edifier S50 comes standard with a pendant and expansion screws so it can be hung directly. Millet and LeTV did not have pendants. Another Tucao handheld vacuum cleaner Dyson, give me a pendant does not deserve expansion screws. I took off my trousers and you showed me this, too bullied. Audition part: In fact, I originally used a SONY voice recorder to record sounds, but I found that the resolution of this item could not fully restore the differences between the three products. In addition, the digital conversion caused a high distortion rate, so I ended up using my oral method to express three things. Product audition experience. Listen to this thing and listen to it completely. Everyone's preferences are different, listening to different styles of music, the definition of speakers will be different. Of course, because the volume of the three Soundbars is better than the sound of the TV itself, the volume is louder, the level is clearer, and the performance of the treble and bass will be better. Audition tracks: 1. Movie Soundtrack "Sidak Bale" - "Sun Flag" 2. The original soundtrack of the film "Sidak Bale" - "Song of Life" 3. Movie Soundtrack "The City of Philharmonic" - "Ctiy of Stars" Connection method: Bluetooth BT or airplay Speaking from the bad first: LeTV When it comes to this product, the biggest worry is that LeTV can have good sound quality. The facts tell me: No. The visual experience of LeTV Pingba can be said to be mediocre. After adding the bass unit, although the bass part is better, but the overall feeling of "boring", such as "The Song of Life," the first 8 seconds of drum sound, screen tyrant's drum sound is like a cover, it is not clear enough and real. In "Ctiy of Stars", which is mainly for testing voices, background music and vocals are mixed together. Sound quality and price cannot be equated. However, LeTV is a very good TV box, equipped with MStar 6A938 is currently the strongest hardware configuration, which is screen hard hardware costs. But on the audio part, screen tyrants can't satisfy me. Millet TV host: The sound quality of the Xiaomi TV host is a relatively flattering style. The first volume is large enough. When you can obviously feel the 25% volume, it sounds louder than the walker S50. The entire audio tuning style belongs to the category of “kind play timesâ€, so for most users, this style is quite enjoyable. In the movie soundtrack "Sideke Balai", Xiaomi's overall low-frequency performance is better. In the 40-second transition of the "Sun Flag", the changes in the environment can be clearly distinguished. It can take you into the movie environment very well. The drumbeat that began in the 8th second of "The Song of Life" also performed quite clearly. Xiaomi is indeed very cost-effective in this price range. Edifier S50 If you describe in the simplest terms, the difference between the Rambler S50 Hi-Res and Xiaomi, its greatest advantage is in the "vocal", when you listen to the "Ctiy of Stars", you can clearly feel the difference between them. The greatest feature of the rambler is "clearness." The instruments and vocals are completely separated. You can clearly feel the advantages of this tune in music. How many years of technology has accumulated. The rambler has indeed done more in this area. Good, but also closer to the Hi-Fi experience. Is it suitable for listening to music and will the effect of watching movies be "worse"? I would like to talk about the experience that the S50 gave me in "Sideke Balai". It doesn't have the kind of over-emphasized feeling of "emphasis" played by the Xiaomi TV host, but just like the kind of height reduction in the vocals, the movie The restoration in China is equally clear. The drums in the "Sun Flag" give rise to a "depression" (parts after 2 minutes and 05 seconds) in the ups and downs. It is restored and displayed just right. This feeling is more "history-resistant," and you will be used to experiencing it repeatedly. supplement: After all the tests I had last night, I discovered a new problem. Apple's mobile phone does not support high-quality Bluetooth transmission of APTX. Therefore, using Bluetooth alone to test audio has caused some problems. (You have a good car, but you can only drive on the bad road) So, at this time, I played the same test music with my recording pen (Sony ICD-SX2000 Hi-Res priced at 1699 yuan). Due to the higher quality of audio reproduction, you will find that the advantage of the Rambler S50 in the vocal part is even more prominent. At this time, the advantages of Edmund S50's acoustic specifications have been further demonstrated, opening the gap with the Xiaomi TV host. to sum up: LeTV and the millet body are all equipped with hardware configurations and systems. To be precise, these two products are different from the Edifier S50. LeTV's advantage is: flagship hardware configuration. The smoothness of the MStar 6A938 system, coupled with LeTV's system is also very good. Millet TV host: If the 4999 yuan millet TV 3s 65-inch version is still on sale, I must devaluate. However, after the panel prices (perhaps it itself loses money), this product will soon go offline. Currently selling a home theater version of 1999 yuan. There is no direct "purchase of purchase" conflict with the Rambler S50. If you just want to improve the "sound quality", then the lower-cost, better performance of the Rambler S50 may be the best choice. Edifier S50's main competition is actually JBL STV125 1499 yuan, Sony HT-CT390 1599 yuan. Edifier S50's overall is the only soundbar with the same price in a full-wood box design, the product follows the titanium top treble + aluminum diaphragm in the gold combination, with DSP digital audio processing and powerful amplifier system. Consider it also has Bluetooth, coaxial, fiber and other audio access methods. Rambler S50 heritage is the walker has always been professional and cost-effective features.
