| AKG has always been a well-known brand in the headset industry. Following the launch of the K3003 flagship iron headset seven years ago, this year's CES 2018 introduced the AKG N5005 flagship headset (official price: 8999 yuan) for many years. AKG iron powder, I see this in-ear new flagship, of course, will not miss it. As with Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic the world's top headphones manufacturers, in recent years by Samsung into its original core team From the start, the N5005 hitting the Hi-Res gold label was questioned by audiophiles, and lost the AKG of the core team, whether it could bring out the taste of AKG. We only knew about it. After that, AKG. N5005 rolled up a large number of headphones on the parameters, how the sound quality performance, see the following detailed evaluation.  AKG N5005 out of the box reviews: 'Feng Hou' accessories    In addition to the regular product information on the packaging, there is a CES 2018 Innovation Award certification mark in the upper left corner, Bluetooth and Hi-Res logo in the lower right corner, and the back of the box contains items and detailed parameters.  It can be seen on the box that the AKG N5005 is a 9.2-mm moving coil unit and four Knowles FH units. The five units are plugged into a small, positive headset, which can be said to be cleverly designed. The impedance of 18 ohms and the sensitivity of 116dB, and the frequency response range of 10Hz to 40kHz are used on smartphones, and there is no need to worry about pushing. Normally, iPhones can hear a moderate volume sound when they open half the sound. .  When the box was opened, it was easy to pull it out. AKG's design team put a lot of thought into it. Ventilation holes were designed on the side of the box. The experience of unpacking was perfect. Inside the black packaging, in addition to the words printed with N5005, There is also a famous map of the center of Vienna. This city, known as the "Music Capital of the World", is the birthplace of AKG.   The inside of the box is a double-layer design. All the accessories are neatly placed on it. The first layer contains a storage bag with an independent numbered nameplate. It can hold a Bluetooth headset cable, 3.5mm remote control and 4 pairs of filters. The device is designed to be just enough for a small size and can be put into a pant bag and a backpack.    The AKG N5005 headphone body is shown in white and gray under the flash. In fact, you can see that the object is similar to the N40 design. The scratch-resistant high-gloss black ceramic is used. The piano paint process looks very good, but it is also A fingerprint collector, forced friends need to pay more attention to cleanliness. Fortunately, cleaning is not difficult. Take a piece of glasses cloth to clean it.   The inner cavity uses a skin-like matte design and feels good. It also has 5005 and N series logos. The left and right logos are separated by blue and red colors in addition to letters, even if they do not understand English. , Also according to the color to insert the line, easy to understand. The wiring interface is used MMCX interface, Shure, UE and Weston are such interfaces, fans who want to upgrade the wire do not have to worry about the interface is not universal.   The AKG N5005 also has a replaceable filter design like the K3003. It also has a pair of IF enhancement filters over the K3003. The other three tuning trends are low-frequency enhancement, reference-level sound and high-frequency enhancement. The principle is to use different Damper to weaken the frequency band, to achieve the effect of increasing the specific frequency band, perhaps many people have doubts about this thing is really useful, in fact, in the detailed evaluation later, the effect is indeed very obvious, there is no very strange frequency band Outstanding problem. This filter can be removed and installed by rotation. This design is very strong.  The bottom layer of the box is earplugs of various sizes and materials. It is equipped with 4 pairs of black silicone sleeves and 3 pairs of AKG's exclusive SpinFit white translucent silicone earplug sleeves. I am more inclined to wear the SpinFit when wearing it. Sense, perhaps many people do not like this legendary SF sets, relatively dark silicone sleeve will cut a little low frequency, but it is also depends on personal habits.   AKG N5005 is equipped with three different specifications of the headset cable, 3.5mm line also has a headset wire control, Android and Apple a key switch, compatibility is very strong, there is a 2.5mm balanced interface, can be a good balance Most fever users.   In addition to aircraft adapters, charging cords, and cleaning brushes, one of my favorite accessories is the Bluetooth remote control. Now that many smart phones have cut off the 3.5mm headphone jack, the songs have to carry a small tail, very inconvenient. , also gave birth to the development of a lot of Bluetooth headsets, AKG is also aware of this wireless trend, the standard Bluetooth cable is already very conscience. This is a Bluetooth 4.1 headset cable, support aptX and AAC lossless encoding and decoding Transmission, built-in battery module can maintain up to 8 hours of battery life, and supports fast charging, charging 15 minutes, listening to songs for 1 hour, occasionally used in daily life, can use two or three days is completely no problem, usually large Most are listening when walking out. Wearing experience: soft wire, good fit  Let's talk about the standard AKG N5005 wire. Both 3.5mm and 2.5mm are made of twisted braid. The softness of the wire is very good. The length of the wire is about 1.2m. Then the length of the mobile phone or player is very moderate. The sensation test will be based on 3.5mm. The weight of only 11.4g will reduce the burden on the ear, and it will be less weight-bearing when worn for a long time. The stethoscope effect is also less obvious.  This headset still use MMCX connector, compatible with many brands of headphones wire, blessings like to upgrade the fever wire blessing. Nowadays the headset is generally changing the line into the wind, some fixed-line headsets are burned to find ways to change the line, AKG N5005 uses Changeable design, MMCX universal interface, could not help but boast again.  In terms of wear, the ear-type design is adopted in the same way as the AKG N40. Even the earphones in my ears are suffixed with the S-size SF ear-plugs. It is still very comfortable to wear, and the ear canal is not squeezed and is not worn. Time will not be difficult. At the same time, it can also play a certain degree of sound insulation. In a noisy environment, the sound insulation effect is quite obvious. If you use a medium or large ear plug, you can only plug it outside the ear canal, and the sound insulation effect is not so good. .  What are the characteristics of the two earplugs on the N5005? The SpinFit silicone earbuds are much longer than the black silicone earbuds, and it is best known for 'turning', saying that the silicone sleeves can go deeper into the inside of the ear canal. The soundproofing performance is much better than the black silicone earplug sleeve, but it will weaken the low frequency of the sound, and the high frequency will be relatively high, so I will choose to use the enhanced low frequency or enhanced intermediate frequency to balance the sound when using the filter. Listening comment: The inherited taste is preserved  Having said so much, can the N5005 become the new flagship after the K3003? I mainly use the HIDIZS AP200 player as the audio source, use the 3.5mm interface cable, replace the reference-level sound filter, and perform a test on the AKG N5005. A detailed analysis of the sense of hearing. Follow-up will use a Bluetooth cable to make a simple comment. Although the iPhone and a few smartphones still do not support aptX's lossless decoding output, this popularity will take some time, but there will still be some sound quality. Loss, listening to streaming music can be ignored.  Listen first to pop music, Tian Hao's “Loved a Long Time Friend,” and the prelude to the orchestral music sounds comfortable on the N5005. The high frequency is smooth and not harsh. The resolution is very high, and each instrument can hear clearly. The positioning is quite accurate, and it can be described with ease. After entering the vocal, the tooth sound is not very serious, the high frequency is a little thin, the sensation is sharp, it is not very close to the ears, the distance is just right, if you like people If you are in front of you, put on a filter that enhances the high frequency. Perhaps it is the feeling you want. Then drums and bass sound. The low frequencies, especially the low drums, perform well. The volume is very plentiful and solid. Dynamic It is full and flexible. After putting filters that enhance the low frequencies, the feeling will be more pronounced. It will be a little dizzy compared to the high frequencies. The intermediate frequency will not cause any bad changes. Use N5005 to listen to the song as a whole. Very balanced, broad lateral sound field, tri-band performance balance, listening to pop songs is no pressure. For a folk song of Song Liye’s “Lily Ann,” I simply talk about the vocals. Song Dongye sings the vocal range of the male bass. It is a bit dry on the vocal performance. It is not dense and lacks some thickness. The 2.5mm balance line may be improved. In the last song of the song, the combination of the two vocals can be said to be seamless, not very open, it will not stick together, and it will be quite accurate. Maybe The charm of folk songs coupled with the interpretation of the N5005. After I listened to the sound of music, the detail was in place. The bass area of the piano was unambiguous. Each stroke was very clear, and it brought emotions to the listener.  Since the sound field of the AKG N5005 is very open, let's listen to my favorite song, "Two Moons" from Toe. As a pure music class, the atmosphere is more important. The guitar is played at the beginning and it is wiped when the slide is played. The strings are all clearly visible, and closing your eyes is like someone is playing in front of you. The few harmonics of the guitar are very transparent. It feels like it's coming out. The whole song has a strong sense of three-dimensionality. It is also very good. The drums are full and full. The bass sound at low frequencies is very clean. It doesn't conflict at all. Many of the instruments in the chorus are sounding. It sounds like all the instrumental music is very structured. The work division cooperates to play the piece perfectly. It is a million-dollar ring-iron headphones that can cope with different styles and handle sounds with ease.  Listening to some songs with the Bluetooth headset cable will cause some lack of resolution. The bandwidth of Bluetooth itself is limited. There will be differences between the processing and the cable. The sound quality is still good, the overall feeling will be a little popular, the vocal brilliance The feeling is not so good, it sounds comfortable. The difference with other Bluetooth headsets is that in the boot state, N5005 does not have the kind of current sound, the noise control is very good. I think this Bluetooth headset line is in line with Songs for daily life needs.  In general, the N5005's low-frequency transient response is relatively fast, the sound is quite solid, there is no ambiguity, there is no feeling of dragging, and the mid-frequency has a good sound density, with AKG's consistent tuning style. IF listening classical symphony will be very good, in the preparation of the song, its excellent air and sound field without headphones, it is difficult to imagine these sounds will come from such small headphones. N5005 wide horizontal sound field, The distribution of each part is even, the sound is clearly structured, and the sense of depth is good. The crossover point is also handled very well. There is no noticeable pit or abruptness. It is a headphone with very good listening tolerance, quite omnivorous. . PConline evaluation room summary  Following the AKG K3003, the enhancement of the N5005 is indeed very obvious. The performance of each band is remarkable, and the accessories are extremely rich. The three headphone cables plus four pairs of filters can be suitable for listeners of different styles, and can also be replaced by wires. Its compatibility is very strong, but its 8999 pricing is indeed a great pressure for some ordinary consumers, and some high-end custom enthusiasts can choose other brands of headphones at this price point. However, the quality of N5005 is still very high The combination of the dynamic low-frequency impact and dynamic iron high-frequency performance, took over the K3003's flagship name is well deserved. |
