Peb cov kws tshaj lij tau sim 94 Cov khoom lag luam hauv Headphones Qeb Xyoo no

Txij li xyoo 1982, PCMag tau sim thiab ntsuas ntau txhiab yam khoom los pab koj txiav txim siab yuav zoo dua. (Saib seb peb sim li cas.)

Piv txwv li, cov hlau nplaum hauv lub pob ntseg uas pab nrog cov txheej txheem docking kuj ua rau lawv tawm tsam ntawm ib leeg thaum koj tso lawv nyob ze. Thiab tus cwj pwm ua khub tau hnov ​​​​rov qab rau hnub ntxov ntawm lub mloog pob ntseg tiag tiag, uas ib lub pob ntseg txuas rau koj lub xov tooj (lossis lwm lub suab) thiab tom qab ntawd lwm qhov sim ua ke nrog nws. Tam sim no, feem ntau lub mloog pob ntseg wireless tuaj yeem ua khub ntawm nws tus kheej (lossis ib txhij) nrog lub hauv paus.

Cov vaj huam sib luag sab nrauv ntawm txhua lub mloog pob ntseg muaj kev thawb-khawm tswj. Ib tug kais ntawm ob leeg tuav playback thiab hu rau kev tswj. Ib tug ntev nias ntawm sab laug pob ntseg navigates rov qab ib tug khiav, thaum nyob rau sab xis, nws hla mus rau pem hauv ntej. Muab ob npaug rau kais ntawm sab laug thiab sab xis earpieces raws li qis dua thiab tsa lub ntim. Cov kev tswj hwm yog me ntsis ua rau tsis zoo, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog thaum koj sim ua ob lub kais dej, tab sis lawv ua haujlwm zoo thiab peb txaus siab rau qhov muaj qhov ntim ntawm cov tswj.

Kev ntsuam xyuas IPX5 txhais tau hais tias lub pob ntseg tuaj yeem tiv thaiv kev tawg ntawm txhua qhov kev taw qhia. Tsis txhob tawm hws lossis nag los nag yuav tsum yog qhov teeb meem, tab sis tsis txhob tso dej los yog ua rau lawv muaj dab tsi ntau dua li lub teeb dej siab.

Cov ntaub ntawv them nyiaj, zoo li lub pob ntseg pob ntseg, muaj ib qho khoom siv sab nrauv. Qhov taw qhia LED zaum nyob rau pem hauv ntej, thaum lub nraub qaum tsev muaj USB-C chaw nres nkoj rau kev them nyiaj ntawm USB-C-rau-USB-A cable uas los hauv lub thawv. 

Yamaha kwv yees tias lub mloog pob ntseg tuaj yeem kav ntev li 6 teev ntawm roj teeb. Cov ntaub ntawv them nyiaj muab 18 teev ntxiv. Tsis muaj kev ntsuam xyuas tshwj xeeb, tab sis koj cov txiaj ntsig roj teeb yuav txawv nyob ntawm koj qib ntim.

Lub Yamaha Headphones Controller app (muaj nyob rau hauv thiab iOS no) muaj firmware hloov tshiab, lub peev xwm los kho lub pib lub hwj chim-tawm timer, thiab cov kev xaiv los lov tes taw "kev saib xyuas mloog," uas yog tsuas yog cov teeb liab ua (DSP). Peb xav pom qhov kev xaiv EQ ntawm no tsawg kawg nkaus.

Suab nrov nrov

Txawm hais tias TW-E3B earphones muaj me ntsis kom tau txais kev zoo siab los ntawm kev tsim qauv, lawv lub suab zoo yuav rov hais dua rau qee tus neeg mloog, vim tias cov neeg tsav tsheb tsim cov suab kom raug.

Bill Callahan's "Drover," ib txoj kab nrog deb tsawg dua bass thaj tsam hauv kev sib xyaw, zoo dua qhia TW-E3B lub suab profile. Cov nruas ntawm qhov kev sib tw no suab huv, meej, thiab raug-lawv muaj qee qhov thump, tab sis tsis muaj dab tsi los ze rau qhov xob quaj peb hnov ​​​​los ntawm cov neeg sib tw bass-forward. Lub suab kos npe ntawm no yog ci ntsa iab thiab meej, nrog kev ntxim nyiam tsawg zaus anchoring.

Ntawm Jay-Z thiab Kanye West's "Tsis Muaj Lub Koom Txoos Hauv Tsiaj Tsiaj," lub voj voog ncaws pob tau txais qhov zoo tshaj plaws ntawm qhov muaj nyob nruab nrab; qhov no tso cai rau nws tawm tsam kom khaws nws cov punchiness. Lub vinyl crackle thiab hiss kuj tau hnov ​​​​los ntawm qhov pom tseeb ntawm qhov siab-mids thiab highs, tab sis sub-bass synth hits uas punctuate tus yeej tuaj nrog lub hwj chim qhuas. Tsis yog, lawv tsis suab zoo li lub subwoofer tau cog rau hauv koj lub pob txha taub hau, tab sis lub pob ntseg ncav cuag thiab tuav lub suab bass thaj tsam sib sib zog nqus thaum nws nyob hauv qhov sib xyaw. Lub suab ntawm qhov kev taug qab no suab huv thiab meej, ib yam nkaus, nrog kab tias me ntsis kev sib raug zoo ntxiv.

Orchestral lem, zoo li qhov qhib scene los ntawm John Adams ' Txoj Moo Zoo Raws li Lwm Tus Mary, suab nkig thiab ci. Cov cuab yeej sau npe qis tsis tau hais meej ntau thiab ua lub luag haujlwm txhawb nqa rau ntau dua-sau npe tooj dag, hlua, thiab suab. Cov lows tau hais meej me ntsis ntawm cov suab paj nruag jazz, zoo li Miles Davis '"Pharaoh's Dance," uas tau txais qhov zoo nkauj zoo nkauj qis thiab qis nruab nrab rau cov nruas thiab ntses bass thaj tsam.

Lub built-in mic, ntawm qhov tod tes, yog nruab nrab. Thaum peb sim nws siv lub Voice Memos app ntawm iPhone, peb tuaj yeem nkag siab txhua lo lus peb kaw, tab sis lub teeb liab tsis muaj zog. Ntawm lub teeb liab ntawm tes zoo, koj cov lus yuav pom tseeb, tab sis koj lub suab yuav nrov nyob deb.
