After the product is connected to the power supply, as the light inside the speaker lights up, my colleague next to me involuntarily said, “Wow, this is also So cool!” Of course I felt that way too. The overall design of Edifier Huazai’s NEW-X speakers is inspired by game water-cooled chassis and cool shipping containers. The two huge sounding units are directly exposed on the front of the speaker, with a very wild style.

sound quality

For a speaker product, the most important thing is its sound quality performance. Edifier Huazai NEW-X is equipped with a 15W 1-inch tweeter, matched with a 25W 3-inch mid-bass unit, combined with the MazeTube maze The inverter system, combined with the TurbMuff airflow noise suppression technology, can greatly reduce the turbulence and wind noise of the inverter tube, and further enhance the low-frequency performance of the speaker.

Of course, the hardware configuration is only a part, and the quality of the tuning will also directly affect the sound quality performance. The tuning of this speaker is done by Edifiers with 26 years of audio tuning experience. This also made me curious about the sound quality of this speaker.

For the subjective sense of hearing, the Edifier Huazai NEW-X speaker brought me a big surprise, such as the excellent output power of this speaker, balanced tri-band performance and high-quality sound details. Taking the daily use scenario as an example, it is difficult for ordinary portable speakers at this price on the market to cover a space of 50 square meters, but the total output power of this speaker can reach 40W, which can perfectly cover a listening environment of 50 square meters or even larger.

In terms of three-frequency performance, the Edifier Huazai NEW-X has a relatively full low frequency, with a certain depth and volume of diving. For classical music and pop music, it can have a relatively good performance; in the intermediate frequency, the number of people of this speaker is very clean and mellow, with distinct layers, and it is also very durable. Although this speaker is a mono design, it can also have a good sense of sound field, which is worthy of recognition; in high frequency, the sound of Edifier Huazai NEW-X is bright and open, and it also has a certain degree of wear and tear. Permeability. In terms of analytical performance, this speaker has high sound quality. As mentioned earlier, Edifier Huazai NEW-X is a mono speaker, but the various instruments and vocals in the sound field of this speaker They are all independent and clear, which to a certain extent shows the level of Edifier’s professional tuning.

In general, the Edifier Huazai NEW-X speaker has a very balanced three-band performance capability. This speaker can have a more realistic restoration ability for most types of music, and can also bring good listening performance. , considering its positioning, I think the performance of the sound part of this speaker is very satisfactory.

write at the end

Edifier Huazai NEW-X breaks the inherent traditional speaker design style, adopts a more radical and younger design style, and combines the three requirements of desktop RGB light pollution, desktop near-field listening, and digital device charging into one. It provides a brand new desktop audio solution for today’s young consumer groups. After the overall experience, it is not difficult to find that if you are a young person who wants to pursue trends and like new things, then I think the world’s first light-cooling energy speaker, NEW-X, may be a product specially created for you.
