The author puts forward the question of "whether it is worth buying a music player". I feel a little ridiculous because I have a high demand for sound quality as an enthusiast. It is imperative to have a suitable player, but the actual situation is Yes: I have several high-end pure music players, but I usually use my mobile phone to listen to songs. This enthusiast is not very qualified.
For most consumers, listening to music is just to pass the time, especially those living in the metropolis. On the subway, the boring time mostly chooses to listen to music, play games, and read novels. The phone integrates all of these features, so most people choose their phones.
When we talk about "Do you need a player dedicated to listening to music?", "mobile phone" is a very important keyword. The phone integrates too many functions, it can satisfy the big entertainment of consumers. Part of the demand, which makes the existence of many electronic products meaningless, such as card cameras, such as the once popular MP3 player.
MP3 was originally a lossy music file format. The size of a 5-minute CD-level song is about 50MB, and when it becomes the highest-quality 320kbps MP3 format, the size is more than 10MB, which means It is easier to copy and spread, especially in the era of poor network speed and high traffic. Therefore, music players that play MP3 format are popular all over the world, and MP3 becomes the name of music player.
However, as the function of the mobile phone becomes more powerful, the ability to play MP3 files is integrated, and the playback effect is in the middle of most MP3 players. In the face of convenience of use, consumers do not have to spend "additional money" to purchase. The power of "repetitive function products", MP3 player after the short period of 98-2008 10 years of life, basically disappeared, and exited the historical stage.
The author said that the "basic" silenced the disappearance, did not say anything to death, it is because some brands survived, Sony, Iowa's player has been updated, and Apple's iPod series is still available.
In a corner of the huge market, the group of enthusiasts has been growing up in silence, retaining a fertile land for high-end music players, and finally one day it broke ground...
In the market of music players, domestic brands have been at the forefront of the world for the first time, leading the development of the industry. They basically have excellent sound quality, but they all have large size, short battery life, anti-human operation, system cottage Such defects have also shaped the term "national brick". Now, with the return of Avery and the awakening of SONY, domestic brands have finally realized the crisis and become more sophisticated, the era of high-quality music players. The coming is coming.
On the other hand, mobile phone manufacturers are playing different kinds of hardware and playing the price war, and they have begun to make differences. Most of them have tried to play the camera function, and the sound quality has been regarded as a good card by some manufacturers. Therefore, we have also seen the use of high-end decoder chips, the use of top-level op amp music phone products, their sound quality is indeed significantly improved compared to the previous mobile phone, although many mobile phone brands did not promote the sound quality of mobile phones, but in the context of large markets The sound quality of most mobile phone brands has improved.
The high-quality player will inevitably develop a part of the consumer group that belongs to it, that is, the enthusiast group. Even if the mobile phone has improved in sound quality, it is still difficult to cross the limitations of the platform. After reaching a certain level, it is difficult to improve. For the public, "sound quality" is really hard to be a reference factor for buying a mobile phone, which will cause mobile phone manufacturers not to really invest more resources to play sound quality, while the space of high-quality players is improved. Space is not big, but after all, it is much higher than mobile phones. Many people may think that high-quality players are higher than mobile phones. The answer is actually very simple. A guy who is bigger than a mobile phone is doing the same thing as a mobile phone. And the Components used are better, the so-called surgery has a specialization, it will be strange if it is not high!
Because the author is an enthusiast, plus audio editors, it is a matter of course. There are many audio equipments on the market. In the early years, the authors also took "national bricks" because the sound quality is indeed much stronger than the mobile phone. But when the author later turned into carrying two mobile phones, the body had no third pocket to hold it. In the face of convenience, the author had to choose to give up one of them. Finally, the author chose to go out and use the mobile phone to listen to music.
When I go out, I will carry them because there is a package for them. There are many enthusiasts around the author, many people use these high-quality players, but many old burners just use the phone to listen to the songs, why Yes: We are old, no physical strength and then take a brick out, go home every day to listen to it, the road will make do with it.
You don't satisfy the sound quality of your mobile phone. You want to hear the beauty and music that is touching on the subway. You have enough spending power. You have the determination to be troublesome. Then you really need one.
And if you face the trouble of carrying, and the various dissatisfaction in use, especially in the face of unacceptable selling prices, and feel that the sound of the mobile phone is completely sufficient, then you do not need to reimburse for the so-called high sound quality. Why bother?
So when I get here, the conclusion is really ethereal. In my opinion, most consumers use mobile phones to listen to music. It is completely OK. High-quality music players are more suitable for enthusiasts to choose. Of course, if you have high demand for sound quality, Even if I didn't think about a fever, it is worth to choose.
Expansion: Sound quality? Originally a subjective feeling!
Speaking of sound quality, it is really difficult to explain. After all, since ancient times, there have been slang words of "seeing the truth as a real thing". How can such a vain thing be described?
Sound quality is a very subjective feeling, so it is artistic, because art is also illusory, this is a pursuit of beauty, but different eras, different cultures, the definition of beauty is different, so It has created the difference of art, and this makes the art more colorful. The sound quality is also the same. The different levels of different cultures will have different definitions of beautiful sounds. The most intuitive performance is that some people like the bass, and some People like to be balanced and plain, and each era has different definitions.
For high-quality music players, the author is more to compare their portability, endurance and ease of use, of course, but also consider the brand, price, materials and other factors, and as for "sound quality", I personally feel that each The equipment is an independent individual, each has its own taste. It is not a very appropriate metaphor: Who do you like more than the paintings of Monet and Van Gogh? Or do you like Munch’s "Scream"? Or Van Gogh's "Starry Sky", in most cases, we still have different choices according to personal tastes. This is also a definition of personal beauty, and we basically define what is beautiful in the context of the big era. .
- So, sound quality? It was originally a subjective feeling, everyone is different, and what is needed is king.
Written here seems to say a lot of nonsense... Forgive me, can write it is already good, today's player market is also a small outbreak, the product is more and more, and the parameters of these products have already been To achieve the level of so-called HiFi, such as signal-to-noise ratio, the total harmonic distortion of the horse, the human ear has long been unable to distinguish, but who's voice can meet the needs of more people? Is to cater to more Consumers, or take their own way to understand consumers, this is a different choice for each equipment manufacturer, and this also makes us have more choices, the era of so-called contending is the most beautiful, always eat one Kinds of food will be greasy, are you right?
