Today's true wireless headphone market products can be described as very rich, but for fever users with HIFI needs, the general volume of products is actually difficult to meet its high requirements for sound quality, including the Huawei Freepod series I recently opened the box and Xiaomi's Pro version of true wireless headphones, to a greater extent in terms of functionality, fever type products actually still belong to a small circle. Of course, under the premise that fever true wireless products are relatively scarce, in fact, there are many fever manufacturers who have launched their own true wireless fever headphones in addition to deeply cultivating their own wired fever headphone product lines. Of course, if you look at it from the order of launch, perhaps Sennheiser's true wireless wooden steamed bun can be said to be a benchmark product, while the true wireless products of Sony, BOSE and Apple manufacturers, although the price has gone up, but the design concept does not seem to be a fever-level product, the focus is on endurance, noise reduction and convenience, and the cost-effective fever type of true wireless products seems to be only available from domestic products.
And from the needs of the Chinese people for HIFI sound quality, I personally think that the products launched by domestic manufacturers are better choices, in addition to the HIFIMAN TWS800 that I once opened the box not long ago, to be honest, the recent Xingge "eclipse" APT7 may be a more representative product in the field of HIFI-level true wireless headphones, at least in the design configuration, APT7 is not disappointing, there are real materials, unique appearance, for enthusiasts is one more choice. The following is a brief introduction to the personal experience of this headset after recent use.
In the traditional sense, the configuration of true wireless headphones will often be a balance, in the manufacturer to consider many factors, especially consumer factors after the final focus on the force, in the cavity of the land, the real wireless headphones play space is limited. The starting point of product design like Xingge "Eclipse" is obviously to go to the top sound quality products in the real wireless headphones, but some solvable problems Xingge seem to be also solved, and strive to do better. For example, the value of the packaging box is obviously pressed against many manufacturers, including the ENCO X produced by OPPO that has been used recently, and the price is the same as APT7 to 999 yuan, but the packaging box accessories are very simple. Relatively speaking, the packaging of APT7 this product is called luxury is not a problem, the sense of ceremony when opening is sufficient, and the so-called luxury, in fact, is more reflected in the golden color of APT7, there is also a difference from the real wireless products produced by the general male model, and the sense of fashion trend is higher.
On the other hand, Xingge APT7 this true wireless product in the design is obviously different from the friendly products, the first is that the headphone battery box is really large, can be compared to the legendary battery box of the largest product DASH Pro, the style seems to refer to the flagship model of the Sony family next door, the overall is more flat and rounded, and the color matching and APT7 headphones themselves fit each other, but the battery box is so big that the reason will actually be said below, obviously for a good drive, there is a "bottom" of the endurance , escorting APT7. Another differentiator is obviously the ear-wrapped design of APT7 itself. In fact, in order to increase the firmness and specially provide a stable accessory of the headphones are not many, sports type of true wireless headphones will often have an inner ear brace, and this stable part of the APT7 is obviously like B&O's A8, this kind of elastic memory earhook can actually increase the firmness of wearing, and good for daily use of the cochlear comfort, it seems to be a better reduction of stethoscope effect and improve comfort of the comprehensive program.
Previously, in the TWS800 of HIFIMAN, I introduced that for HIFI true wireless headphones, the independent ear amplifier design seems to have obvious advantages in hearing, and compared to the general functional products that focus on convenience and running volume, the cavity is larger but provides a more balanced and high-quality sound of the true wireless products, which is definitely a choice for burners. From the perspective of functional configuration, such as single binaural switching, Bluetooth 5.0 and aptX, xingo APT7 is enough and mainstream configuration, and also supports touch control, but overall these configurations are not enough to form a competitive advantage with friendly products. The biggest advantage of APT7, in addition to the appearance and wearing design mentioned above, is the use of graphene diaphragm dynamic unit and Lou's high-frequency moving iron, and is not the use of integrated scheme of pseudo-ring iron, while the drive part is said to be able to achieve Class AB class power amplifier output, from theory will be more power consumption but the second kill Class D drive estimation problem is not big, for HIFI playback performance to lay a good foundation. That is to say, even if it is not considered from a metaphysical point of view, APT7 wants to have a good sound, the battery life should not be high, but according to official data, APT7 can go to 11 hours of single endurance, combined with its own headphone battery box can go to 80 hours of battery life, long-term use is not a big problem.
Of course, as mentioned above, Xingge APT7 has done its best in terms of endurance and appearance, but the biggest selling point of this headset is not its functional configuration or appearance, but the real sound quality. When you first listen to APT7, you will find that his style actually continues the high quality of Xingge to a certain extent, especially the high-frequency part and his own three-unit ring iron headphones have a similar trend and tuning style, the overall clear and transparent, low frequency is not excessive and responsive, in a good diving to ensure a unique sense of air display. It can be said that the sound pressure and sound quality of APT7 are good enough, and one ear is shocking enough.
From my own feelings, the sound performance of APT7 does belong to the high-quality high-density style of wired headphones under good drive, although the thickness of the run is not as good as its own flagship products, but it is not a big problem with the circle iron products that drive a few hundred yuan. And the sound characteristics of APT7 are that the style of its instrument interpretation is very bright, low frequencies as mentioned above, retract and relax quickly, and the sense of volume is there, but under the cavity that ensures a sense of transparency, high-frequency instruments have a better display. On the other hand, I personally think that the vocal part of APT7 is also toxic, although it does not belong to the mellow and tone dye type of vocals, but the pursuit of a wide sense of space under the cavity, the lustrous and bright performance of the human voice, and in a relatively young, can vividly interpret popular jazz, this single vocal permeability of some three-unit circle iron may not be able to PK win APT7.
If you compare a few more true wireless headphones, you will find that the sound of APT7 has reached a new height, at least in my opinion and Sennheiser's wooden steamed bun mutual PK problem is not big, although the balance and low-frequency layering on the wooden steamed bun is very good, but the pursuit of sound pursuit of fresh and moist APT7, and pure dynamic circle of wooden steamed bun compared to the overall quality is even higher, especially omnivorous, popular vocal enthusiasts, APT7 seems to be a good choice for a higher number. Finally, I would like to say that nowadays, there are more and more true wireless audiophile headphones, and products like APT7 belong to the real "audiophile- level" true wireless products, as a headphone enthusiast, in fact, I can't help but gradually turn to burning such products that are convenient and sound quality. After all, from a comprehensive point of view, even for players with higher requirements, APT7 has obviously completely solved the problems of stability, endurance and face value design, and the sound quality is very good. Although the price of 999 yuan is several times the price of many running volume true wireless headphones, but compared with the large factory products of one thousand and two yuan, the playback level of APT7 is very thick, and the front-end part does not need to consider the remaining cost, for the burners who meet and have a certain pursuit, this Xingge APT7 with the name of "eclipse" should be an excellent choice.
