Ukhangeleka kwiClassic, Ngokuqinisekileyo. Isandi Sokuqala?
Isithethi se - SMS yesibhengezo se -Benchmark sinomzimba ongaqhelekanga. Inkampani iyaziwa ngabaguquleli be-digital-to-analog esebenza ngokuphezulu, kodwa yandisa umgca wayo. Yongeza i-AHB2, umbane wokuqala wamandla ukusebenzisa i-THX ye-AAA yonke i-analog, iteknoloji yokukhulisa i-high-efficiency, kwaye yaqalisa isithethi sayo sokuqala, iSMS1.
I-SMS1 ibonisa intsebenziswano phakathi kweBenmark kunye nomyili wesithethi uDavid Macpherson, umdali we-Studio Umgca wombane wezinto ezihlelwe kakuhle, izithethi ze-retro idiosyncratically and amps. Yindlela yokwenza izinto ezimbini egcina ngokubukeka kwe-retro, nangona ityun down kancane ifaniswa ne-Studio Electric line line. U-Macpherson uthe isithethi esifana nesimo sobunjineli kwindlela yokubeka i-monitor yeendlela ezimbini, kodwa iinjineli zeBenmark zamnceda ukuba ahlaziye ulungelelaniso lwesiphaluka kunye nokufumana ukunyamezela kunokuba angazimela.

UBhenkmark SMS1: Izixhobo kunye neenkcukacha
• I-woofer ye-polymer ye-poly-6.5
• I-1-intshi yengubo ye-tomeer tweeter
Izithuba ezihlanu zokubopha kunye nejeti ye-Neutrik Speakon yokuxhamla isithethi
• umtshini / ukutshintsha okuqhelekileyo
• ama-mahogany okanye i-paduk amacandelo amacandelo atholakalayo ngeendleko ezongeziweyo ngebini
• 13.5 x 10.75 x 9.87 kwi / 345 x 270 x 145 mm (hwd) • 23 lbs / 10.4 kg nganye
I-SMS1 yinto engavamile kwinto yokumiswa kwe-acoustic (ibhokisi elitywinwe). Uninzi lwezivakalisi zisebenzisa izibuko, eziqhelekileyo zithetha ukuba iimpendulo zabo zithe gqolo kodwa ziyancipha kwi-24 dB / octave ephantsi kwebhokisi. Iimpawu zokumiswa kwe-acoustic ayifuni ukuhamba ngokujulile, kodwa zihamba ngokuzithoba ngobuncinane kwi-bass, kwi-12 dB / octave. Ama-audiophiles amaninzi acinga ukuba izithethi zokumisa isikhankaso zizisa iingubo ezingcono zengqondo kunye ne-punch kunezikhulumi eziphathekayo. Enyanisweni, ndandisoloko ndingumntu onzima wokumiswa, nangona ndandenza uxolo lwam kunye namachweba.
Kwakungavamile ukuba i-neutrik Speakon i-jack yokufakelwa isitayela esifanelekileyo, okufuneka ukuyisebenzise ukuba ufuna ukubiza i-biwire okanye i-SMS1. Musa ukukhathazeka, kusekho isiseko esiqhelekileyo sezithuba zokubopha ongasisebenzisa; awukwazi nje ukwenza i-biwire okanye i-biamp kunye nabo. Umtshintshintsho utshintsha isithethi kwi-wiring yesiqhelo kwimodi ye-biwire / ye-biamp. I-BTW, imodeli ye-biwire / biamp ikuvumela ukuba wenze udibaniso oluhlukileyo kumqhubi ngamnye, olungelona lukhulu kodwa ama-audiophiles amaninzi aziva ukuba anokufumana inzuzo ethile.
I-grilles zetsimbi zibukeka zipholile kwaye zinzima kunokuba zithande okanye zenziwe nge-metal grille. Unokufunda ngemiphumo yale grikhi kwisandi kumacandelo omlinganiselo wokuhlaziywa.
Ndasebenzisa i-SMS1 ngokukodwa kwindlela yam eqhelekileyo, kuquka ne-Krell S-300i ehlanganisiweyo ampwetyiswa ngu-Sony PHA-2 DAC / umakhalekhukhwini. Kamva, ndayisebenzisa kunye ne-Kample ye-Illusion entsha kunye ne-Solo 375 i-monoblock amps. Ndandiphulaphule kunye kunye nokucima; Ukwahlukana kwakuzwakala, kodwa akakwazanga ukugqiba oko ndakukhethayo; isandi mhlawumbi sibe neenwele ecaleni elimnyama kunye ne-grille, kunye neenwele ecaleni elikhanyayo ngaphandle. Ngoko ndawashiya kuba izithethi zibukeka zihle kakhulu kubo.

UBhenkmark SMS1: Ukusebenza
Kwimi, ukuphonononga izithethi kufana nokuthandana kwikhompyutha. Kungakhathaliseki ukuba ungayifunda kwangaphambili kwiwebhusayithi, awukwazi ukutshilo oko uza kufikelela uze udibane nalo mntu. Kwaye into yokuqala oyiqaphelayo yimpembelelo ecacileyo.
Emva nje kwemizuzu emibini yeTrasher Dream Trio , i-albhamu ye-jazz eyayinomculi uGerry Gibbs, i-pianist uKenny Barron kunye ne-bassist uRon Carter, ndaqonda, "Ndiyonwabele ngokwenene!" Andizange ndive naluphi na uhlobo lweentsilelo eziya kuphazamisa okanye zidimaze xa kuqala "intlanganiso" isithethi. Akukho "imizobo ebonakalayo" ebonakalayo evela kwi-woofer. Akukho bhoom kwi-bass. Ayikho impazamo enkulu yokuphendula imvama. Akukho phesheya, i-grit, i-glare okanye ingqolowa. Izwi elihle ngokwenene.
Uninzi lwezivakalisi luhlobo olunjani lokubetha phezu kwentloko kunye nokucinga kunye nesandi somsindo, njengokungathi ukhala, " HEY! NDIXAXA LAPHA! " Zininzi zee-audiophile ezinje, kodwa njengoko ndafunda ekufundeni umsebenzi weStereophile umsunguli uGordon Holt, xa ulaphule kwaye ungene ngaphakathi kulo mdlalo wokuzonwabisa, uxabisa ngakumbi i-tonality efanelekileyo kunokuba ubonakaliswe yi-sonic. Kwaye, ukucinga ngombono we-SMS kwi-Dream Trio's translation of "Ndixelele Ibali leBhede" lizwakala kakuhle. Ndakuva zonke izixhobo ezicatshulwa ngokucacileyo phakathi kwezi zibini zithethi, kunye ncinane ukuya ngaphandle kwezithethi, kodwa kungekho ngendlela eyaziqwalasela yona. Ndinegubhi yeGibbs yandalala ngaphaya kwe-7 ububanzi bomzi wendawo yam yokuhlala - njengento yokudlala yidrama yangempela - kunye nepiyano enkulu yeBarron eselulela ngaphesheya. Ndiza kuvala amehlo ndize ndibonise idrubli nganye kwikiti. Kodwa andizange ndicinge " WOW !" Ndandithanda nje isandi, akuzange nanini ndiphazanyiswe ngephutha okanye kwimiba yezithethi.
Ndicinga ukuba " WOW !" xa ndibeka kwiToto "Rosanna," kuba ezininzi izithethi zityhila iimpazamo zabo ngokukhawuleza kule nqaku kodwa iSMS1 ayizange. Kwakubonakala kunamandla kwaye kucacile, ngaphandle kokuphazamiseka okanye umbala ocacileyo. Namazwi ekurekhodeni, athambekele ekugqibeleni kwi-blogger eyodwa, ezwakala ngokugqithiseleyo ukuba ndikwazi ukubona indawo yegama ngalinye "Akukho nonyaka ukususela ekubeni uhambe ....". Ukuba ngu-6.5 intshi ezimbini, i-SMS1 yayingenako ukukwazi ukudlala amanqaku aphantsi kakhulu ukusuka kwisiginja esezantsi kunye nekrele lokukhaba kunye negunya langempela, ngoko isandi sale rekhodi esinyameko sasibonakala siqaqambile. Kodwa andinakukwazi ukuthetha ngesithethi esineendlela ezimbini ezingabonakali ukukhanya okukhawuleza kule ngoma. Iibhasi zininzi zokukhaba, nangona kunjalo; i-woofers yayingenayo ingxaki ekugqibeleni iidrawu zokukhaba kunye namanqaku kagesi e-Mötley Crüe "iKickstart My Heart" ephezulu.
Ngaphandle mhlawumbi kwimiqulu yokupopu enkulu, i-SMS1 inomsindo omncinane ongafuni ukuyibiza ngokuthi "mnyama," kodwa uninzi ... i-chocolatey? (Ewe, ndiyazi: U-Julian Hirsch waguqulela engcwabeni lakhe. Uxolo.) Ngandlela-thile xa uphulaphule iLarry Coryell noFiliph's acoustic guitar album ye- Twin House , ndineenkcukacha ezininzi kodwa akukho nto ebalulekileyo kunye nokukhanya okuvame ukuyenza kufuneka ndijike ivolumu xa ndiphulaphule le rekhodi.
Ndabona isicatshulwa esisodwa ukuba ndibiza umbala: i-wrinkle encinci kwimpendulo engezantsi ezenza ukuba ilizwi lizwakala ngokugqithisileyo ligxininiswe kwaye lucacile, nokuba lincinci lincinane. Ndakuva oku emibini yamathandwayo amathandayo : uHolly Cole "UQeqesho lweNgoma" kunye neJachard Taylor eguqukileyo ye-"Shower the People." Andikwazi ukutsho ukuba ndiphazamise okanye ndikhathazeke, kodwa kubalulekile ukuba uqaphele ukuba ufuna ezinye iinkcukacha zeSinatra ngokugqithiseleyo kwimiba yezwi.
Nabani na omele athengiswe ngesizathu sokuba i-audio-end-audio endleko ihlawulwe ixabiso liyakuthi liqinisekiswe ukuba liva i-saxophonist i-Gene Ammons yokurekhoda ye "But Beautiful" ngeSMS1. Ufumana uguqulelo oluvuthayo olusondeleyo lwe-Ammons, enkulu yesandi; ukubonakaliswa kweedrama kunye nepiyano ezizwakalayo zichanileyo kwaye zinengqiqo ngaphandle kokuzwakala-ingqiqo, kunye nemvelo yengqondo ekhuphayo ngaphandle kokuzama ukukhangela.

UBhenkmark SMS1: Imilinganiselo
Le tshathi ibonisa impendulo yempendulo ye-SMS1 kwi-axis (ulandelelwano lwe-blue) kunye nomyinge weempendulo kwi-0 °, ± 10 °, ± 20 ° kunye no-± 30 ° ngokulandelana (ulandelelwano oluhlaza). I-flatter kunye nengaphezulu kakhulu le miqolo ibonakala, bhetele isithethi sisoloko sikhona.
Oku akusiyo impendulo yangempela , kodwa ukuba ukhangele ngokukhawuleza ungabona izinto ezintle ziqhubeka apha. Ukususela kwi-200 Hz ukuya ku-2.2 kHz, impendulo ifuphi kakhulu nepatile efile, icetyisa ukuba esi sithethi sinomjikelezo ogqithiseleyo-kunye ne-midrange ibanga elibaluleke kakhulu kuba yilapho iphimbo lihlala khona. Ukunciphisa okuncinci kancinci kwi-3.4 kHz kunokubonakala kunkwantya kodwa akunakwenzeka ukuba kuvezwe kakhulu ngenxa yenkcazelo. Yintoni enokuvakalayo ukuba impendulo ye-tweeter yehla malunga ne--2 dB ukusuka kwi-2.3 ukuya ku-9.5 kHz. Ingqungquthela ebanzi, enobubele kunye nobumnandi obunokuthi ingabonakali njengemibala engaphezulu, kodwa mhlawumbi iya kunika i-SMS-1 isandi esincinane. Impendulo ye-off-axis iyinto enhle kakhulu, kunye ne-roll-off encinane engaphantsi kwe-10 kHz kwaye akukho zidibansi ezibonakalayo ezibonisa ukuba uhamba ± 30 °. I-metal grille enkulu yenza ukubahluko phakathi kwempendulo, ngokugqithiseleyo ukuwa kwempembelelo malunga ne--1.5 dB phakathi kwe-4 ne-5 kHz, kunye nokudibanisa okulinganayo kwi-10 kHz kunye ne-8 kHz.
Umyinge wee-7 ohms kunye ne-dips ukuya kwi-3.0 ohms / -11 ° yesigaba kwi-122 Hz. Ngoko impedance yesilinganiso ayikho ingxaki, kodwa ukuba udibanisa esi sithethi kumancinci omncinci kwaye ufumana ibinki enamandla okanye igitala okanye isigubhu esichukumisa malunga ne-120 Hz, kunokubangela ukuba i-amp ivalwe. Kodwa ngokungqongqo - ngaba uya kudibanisa isithethi esabizayo kwi-amp amp? I-Anechoic i-834 dB ye-sensitivity measures kwi-1 watt / 1 imitha, ngoko ubeke kwindawo ethile malunga ne-86 dB kwi-room. Oku kungaphantsi kwezantsi: Uzakufuna ama-watts angama-32 ukuwa ku-101 dB; Ndiya kuncoma ubuncinane ama-watts ama-50 kwiseshini kwaye mhlawumbi i-100.
Ndalinganisa i-SMS1 kunye nomcwaningi wam Clio 10 FW kunye nemakrofoni ye-MIC-01, kumgama weemitha ezili-1 ngaphaya kweemitha ezi-2 ngamanki kwi-axis ye-center axis; umlinganiselo ongaphantsi kwama-240 Hz uthathwe ngokuvala-miking i-woofer.

I-Benchmark SMS1: I-Final Take
Izithethi zeendlela ezimbini zinzima ukuyila; Njengoko ndibhale kwenye indawo, kunzima ukufumana impendulo engcono (efuna i-woofer enkulu) ngelixa ufumana ukudibanisa okukhawulezayo phakathi kwe-tweeter kunye ne-woofer (efuna i-woofer encinci). Kodwa ndiyakwazi ukuthetha ngokunyanisekileyo ukuba ndakuvuyela ukuphulaphula i-SMS1. Ukuba ukhangele isithethi esiphezulu se-bookshelf - okanye mhlawumbi nje kwisithethi esihle, ixesha - kufuneka unike lo mamela. Ndicinga ukuba uya kuqonda, njengoko ndenzayo, ukuba emva kokuqala kweengoma, utyhulwa ngaphandle kwendlela ekhangayo ngayo, kodwa kulungile kangakanani.
