X-Mini II – Sunet dincolo de marime

admin — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 22:13:39 +0000

MP3-ul sau telefonul inteligent pe care l-ati achizitionat pentru Craciun este intradevar fantastic, dar cand ai apasat butonul de redare, nu se aude nimica clar, sau suficient de tare? De ce oare? Pentru ca nu are un difuzor de calitate, de aceea!

Sunetul X-mini II Capsule Speaker este incredibil! Tare si puternic, acest mic difuzor surprinde pe toata lumea cât de puternic suna. Este portabil si are reincarcare prin USB, astfel încât sa puteti sa il luati oriunde s-ar putea sa aveti nevoie de un sunet puternic si de calitate.

Aceste produse le puteti achizitiona chiar si din Romania, accesand linkurile de mai jos:

Doar invarte capsula si boxa se va extinde. Aceasta extindere este camera de rezonanta, marind sunetul basului chiar suficient de mult. Plus ca o încarcare complecta, se va putea rula pana la aproximativ 8 ore de muzica!

X-Mini Capsule este la a doua generatie si la o prima vedere, am fost curios daca intradevar sloganul lor: “Unbelievably Loud” este justificat. Oricum, înainte de a ajunge la acest punct sa acordam o scurta privire continutului pachetului.

Pachetul include: difuzor, un cablu USB cu un jack audio de 3,5 mm, o husa si un manual.

Capsula X-Mini II este mica, masurile fiind de 60mm × 60 mm × 44mm, cu un rezonator închis . Boxa este dotata cu o baterie pentru a oferi muzica “on-the-go”, o mufa jack de 3.5mm integrata , reglare volum si o boxa de 40 mm pentru a oferi un sunet incredibil de puternic.

Punerea in functiune a X-Mini II este de lucru la fel de usor ca a o scoate din cutie. Legati boxa la laptop sau orice alt dispozitiv la alegerea ta, porniti boxa si muzica ta va fi redata imediat.

Sloganul X-Mini este “Sunet dincolo de marime” (“Sound Beyond Size”) si de îndata ce am pornit X-Mini II, am inteles de ce sloganul lor este acesta. X-Mini II este incredibil de puternic pentru dimensiunile sale si acest lucru nu inseamna ca compromite din calitatea sunetului. Calitatea nu a fost cea mai buna, ci foarte buna!!!

Daca aveti nevoie de un pic de bas, rasuciti X-Mini II pentru a descoperi sistemul Bass System Xpansion. Bassul de iesire nu este la fel de puternic ca te-ai astepta, dar este evident un plus, deoarece se adauga la iesire audio globala, daca nu mai mult!

X-Mini II are, de asemenea, o iesire numita Buddy Jack. Buddy Jack nu este altceva decât un port suplimentar de 3.5 mm audio, care permite X-Mini II a se conecta la boxe audio conexe, adaugând în mod eficient intensitatii mai mult.

Asa cum am mentionat înainte, X-Mini II vine cu o baterie built-in. Compania producatoare sustine ca X-Mini II poate rula pâna la 11 ore pe baterie, dar eu am reusit aproximativ 8,5 ore de redare. Boxa poate fi incarcata prin intermediul cablului mini-USB din pachet.

Daca nu va puteti imagina marimea aceste boxe, iat-o langa o portocala si o mandarina.

Pentru a încheia aceast review, X-Mini II ofera o solutie unica si eleganta pentru cei care cauta o solutie audio decenta.
