In the previous article, when the new version of "Summer Solar" single-action iron earphones that were just launched on the shelves of Ruike Yuyin, I deliberately left a button, which is the CX5 e-sports sound card in the three-piece set. It is still a bit surprising to release a USB sound card today when the "little tail" is popular. Although it can also be connected to a mobile phone (need to be equipped with an adapter), in terms of official promotion and introduction, this new product focuses on computers such as PCs/laptops. Let’s take a look at the specific performance of this “little guy”:
Compared with the exquisite printing and gift box-level binding of Yuyin’s headphones. The packaging of this CX-5 can be described as "simple". The cowhide yellow corrugated cardboard box is simple and unpretentious, and there is no sketch and cover on the front sticker. Only eye-catching models and names express their specific functions. There is no usual list of references on the back of the box, but the factory address and other information are printed in black on the white background.
contents, in addition to the instructions page and the main body of the sound card, the OMTP/CTIA converter is also standard. Some people don’t know what it is for. Here is a little popular science. There are two current headphone interface standards, namely OMTP and CTIA. The first one is supported by domestically, referred to as the "national standard" for short; the second one is international standard, commonly known as the "American standard". The order of the two standard pin connection methods is different. CTIA is ground-microphone, while OMTP is opposite (microphone-ground). Although they are all 3.5mm headphone jacks, and OMTP and CTIA headphones can be plugged in and listen to sound normally, the MIC (microphone) part will still be affected. As can be seen from the accessories, the lingering sound is still very considerate.
In fact, before the launch of CX-5, Yuyin released a small tail in the shape of an adapter, namely CX-3. Very small, quick plug-in and unplug, and easy to use. Although the CX-5 this time is a continuation of the latter in terms of name, it is completely different in terms of form and positioning. The aerospace aluminum body ensures its lightness and durability, and has good shielding performance (can isolate the current sound and high frequency noise of most equipment). Although the whole body is square, the edges and edges are cut in one by four-axis CNC, which will not hurt your hands. The black body is very attractive with the patterns and patterns on the front and back sides. The size of the USB flash drive is very suitable for carrying around, but it would be even better if you can add a dust cap. Its DAC is an ESS9318 chip solution and has 32bit/384kHz full-band decoding support. Its built-in ADC chip can support 24bit/96kHz, high-definition voice calls. However, it is a bit regrettable that the random type-C adapter is not included, and you need to purchase it separately.

号号 CX-5 is compatible with multiple platforms. Whether it is a WIN/MAC desktop or a mobile terminal like Android, it can be plug-and-play. There is no need to install a driver or a third-party APP at all. However, some models of Android devices need to turn on the OTG function. The WIN system desktop I use automatically recognizes it after plugging in the sound card and is used normally. We can set its sound, properties and other options in the "Play Device" of the system tray. Although the price of
is less than one piece, the workmanship of the fuselage is not sloppy. In addition, the patterns on both sides of the fuselage are different. On one side is a sea of music with logo, and on the other side is a giant whale swimming in the ocean, which is also interesting. I hope that more versions with different body color schemes can be launched later. The interfaces at both ends of
sound card are 3.5mm single-ended (microphone and headphone two-in-one) and USB-A sockets, and their orientation design is just like what I said in the previous article. In other words, the USB and headphone jacks are not centered, but are arranged up and down. This is a bit of a force to kill the rhythm of obsessive-compulsive disorder , but I personally feel that it is nothing.
Although it is the leader of "e-sports", it is really good to listen to music with the "summer solstice" headphones at hand. Its sound base is pure, anti-interference performance is good, and there is no subtle noise floor. The sound is delicate and warm, the vocals are smooth and smooth, with a certain degree of cohesion, and the sense of positioning and analysis are also good. The separation from the instrument is good, and there will be no chaotic feeling. With the balanced and natural three-frequency performance, it can still be pleasant to listen to when used for listening to the popular ones. Especially when compared with the computer's own sound card, its improvement can still be clearly perceived.
Of course, in addition to music, the performance of the Eyes CX-5 in the game is more satisfactory. I played several games of PUBG and CS. During the game, such as footsteps, weapon switching sounds, and some subtle sounds, they can be restored more clearly, easier to distinguish, and the sound positioning is more accurate and easy. The distance and position of the enemy can be keenly captured, so as to be one step ahead and take the lead in defeating the enemy.
Summary: The price of this CX5 e-sports sound card of Ruike Yuyin is less than 100 yuan, and Yuyin users can even buy more and get more discounts. As one of this new "three-piece set", it is very good to use it with "Summer Solar" headphones. For computer users, whether it is listening to music, playing games, or watching movies, it is significantly improved compared to the built-in sound card. What's more, with the root adapter, you can also connect to your mobile phone and tablet. I personally highly recommend it.
