Because everyone’s living standards are getting higher and higher now, everyone’s requirements for life are also getting higher and higher. Now music has become an indispensable part of our lives. Music brings us It’s time to be happy, and having a good speaker is also very important. So, let’s share with you how to choose a good speaker? In addition, let’s talk about home audio purchasing tips? Let’s take a look at the relevant knowledge.

How to choose a good speaker

1. Audio classification

Home audio is divided into two categories, hifi and AV

High-Fidelity is literally translated as "high fidelity", which is defined as a reproduced sound that is highly similar to the original sound. , also plays a role in beautifying the original sound, and is generally used for home music appreciation.

AV is the abbreviation of Audio (audio signal) and Vedio (video signal). It is mostly used in home theaters. The sound quality may not be as good as the first two, but the overall effect is more shocking.

2. Brand

As a set of speakers that can bring us an audio-visual feast, it must be perfect in all aspects, and brand is the most important core. Products created by big brands with strength and background must be in line with those on the market. Third-rate products are different. And trustworthy big brands tend to have better workmanship and after-sales service. The best brands in the world are probably MHT Mchatton and Bose, which will be explained later.

3. Selection of speakers

Many people like to choose 2.1 speakers because they think it is a subwoofer. This is a misunderstanding among novices. Some novices do not understand audio, so they think that a subwoofer is a good speaker. In fact, the 2.1 speakers cannot produce low enough bass, so they use the method of pulling the bellows. Even if the audio frequency is not low enough, the airflow in the mid-range part can be muddy and thickened, so the 2.1 speakers There is always a popping sound. Therefore, the subwoofer of a 2.1 speaker is a thing that deliberately creates false bass that causes turbid and thick air vibrations for you. How can such a sound be compared with a large-diameter box in a 2.0 speaker? The sound is more or less evenly proportioned. Even if the bass produced is not very good, it is still a real bass, not the effect of a bellows, so the cost is the same. In this case, don't choose a subwoofer that makes you feel more cool, choose a 2.0 speaker

A good sound must be a balanced sound. Each segment of the sound will be evenly proportioned, and the treble must be able to Transparent to the sky, the bass should feel the pressure of the air. You can experience it. A good bass sound is not the sound of strong air beating. When choosing a sound, try to use good music to test the sound.

Home audio purchasing tips

Home audio purchasing? Power amplifier selection

The choice of power amplifier is important, but there is an important principle that the power amplifier and speakers must be the same. Try to achieve "power matching and impedance matching". Simply put, the relationship between amplifiers and speakers is like a horse and a cart. Whether it is a large horse-drawn cart or a small horse-drawn cart, it will seriously affect the efficiency of the system and even damage the system components. Therefore, the matching principle is to first of. Otherwise, the speaker system will either appear weak, dry, or hoarse. In addition to pure music amplifiers, AV amplifiers are the most commonly used amplifiers for home audio or home theaters. However, since the power amplifiers of all speaker units are concentrated here, the performance in different sound ranges of high, medium and low will be limited. It depends on what kind of tone you value more. Generally, we recommend that the output power of the power amplifier is 1.5 times the rated power of the speaker, and the multiple requirement for the bass part is higher.

Home audio purchase? Sound source selection

The sound source can be a common disc player or a more professional laser record player. Generally we do not recommend the use of MD players. Although from an auditory perspective, the sound quality of MD is not much different from that of CDs, MD sounds are compressed and transcribed products after all. The capacity of music is more than half smaller than that of CDs, and the volume is smaller. Naturally, there will be losses, and there are still differences from the most original optical disc players and glue disc players. If you choose a DVD player, the 5.1-channel jack on the back is indispensable. It must also support Dolby AC-3 decoding and DTS decoding. Do not choose a product with a built-in power amplifier.

Home audio purchase? Cabinet selection

The cabinet is the part of the speaker that we see and come into contact with. Technically speaking, wooden cabinets sound better than cabinets made of other materials, and solid wood cabinets are the best among wooden cabinets. When choosing a cabinet, we can feel the sound and texture of the cabinet wood by knocking and moving it. Generally, the sound is clean and crisp, and cabinets with a heavy feel have better sound effects. The quality of the pronunciation unit depends on the skills of each manufacturer. However, it is worth noting that in the treble part, the silk film tweeter and the metal diaphragm tweeter have better performance, the sound is clear and crisp, and the transient response is good, which can effectively enhance the transparency and penetration of the treble audio.

As for the mid-bass unit, you can choose a paper diaphragm or a canvas diaphragm. Since the material is more elastic, the sound produced is richer and more elastic. When purchasing mid-bass units, especially bass units, you should pay attention to the flexible connection between the edge of the diaphragm and the bracket. The material is secondary. The key is to check whether the diaphragm has sufficient vibration on the bracket by tapping and touching. space. Especially for the bass unit, if the vibration amplitude is small, the diaphragm stroke will be relatively small, and the strength and elasticity of the bass will be greatly reduced.

The above is the knowledge about how to choose good speakers that I shared with you today. In addition, I also shared with you the knowledge about home audio purchasing skills. I hope it can help you. Audio is an important part of every home. One of the indispensable household items for entertainment activities. With speakers, we can listen to music at home on weekends, which is also very good. So when choosing speakers, you can choose a good quality speaker.
