[Introduction]
Since a new life has come to my home, I haven’t used speaker products for 2 years. The main reason is to not disturb my children. After all, I am too young and need a quiet environment to allow my children to grow up healthily. So in the past two years, my computer has only been plugged in with headphones and enjoying myself. Emmm, my daughter has been sent to her parents' home recently, and I guess she will stay there for a year and a half. Suddenly, I feel that life has become much easier and I have more time to watch TV shows and play games! But as summer is coming, I really don’t want to use my headphones anymore~ I saw the great speaker event and came to try it out. I never expected to win the jackpot! Alright, let’s calm down and talk to you about this innovative 2.1 speaker .
[Unboxing and appearance]
originally thought it was a huge box, but in fact it was much smaller than expected. The basic internal security measures were still done well, but the outer packaging was a little deformed.
Objects in the box:
1, innovative Pebble Plus subwoofer
2, two satellite speakers
3, manual warranty card
0 Innovative Pebble Plus's satellite speaker is two hemispheres, as if a slope is cut off from a sphere, and then a 2-inch full-frequency speaker is installed inside. The outer shell of the satellite speaker is engineering plastic, and the "cut surface" around the speaker is polished, which improves the visual texture , but the problem is that it is easier to accumulate dust. A volume + power switch is installed on the section of the right unit of
. The switch is close to you and is very convenient to use.
All cables are fixed to the satellite box and cannot be disassembled. They look a bit messy, but in fact there are only three wires: subwoofer cable, USB power supply cable and AUX cable.
from left to right are: subwoofer cable, AUX cable and USB power supply cable. It should be noted that the innovative Pebble Plus USB cable only serves as a power supply and cannot be used as a digital input! In addition, there is no charger provided in the product. In fact, users can use a 5V-1A or 2A charger to make it work normally. Or if you have a USB plug, you can plug it in and use it directly.
There is a gain switch on the chassis of the right satellite box, which can be selected from the high and low gears, and the maximum output power is 8W (the maximum power of a single speaker). Although the output power is not high, don't forget that it only costs 249 yuan. Foreign media commented that it is the 2.1 box with the best sound quality within US$40, so the lower power is exchanged for powerful distortion control. I will talk to you in detail below.
The innovative Pebble Plus subwoofer is not big, and you may even feel that the actual object is much smaller than expected. There is a gun line plug behind it, and the subwoofer is designed under the box, with the foot pad at the bottom relatively high, which is to make the airflow when low frequency occurs more fully.
is about to be tested on the computer. Here you must introduce your own audio equipment. If you only have a computer, then direct pushing with an onboard sound card is the only way, but in terms of sound quality, your onboard sound card quality plays a decisive role. I am not planning to use a computer to push it directly, but I connected the analogage Lute decoded headamper all-in-one machine behind the computer, but this all-in-one machine only has RCA output, so the innovative Pebble Plus cannot be connected. Here I will introduce you a good thing: Green RCA to 3.5 female adapter cable, which is 15 yuan! With this little thing, the innovative Pebble Plus can be perfectly compatible!
[On-computer picture appreciation]
My computer environment is relatively poor, so everyone will take a look~, my desktop is very long, but it is very narrow, and the small subwoofer is still harmonious on the table, and the smaller satellite speakers will not take up too much space on the table. For me personally, the size of the innovative Pebble Plus is very suitable.
[Subjective experience of sound]
First, let’s talk about the experience of innovative Pebble Plus in playing games. Like LOL, the requirements for listening to sound and position recognition are not high. The main highlight of innovative Pebble Plus is that the dyeing effect of is very eye-catching . Although the subwoofer is not large in size and its energy sense is not as good as those larger, I think it is just right. It will give you the low-frequency atmosphere that should be there. The bursting feeling in the battle scene will burst into as long as it is opened to a certain loudness! The separation between dubbing and music is also remarkable, and there is no such stuffy and mushy feeling on the low-end box. If you change to another game " Call of Duty OL", the effect of listening to the sound will be revealed. The direction of the character's footsteps is very clear, the footsteps are crisp and transparent, and it is more prominent. The bursting sense of the battle scene is still very good. The rendering of the game soundtrack of also has the flavor of in cinema . It is hard for me to imagine that a box worth more than 200 yuan can have such an effect, and I instantly planted ...
Since I just experienced the feeling in the movie theater in the game, I now use it to play a movie " Superman 2". The bursting feeling of the audio is still remarkable. The vocal dubbing part of is very mellow and pure, and it is still an excellent separation degree. Although the depth of the low frequency diving is not as good as the real theater effect, the direction of the taste is consistent, and the effect of the low frequency to set off the scene can be satisfactory. In fact, the placement of my subwoofer is not scientific (I put it on the left side of the monitor), so the left ear will receive a little more energy sense of low frequency, so the left and right ears are a little bit unbalanced enough. If your space environment allows, it is recommended to place it behind the monitor or in the middle of the monitor under the desk. The box of
2.1 is never the best choice for listening to music. I listened to a few songs with Xiami Music, and that's true. I think the main problem is that no matter where the subwoofer is placed, the low frequency and medium and high frequency will always have a "disconnection" feeling, but the innovative Pebble Plus also has its advantages. The aforementioned article said that the innovative Pebble Plus is not very powerful, but the highlight of is that the distortion control is very excellent. No matter how loud it is, it does not show a broken . This manifestation is very, very rare in a box worth more than 200 yuan! No wonder foreign media have such a high evaluation of it, and it is indeed two tricks! As for the problem of low-frequency disconnection mentioned just now, Emmm, I think most of them can actually accept it as long as you are not an enthusiast.
[Summary]
Innovation Pebble Plus is priced at 249 yuan. In fact, I was still paying attention to the price during the time I first went on the market, and the price was about 199 yuan. After a period of experience, I think the comprehensive performance of the innovative Pebble Plus is still very eye-catching. Even though the price has returned to the original price, I still think it is worth the money. The miniaturized size is more suitable for players with cramped space. The comprehensive performance of the sound is also excellent. It should be said that at this price of 200 yuan, there is basically nothing else in the 2.1 box. Of course, I am full of more expectations for its future, such as being able to realize digital input, add RGB or THX, etc. Innovation is a famous acoustic brand. I believe that the future will definitely bring us more surprises!
