Enjoy the chant of Eros - EROS hifi player experience evaluation

Having music is enough for one's life, but it is not enough to embrace music for a limited life.

——— Rachmaninoff

Music seems to be priceless. There will never be extreme hardware, delicate and difficult software, and it will take time to taste the music.


Music seems to be priceless. Even if it is left on the streets, it cannot deprive music lovers of their pursuit and rights.

This time I had the opportunity to experience EROS, a HIFI player called Eros, and as the Patriots have been devoted to, we will remove Tianzhu from the priceless altar and share music and love with everyone who loves music.

The configuration of EROS is still quite satisfactory, and the price/performance ratio is quite high. Thrust can meet 3000 high-impedance headphones, and the built-in 3000 mA lithium battery can guarantee about 10 hours of battery life.

EROS is packaged in a black kraft carton. The logo is stamped on the carton. It is very textured, but the overall package is not marked with other parameters. It may be a non-retail package.

Open the cover, a semi-transparent protection paper, printed with a sense of design EROS badge, the main body of the product is faintly visible.

EROS and the bundled leather case lie quietly in the tray.

The entire packaging structure is similar to the iphone package. The first layer is the product main body, the second layer is a paper attachment, and the third layer is a peripheral attachment.

All attachments are: EROS main body, leather case, 8G TF card, power adapter, USB data cable, quick use manual, instruction manual, three packs of voucher, certificate of conformity.

EROS adopts all-metal body design, middle frame oxidation blackening process, heavy feel, classic function keys + dial operation mode, equipped with a 2.5-inch, 320240 TFT screen.

The right side is equipped with a knob-type volume adjustment with protection, which is also widely used in the HIFI player. The power button/HOLD integrated design can avoid misoperation. The double TF card slot design ensures the storage capacity, but the bonus The 8G is too small for a HIFI player.

The lower end is equipped with a digital/analog output, a micro USB port, and an AUX 3.5 headphone port, and the output is quite rich, meeting most of the output requirements.

The back adopts acrylic material panel, printed with EROS badges and basic product parameter information. It is recommended that the official post-attached foil, otherwise it is prone to scratches.

The official is very kind and equipped with a leather holster. The style is also very texture, so the port can be connected without hindrance.

The leather case and the px450 are still relatively matched, but in addition to the volume adjustment, all the function keys are covered in the holster and cannot be operated, so it is recommended that the official can launch the silicone sleeve or use a clamshell holster design.

EROS's operation method is very simple. Basically, it is not necessary to use the operation guide to get started. It is worth mentioning that the dial is very close to the setting of the scale, a half circle of about 12 songs, to facilitate users to more efficient cut songs.

The EROS UI is now slightly older in terms of digital product aesthetics, and its functional categories are more popular. Tracks can be categorized by album, artist, style, folder, and collection. Songs are listed in a list format. The playback interface supports Custom album images and lyrics display, as long as the same directory with the file name on it, Virgo users can toss.

EROS system settings are also commonly used settings, can be digital / analog switching output, volume adjustment can be divided into 64-160 levels, effectively prevent the volume of the headshot of misuse, it is worth mentioning that EROS can automatically identify the impedance of the inserted headphones and Make gains.

EROS playback settings can be customized loop mode, sound eq, etc., to meet most of the needs of users.

EROS supports the USB DAC function, the mac system can be used seamlessly without installing a driver, and you can enjoy a large amount of tracks on your hard drive.


Listening part, this time do not use a single music to comment, I always think that the audio system involves too many elements, software, playback source, front-end headphones, and even the mood can hear and feel, great subjective sense of hearing May mislead the user, only a simple evaluation of his tone orientation, listening to Tsai Chin, Tong Li and other famous songs that can be felt EROS sound is thicker, warmer, bass is very flexible, but the dive and volume is not Especially in the color, the resolution is still good, can hear much more details than the ipc, mbp push, the entire style belongs to the golden mean, it should be said that can easily deal with most of the user's listening hobby, but for some Not the best, only better audiophiles, or special listening preferences, may need different front-end headphones, hifi players with special orientation.

Here are a few suggestions for the small experience that EROS feels for a few days:

1) The sense of damping on the turntable is too small, the sense of passage is too small, and the play button feels soft.

2) The volume control knob has a low damping effect and several times it accidentally touches and jumps out of the volume adjustment interface.

3) The system UI is too old. It is too black. But it looks rough. Can you think of pure white ui skin? The icon can also be designed in some flat style.

4) Does not support dsd, in fact, under the premise of limited equipment, it is not necessarily able to realize the jumping sense of hearing differences, but some people still tangled high-end hifi player how can the lack of dsd.

5) The transparent acrylic of the LCD screen does not seem to even have anti-abrasion coating, including the back cover, and it is easy to wipe off the marks. It is recommended that the official donated a protective film.

6) Leather case is not easy to operate.

Of course there is no perfect product on the market. Little experience is not enough to obscure the light of EROS. As the first HiFi player of Patriots, the quality and quality of EROS hardware and software have not been worse than the market. The product also believes that through the firmware upgrade and the small optimization of the architecture, EROS can bring a better experience.

Finally, thanks to the Patriots, gave me the opportunity to experience this charming HIFI player, just like the warm tone of EROS, to accompany me and listen to the chant of Eros.
