A Few Tips For Audiophiles
For audio enthusiasts, how to make their selected equipment (including speakers, power amplifiers, sound sources and other peripherals) have the highest Hi Fi level and the most reasonable price has become the ultimate goal that many friends have been working hard to explore and pursue.
In fact, the collocation and adjustment of audio equipment pc surround sound speakers is a subject involving a wide range of mysterious temptations and challenges.
It not only integrates electronic technology, electroacoustic technology, music art, aesthetic accomplishments, and music appreciation, but also consumes a lot of time, money, and energy in exchange for lessons learned and experience accumulated during continuous practice and learning.
The ups and downs, sorrows of loss and cheers during this period can be described as a lot of life, so it is difficult to find the idiom "contentment is always happy" in the dictionary of enthusiasts.
On the road of fever, we have to embrace the mini computer speaker with hot "love" and persistent "obsession". We have to spend a lot of spare time and more than half of our life savings.
We have to work hard with wisdom, physical strength, ear power and heart power. Maybe it will take ten or eight years to "smell the plum blossom until the bitter cold".
Therefore, it can be said that: equipment matching and sound correction skills are the touchstone to measure whether you are worthy of the special title of "audio enthusiast", and also the basis to judge the level of entry-level, intermediate, advanced and even master level enthusiasts.
The word "reasonable" is the most important for the selection of sound, and its essence is nothing more than four words: "high quality and low price".
Unfortunately, the audio industry has always said that every penny is worth every penny, so "the highest possible Hi Fi level and the lowest possible price" have become a pair of incompatible spears and shields.
"It is almost impossible for horses to run fast and eat less grass"! In fact, this unlikely exactitude is exactly where the real kung fu of equipment matching and the fun of playing computer fever lie, and it is also the highest level that should be pursued and achieved by reasonable matching and tuning of sound.
Whoever can solve this pair of spears and shields can be called a "master".
We can regard the computer speakers for audiophiles as a strong and rebellious good stallion. If we want to tame it, we must find out its temper and personality.
Similarly, if you want to control your stereo, you should also understand the characteristics of your stereo. In fact, the characteristics of a set of stereo can be roughly divided into the following categories:
Tone Quality
The word "sound quality" generally means the quality of sound, but in sound technology it includes three aspects: pitch, pitch and timbre.
Talking about the sound quality of a certain sound is mainly to measure whether the above three aspects of the sound have reached a certain level.
That is, whether the pitch relative to a certain frequency or frequency band has a certain intensity, whether the amplitude of each frequency point is balanced and full within the required frequency range and at the same volume, whether the frequency response curve is straight, and whether the sound accuracy is accurate, which faithfully presents the original appearance of the source frequency or components.
The frequency distortion and phase shift meet the requirements. The overtones of the voice are moderate, and the harmonics are rich, so the timbre is beautiful.
Thickness
Coarse sense: The instrument should have a moderate coarse sense, and each instrument has a different coarse sense.
If the sound is more detailed than the original instrument (due to insufficient sound analysis ability), it will lose the texture of the instrument, and sometimes the sound is not vivid enough.
If the sound exceeds the rough texture of the instrument itself, it will sound harsh. So the exquisite and vivid sound quality is our goal.
Sound Purity
Sound purity: whether the sound equipment can reproduce the sound quality of the original instrument, in addition to the factors in the conversion process, there will also be factors in the rendering of the equipment itself.
For example, the horn box made of plastic will add plastic sound to the playback sound The chassis made of aluminum, copper and iron will also have different metal sounds.
And various parts, such as crystals, vacuum tubes, capacitors, resistors, etc., will also produce their own different sound quality and penetrate into the playback sound. The noise produced by the poor quality of parts will also cause impurities in the sound.
Elastic
Elasticity: It is like the feeling of QQ elasticity when we eat noodles and rice. It can be said that it is a rhyme or a resonance phenomenon with moderate damping.
In fact, elasticity is omnipresent in music, not necessarily referring to the bass part. A good voice should be elastic, whether it is bass, midrange or even treble, but the part that affects the elasticity of the whole range is mainly in the low frequency.
If the sound equipment does not control the low frequency well, the low frequency will be soft, loose, dragging, or without rhyme.
If the low frequency has excessive damping, the ending is too fast, too short, and there is no aftertaste, the low frequency details will not be fully displayed. A good low frequency should be elastic. The sound comes out with a tail rhyme. It will pop up and come back like a spring. It is flexible and elastic.
Sense of density
Density sense: It is found from experience that the sound density of each equipment is different at different frequencies.
Therefore, we must compare the density of treble, midrange and bass. If the density is not enough, the sound will be sparse, scattered, fat and cohesive.
In fact, the collocation and adjustment of audio equipment pc surround sound speakers is a subject involving a wide range of mysterious temptations and challenges.
It not only integrates electronic technology, electroacoustic technology, music art, aesthetic accomplishments, and music appreciation, but also consumes a lot of time, money, and energy in exchange for lessons learned and experience accumulated during continuous practice and learning.
