Many people may not have experienced Huawei Sound X Bluetooth speakers in person, but they have also heard of this product. As the first smart speaker product jointly created by Huawei and Divare . In addition to its trendy appearance design, its sound quality is also amazing. I didn’t expect that the small body could burst out with such surging energy. After the product was launched, there was still a shortage of supply and demand in a short period of time, and the brand "Tivare" was also known to the public for the first time.
Perhaps many friends have searched Divare's audio online. Each product has a very modern design aesthetic, which can attract people deeply at first sight. But when you look at the price of the product, you can immediately persuade people to give up because it is really too expensive. Currently, the cheapest Bluetooth speaker product under its is Phantom II 95dB, but the price is as high as 9,980 yuan, which makes many people feel that they are unable to love it. However, recently, Divare launched the new Bluetooth speaker product Devialet Mania, which starts at 5,980 yuan in the country. This may become your first Divare speaker.

So, what is the specific thing about this newly launched Devialet Mania? Is it worth the price of 5,980 yuan? Let’s learn about it with Xiao Lei below.
configuration shrinks but is still strong
Devialet Mania's appearance still continues the modern and avant-garde design concept. The spherical shape covers the braided fabric, and the visual Push-Push woofer and unique co-ball design are retained, with a weight of 2.3kg alone. It has two colors: black and white, as well as the special version of the "Paris Opera" and is still a familiar flavor. body is equipped with 4 aluminum diaphragm full range audio units and 2 bass units, which can bring a 360-degree stereo sound experience. The built-in 3200mAh battery supports 10 hours of wireless playback, and supports two-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, Spotify Connect, AIrplay 2 connection methods.

product is equipped with ASC (active stereo calibration) technology and cross stereo architecture. With the help of four smart microphones on the body and a variety of built-in sensors, the speaker can automatically optimize audio rendering according to the environment. If the speaker is placed in the center of the room and there is no obstruction around it, the 360-degree stereo mode will be automatically turned on; when the speaker is placed against the wall, the two full-frequency speakers against the wall will blend and complement each other with the two speakers in the front, further enhancing the sound performance and stereo field, and enhancing the user's listening experience.
Devialet Mania Although the body is much smaller, it still has many patented technologies. It is equipped with Divare SAM (Speaker Active Matching) technology, allowing the speaker to maintain high-fidelity characteristics when processing transients and continuous signals, and better restore the details of the sound. In addition, Mania also has 30~20KHz frequency response , which has outstanding performance in both low and high frequencies. Although it is not inferior to the Phantom II, the price difference is 4,000 yuan, so it is not easy to perform like this.

Unfortunately, Divare's most famous ADH (analog digital hybrid amplification) technology has not appeared in this new product. It may be because the body is too small and it is really not stuffed in, or it may be due to cost considerations. Even so, it still has a 95 dB SPL sound intensity, which naturally cannot be compared with the Phantom II or Little Golden Egg, but as a portable Bluetooth speaker, it is really enough to have such performance. Considering the price difference between them, Mania is really worth buying, and friends who have the opportunity can experience it.
Of course, Devialet Mania is still much stronger than Huawei Sound X, after all, the price is only two or three times the difference. The former has many technical support for Divare, and you can enjoy a more innocent Divare flavor. However, the latter is equipped with many intelligent functions of Huawei, which is more playable and experience-oriented, and is also a very good choice.
The era of computing audio is coming in full swing
Divare has become famous in the past two years, but few people have known it before, the main reason is that this brand is too young. It was founded in 2007 and is like a child compared to other century-old brands. However, Divare has a very professional team and takes the technical route. Its independently developed ADH technology is regarded as a product that subverts the fever audio industry. It can provide strong thrust to the speaker while maintaining the original sound characteristics. With another set of self-developed algorithms, it can automatically match the parameters of different speakers and give appropriate power amplification. After the launch of the Divare amplifier equipped with ADH technology, many talents have discovered that the digital amplifier with high-tech support can reach such a high level.

From the rise of Divare, it was the first to enter the era of "computing audio" many years ago. In the past, many speaker products adjusted the sound before leaving the factory. Even if they were enhanced by the amplifier later, they only amplified their original sound characteristics, and generally did not change the original taste of this product. Due to the differences in tuning styles of different brands, different genres appear. Some focus on the shock of low frequencies, some pursue the clarity and restoration of vocals, and some focus more on high frequencies, etc.
However, with the continuous development of digital technology in recent years, semiconductor technology has become more and more refined, and speaker products have been equipped with digital processing chips, which can optimize the sound in real time and enhance the expressiveness of the sound. This is already particularly common in the field of Bluetooth headset . For example, Sony 's latest head-mounted noise reduction headset WH-1000XM5 is equipped with integrated processor V1 and HD noise reduction processor QN1, which can automatically detect and identify the environment you are in and match the most suitable noise reduction solution to achieve intelligent noise reduction.
A while ago, AirPods Pro 2 released by Apple is equipped with a new H2 chip. In addition to bringing stronger noise reduction, it also supports personalized audio. The headphones can be tuned according to the differences in each person's ear type, and combined with the new adaptive algorithm, you can get a more high-fidelity sound experience. In addition, Huawei FreeBuds Pro2 and Bose QuietComfort noise cancellation earbuds II are also equipped with similar personalized tuning functions, which are more focused on "thousands of people and thousands of ears". It can be seen that even if everyone buys the same headset, the experience they get is no longer the same. This is the charm of computing audio.

Audio and headphone technology have developed for hundreds of years. I believe that in order to improve the sound quality of the product, many acoustic brands and experts must explore various materials and acoustic structures. After such a long period of accumulation, speaker products have also touched bottlenecks, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to make another major breakthrough in the short term. Therefore, if you want to further improve the sound quality performance on such a high level, you need to introduce another dimension of technology, and computing audio was born.
Calculation of audio is equivalent to adding a brain to the headset or speaker, with a certain ability to think independently and judge, can analyze different usage scenarios and enhance the sound in different dimensions, so as to meet the actual needs of different users. Nowadays, more and more fields have begun to use "AI computing" technology, such as computing photography on mobile phones, autonomous driving on cars, etc. The development of AI and digital computing technology is constantly subverting traditional industries. Once you master cutting-edge digital technologies and algorithms, you may be like Divare, from an unknown small brand to an industry giant in an instant.
