Show a perfect sound ---- Voice Taurus MKII amp audition experience

Originally, I wanted to write about the combination of Vocal AURA LiC Vega and Taurus TAURUS MKIIMKII. As a result, the equipment borrowed and found that Vega was damaged during transportation. So talk about the voice of AURALiC TAURUS MKII.

 

The equipment is simple but not professional. Because there is no decent desktop player on the hand, the Astell & Kern AK380 is used as the audio source, and the fiber output is sent to the Cayin iDAC-6 decoder for output to the AURA LiC TAURUS MKII via Canon head balance.

 

thank!

I am very grateful to the big brothers of the Headset Club for their trust and care. As we all know, desktop equipment is expensive, volume and weight are moving, and some bile duct equipment is more delicate and scary. Therefore, there is usually no enterprise or media site willing to lend such equipment to ordinary fans, especially those of me who do not have much contact with large systems. I'm very fortunate to have a chance to hear this, and I'm grateful to your older brother! As of now, I only contacted CAYIN iDAC-11 and purchased the brand's iDAC-6 and iHA-6 kits (commonly known as the CAYIN 66 kit). Of course, CAYIN 66 suits me to write a lot of subjective senses with different earphones, but after all, there is little to play with such equipment, I worry about the lack of adequate comparison, speech is too subjective, it may also be the brand Negative influence, so the article has been hidden in the computer to eat gray. Let's get TAURUS MKII practice today, hahaha. Of course, the feelings in this article are still subjective. After all, the Taiwanese machine heard less.

 

Functional summary

The TAURUS MKII is an upgraded version of TAURUS. It is equipped with a newly developed ORFEO Class A output module with a powerful thrust of 1000mW (600ohm) to 4500mW (32ohm). With reference to the NEVE analog console design concept, it is possible to perfectly demonstrate the tone and style of the headphones. TAURUS MKII built-in acoustic rhyme audio tailor-made low-noise input circuit, achieving less than 3 microvolt output noise and more than 130 decibels of dynamic range, frequency response range of 3 ~ 300000Hz, 20 ~ 20000Hz, total harmonic distortion 0.002% . The TAURUS MKII captures and interprets the subtle signals of the sound accurately and contagiously.

 

Taurus TAURUS MKII front panel has a 6.35mm headphone jack, a four-pin balanced port. In addition, it has two function selection buttons for everyone to switch before the level, amp selection and balance, 3X single-ended input selection. The volume knob is very delicate, people can not help but to rotate and rotate, like Pong Mai-long skateboard shoes friction friction, I am sorry you should not think of such a tall device in front of such a LOW music. There rca single-ended analog input and output and balanced input and output.

sound

If you have to make a brief change to the voice of TAURUS MKII, I will choose to be sweet, delicate, clear, refined, and perfect . These words are mainly talked about with the Sennheiser HD800. I personally use this headset as a reference for this amp or for the sound evaluation of the overall set.

 

I also used the iron triangle W1000X to match it. The sound came out clearly and slightly thin. It lacked some firm and honest taste, but it was full of uniqueness. The low frequency gave me a very relaxed atmosphere and excellent strength. Of course, I personally tried to use the AK380 direct push, and the aune X7s thousand-class cost-effective A balance amp to match. The effect is that AK380 is the most balanced. Aune X7s with this headset, the overall sound style will look dry, this dry feeling more obvious, not that X7s is not good, but this headset is still quite high for the previous paragraph requirements.

 

Closer to home, said the echo rhyme AURALiC TAURUS MKII with W1000X, low-frequency has enough thickness and volume, which is indeed a lot better than the previous two before the match, W1000X's low-frequency flexibility in some songs performed very well, dive In terms of strength and intensity, if I use the CD to test it, it feels great to me. However, the details of the low frequencies are still significantly different from those of the HD800.

 

The vocals have just mentioned that clarity, the details of lips and saliva can be restored naturally, especially the female voice, the tooth sound is not harsh. Adding a bit of fascinating flavor, the same is true for strings such as guitars, and the thin, clear harmonics and details give people a particularly comfortable feeling.

 

The high frequency is very clean and clear. The sound field of the AURALiC TAURUS MKII seat is really not small, but listening with the W1000X is a bit weird. It feels like the X7s magnifies the sound field, and the sense of large atmosphere with strong sense of low-frequency and lack of thickness of the vocals is not equal to the HD800. In addition, the W1000X is enriched with information and density and is filled with ducks. The vocals sometimes become thicker. Thickness here does not refer to the sound ray, but some particles are somewhat similar to the distortion produced after signal amplification, and are less delicate. a feeling of. The vocal performance on the HD800 is much better.

 

Talk about the TAURUS MKII+HD800.

 

“ Sweetness” and “delicacy” refer to the feelings that most vocals and vocals convey to me. This combination can first allow me to immerse myself in music and not deliberately select audition songs to listen to. Therefore, it has become a good idea for my bedside in the past few days. It is necessary to use it when listening to music every night before going to bed. It was also these days that I randomly listened to a lot of pop, jazz and blues, and the Pavarotti TF card I got from an uncle. After all, it was limited to 1,000 worldwide.

Male and female voices give people a very natural, delicate and warm feeling. The vocal density and details are very thin to the ear, and there is almost no graininess or slight distortion in the former. Positioning is just right, and with a large and structured sound field, people can not stop. Even the Cantonese-language episodes of ancient doctors that I do not normally listen to can guarantee that they will not sing.

 

Of course, the exquisiteness of vocal expression is also reflected in the details and texture of instrumental music, as well as tri-band convergence and transition. This set of collocations is one of the most satisfying ones I have ever heard. If the string of the W1000X is particularly pleasant, it is caused by the thin sound style brought out by TAURUS MKII. The HD800's various musical instruments lack this style, but almost piano, guitar, violin, samba, or triangular iron, almost all give people a subtle sound expression.

 

"Clear" refers to the entire clean sounding floor as well as the fluent high frequency performance. The bottom of the TAURUS MKII is very clean. Of course, this cleanliness is also supported by every aspect of the AK380, the CAYIN iDAC-6 and the wire. The TAURUS MKII and HD800 also have an unconventional whole field experience. This also adds a bit of air to the original sonic treble. Bright without thorns! The good control of TAURUS MKII makes it hard for you to find glitches or high-frequency distortion of sounds. The harmonics of piano and other instruments are timely and comfortable, which is just right. I like Taurus very much for the processing and feedback of high-frequency details.

 

The word "exquisite" refers to the overall sound, from the regular sound field, accurate vocal and instrument positioning, and the correct vocal form of the human voice. These parts are carefully pieced together to form an overall sound, which is exquisite. Listening to a symphony can make people (let me) feel the clear position, sound and details of each instrument. If an amp does not have good control and enough "fine" sound, I believe the best headphones will not Give such a clear impression.

 

"To be perfect" is a very intuitive experience for me. With a headset like the HD800, with my current listening experience, I can't really find any obvious defects or deficiencies in the sound of this set.

 

With the HD800, talking about these twelve words, it is also a matter of the past few days. I know that there is no right to speak without comparison. Just like there was a chat with Zhiyintang and Laoyu once, when I talked about QUAD's tens of thousands of speakers, the sound was really good, and Lao Yu scorned me back, “That's what you listen to!” The equipment itself is like Wulin. Experts, there are mountains outside the mountains a day, I can only subjectively express what I feel most satisfied with the sound so far, I hope you old burn criticism.
