In recent years, the television circle has prevailed in a strange phenomenon of only thinness and quality. In today's world where appearance is justice, in order to pursue slenderness, the volume of the SOUND cavity of tv audio is sacrificed, resulting in unsatisfactory tv sound performance. However, the elegant, beautiful musical melody we can not always refuse, it is like spiritual food, become a part of our lives. 10 years ago, a music mobile phone advertising song - "I had a cold in that corner" was familiar to many people. 10 years later, a tv set featuring music also began to enter our lives, it is Vidda V5G.
Identify market pain points Starting from demand
In today's increasingly rich mobile applications, mobile phones have become one of our inseparable products. And the TV, perhaps for young people is just an ornament, after all, the traditional TV can not bring any content to enhance the experience, which is why some brands began to focus on smart screens. Especially today's young people have higher requirements for television, and it is no longer the era of light appearance and clear picture quality. In addition to the picture quality, there must be sound quality, but also intelligent enough, these 3 items are equally important, in order to enter the "eyes of the law" of young people. Among them, in terms of picture quality, the upstream chip brands have now done well enough, and the intelligent terminal brands have also been trained. On the contrary, the sound quality can not meet the demand, if the user transforms itself, it is both troublesome and increases the cost, which requires a one-stop all-in-one product.
In addition, due to well-known reasons, many offline entertainment venues are not open, if you want to go to KTV to sing will hit a wall, so many people began to choose to sing a song at home. If you buy a separate K-song system at home, it is not only complicated to install, but also very expensive. If the TV is integrated, it is both cost-effective and more convenient to use. It was precisely because of the pain points in the TV market that Vidda launched music TV.
Debut is the peak
V5G is already Vidda's second-generation music TV, and music TV is by no means a concept product, it is not simply stacked. Vidda V5G is an industry-standard music TV, hardware alone is not enough, it also joins hands with JBL and Kugou Music to open up from hardware to software tuning to song library, through the combination of strength and power, redefine the big-screen music TV.
In terms of hardware, the Vidda V5G is equipped with JBL's tailor-made sound system, and the sound is tuned by harman Kardon's Golden Ear team. It is reported that after 5 months of polishing, listening time of more than 1,000 minutes, with 9 major items and 27 small items of objective test + subjective blind listening test, and finally designed the V5G beyond the same level of product Vidda HiFi sound system. It is reported that the Golden Ear team is selected through a series of professional scientific standards, and each member must undergo long-term rigorous training to finally pass a difficult exam, which has a pass rate of only 3%.
The Vidda V5G is equipped with a 5.1 surround sound field (center + left and right channel + left and right surround + bass) and 13 JBL sound units (6 main channels + 2 center + 2 surround + 1 bass, and 2 bass passive spokes). It is understood that only the audio system part, vidda V5G cost more than 10 times the same price of products. In addition, Vidda V5G has also added Dolby + DTS dual decoding, which improves sound quality performance by equipping Dolby ATMOS sound and Waves bass enhancement sound.
On the content side, Vidda V5G also joins forces with Kugou Music, which has a built-in massive library of genuine music songs, thereby creating a professional music channel. Vidda V5G also preset Viper sound algorithm, which includes 3D lime, subwoofer accent, pure vocals, Hi-Fi live and other sound modes, more professional than KTV. Vidda V5G also uses a very rare front-output sound scheme in the industry, and its Hi-Fi sound quality is not blocked compared to bottom-out or rear-out.
4-channel power amplifier chip with 300W peak power supply
In addition to the speakers, the Vidda V5G also uses Infineon's ACDC (Power Conversion) chip, which greatly improves the high-power transient output capability of the power supply system and ensures that the sound system has a wide dynamic range across the entire sound range. At the same time, its power supply transient peak power can reach 300W. In addition, the Vidda V5G also uses dual-winding power supply, providing more stable and abundant energy for the sound system, especially to ensure the surging output of super-heavy bass. It is worth mentioning that the Vidda V5G is also equipped with 4 high-power independent digital power amplifier chips (2 times that of ordinary), which can provide a real 5.1 surround sound cinema experience.
The Vidda V5G has 100-watts of sound output power. Its speaker power is 120W, of which the independent subwoofer is 36W and the left channel is 24W (containing 2 midranges and 1 treble). Right channel 24W (including 2 midrange 1 treble), center midrange speaker unit 12W×2, left surround tweeter 6W, right surround tweeter 6W. With a total of 3.6L of oversized sound cavities, it delivers immersive surrounds, clear and full vocal dialogue, and powerful bass.
Music audition: 10,000 yuan within the TV sound quality ceiling
Since the Vidda V5G is equipped with JBL custom speakers and has ultra-bass accent performance, I also mainly examined its performance in these aspects during the audition session. In the audition performance, whether it is representatives of ethereal schools such as Faye Wong and Enya, or thick female voices such as Adele and Cai Qin, Vidda V5G can show their sonic characteristics well, and also let me hear more sound information from them. Although the details are not rich enough to explode, the content that should be there will not be missed.
Judging from the performance of the three frequencies, the low frequencies maintain a good sense of volume and strength, and the sense of hearing is smart and refreshing, not turbid. In the mid-range vocal part, Vidda V5G can play out well, the sound position can feel the surround effect, and the sound feel is warm and full. The high-frequency part can show better resolution, and there is no obvious glitch or irritation of hearing at the very high frequency. The spatial sense of sound has a good presentation with the cooperation of Vidda V5G, the positioning is not blurry, and the horizontal and vertical space are guaranteed to a certain extent. Overall, if you have a good film or sound source, you can get good sound quality with Vidda V5G.
I also auditioned the Lossless Music Effects in vidda V5G with separately connected flash memory, and from the sound quality performance, its high frequencies are very direct, with good extension and transient performance, and the transient response is very fast. Thanks to its excellent performance of high-frequency dynamics, the connection of sound in the middle and high frequency parts will not appear very abrupt, and the overall middle and high frequency parts are rich and tense. In addition, the mid-frequency part of the Vidda V5G belongs to a denser and more neutral, loose style, which is relatively suitable for the genre of popular music.
The performance of the instruments and vocals is clear, and the sound details are very rich. In the low-frequency part, Vidda V5G appears to be relatively wide, at the same time, it has a good low-frequency control performance, the sense of hearing is capable and not turbid, the dynamic performance is in place, and the music with a strong sense of rhythm can be interpreted very feeling.
Overall, Vidda V5G's high, medium, and low frequencies are relatively balanced, with good resolution, clear layers, full sound field, proper detailing, and excellent Hi-Fi surround effect. I've never seen a product with such a powerful sound quality on the TV I've used. It's no exaggeration to say that the Vidda V5G is completely comparable to thousands of dollars of independent sound.
Cutting-edge technology is available
Do you think music TV only excels in music? Then you're underestimating the Vidda V5G. As a TV set, excellent picture quality is the most basic guarantee. In order to let users feel the excellent picture quality performance, Vidda V5G specially uses Quantum dot quantum dot technology. Unlike ordinary televisions, quantum dot televisions cover a layer of quantum dots on the blue LED backlight, which can improve the color saturation of the TV.
Due to the addition of quantum dot technology, its color gamut coverage area has been greatly improved, and its BT.709 color gamut coverage area has reached 130%, and the color saturation is very high. Even many professional creative displays struggle to reach this level.
When using it, we also noticed that although its colors are highly saturated and colorful, they will not be oversatiable, and the image has no unreal feeling, and the display is very natural. At the same time, Vidda V5G also supports Dolby VISION imaging technology, which can bring a better visual experience. This technology provides more image information, known as metadata, that contains luminance information for each frame of a movie or TV show, so display devices such as TVs can know exactly how to display pictures throughout a movie. In short, Dolby VISION is an HDR standard that uses dynamic metadata to provide users with better visuals and improve image quality.
Compared to HDR 10, Dolby VISION's content can achieve up to 12-bit color depth. How different is the difference between 12-bit color depth and 10-bit color depth? A 12-bit color depth can display more than 68 billion colors, while a 10-bit color depth can only display 1 billion colors. This means that the colors users see from Dolby VISION-enabled devices are more accurate and closer to what the human eye sees.
In addition, Vidda V5G also supports meMC motion compensation function, but don't underestimate this function, its impact on movie viewing is very obvious. MEMC is short for Motion estimate/Motion compensation, and this function is actually not a black technology in the current view, but it must be available. Its principle is through the "interpolation" technology, so that the original only 30fps of the picture at 60fps or even higher frame rate display, we know that the higher the frame rate, the smoother the visual effect, thereby reducing the sense of lag of the picture.
In order to save costs, many so-called cost-effective televisions in the market have castrated the MEMC motion compensation function. For users who have the need to watch action blockbusters and sports events, MEMC sports compensation function must be available. Of course, we don't think that the MEMC motion compensation function is only a "premium" function that only exists in mid-to-high-end TVs, and I think it should be standard for all TVs today, just like the eye protection function on the monitor.
When it comes to eye protection, the Vidda V5G is certainly indispensable. It supports non-splash screen and anti-blue light eye protection, and is also certified by the professional organization Rheinland as a true eye protection TV. Especially for users who have children at home, the eye protection function must be there, and parents must not be careless when choosing.
Users who often play online videos may encounter a problem, obviously the home is installed in the gigabit network, the router is also the latest technology of high-end products, but TV on-demand video still buffer for a long time? The reason for this is probably caused by the wireless network of the TV. Although many TVs have been upgraded to dual-band Wi-Fi, they are still in the old 5GHz band, and the speed of the network is limited. In order to avoid shortcomings on the TV side, Vidda V5G uses Wi-Fi 6, which can be used with a wi-Fi 6 router to make the network full of firepower.
In addition to the "Ren Dou Ermai" that opens up the network through Wi-Fi 6, Vidda V5G also supports far-field voice technology. By using iFLYTEK's dedicated voice AI chip CSK4002 and combined with MCU+NPU integrated IC, the computing power is as high as 128GOPS. At the same time, based on the powerful computing power of CSK, the acoustic algorithm of the industry's first full-stack neural network shows a good voice interaction experience in complex application scenarios such as multi-point noise suppression and multi-channel echo cancellation. In addition, the Vidda V5G also supports NFC one-touch screen projection, which can be quickly realized by using a mobile phone with NFC function. At the same time, it also supports voice song, if you want to hear what song you want to sing, just say it.
In order to ensure the fluency of the system, Vidda V5G in the underlying hardware is a 4-core processor of A73 architecture, equipped with 3GB RAM and 64GB ROM storage combination, compared to the same level of TVs mostly use "2 + 32" storage combination, Vidda V5G is not only smoother, but also can install more applications. Vidda V5G has a built-in Android-based JUUI intelligent operating system, the system interface is simple, the content is clear at a glance, it is very easy to get started, and you can quickly find the content you want. The system is very smooth, fast response, no delay problems, and can move forward and backward at will when playing video on demand, and the loading speed is very fast. In addition, it has cooperated with platforms such as Youku to provide massive amounts of video.
Focusing on external beauty, it won the 2021 International CMF Design Award
In addition to the inside, vidda V5G also pays great attention to external beauty. As a flagship music TV, the Vidda V5G features a metal brushed panel in terms of appearance, while with a personalized sound mesh design, and embellishments with JBL, Cool Dog & Viper sound logos to create a sense of nobility.
Vidda V5G adopts a metal suspension base design with cylindrical and finely polished hemispherical shape, while also continuing the Vidda ring of the fine metal CD texture + insert injection molding process luminous logo, as well as the integrated metal brushed frame and double CD visual bass design made of stainless steel, which vibrates with the rhythm of the shocking bass. It was its outstanding appearance and refined design that made Vidda V5G win the 2021 International CMF Design Award.
Write at the end
Overall, vidda V5G as a music TV, it is in all aspects of the ordinary smart TV is far incomparable. First of all, in terms of audiovisual effects, through our audition experience, its sound quality is quite outstanding, completely comparable to thousands of yuan of professional sound effects. At the same time, through the blessing of quantum dot technology, its color performance is better, far exceeding the same level of products; secondly, in terms of function, Wi-Fi 6, support for Dolby Vision, HDR10 high dynamic range display standards, Vidda V5G both hardware specifications and tuning technology have reached the industry's top level. Finally, the reason why Vidda V5G can be called a music TV, its sound quality is not just a gimmick, especially the sound tuning of harman Kardon's golden ear team, giving Vidda V5G a better listening experience.
Vidda V5G as a flagship product in the field of segmentation, its experience effect to us practical text and even video can not fully express, if you can actually experience it, I think you can not use it.
