# The first spot of the site # Small but live well, Sony Sony HT-MT500 2.1 speaker experience

For a music enthusiast, the first thing to get home from work is surely to open the music to relax, then listen to the song to do housework, make dinner, play mobile phones, and exercise. And for a small apartment like us, which can't afford a big house, the easiest way to realize this desire is to purchase a whispering wall product, which can be used as an external speaker for a TV, or can be connected to a Bluetooth mobile phone alone, to play the mobile phone. App's music serves two purposes. Looking at Sony's audio coverage at this year's CES show, it began to assume that Sony was mistaken. Such small HT-MT300 and HT-MT500 are the flagship products this year? ?

After reading the introduction, it was discovered that these two new products are mainly spatial, so that small houses also have good sound effects. The main difference between the HT-MT300 and the HT-MT500 is that the 1.HT-MT500 amplifier is better and the sound quality is better. 2. The HT-MT500 supports multiple lossless audio formats such as FLAC, DSD, etc. After waiting a few moments, he finally chose the HT-MT500 in one step.

The packaging of the HT-MT500 was very simple, and it was easy to take out the whispering wall and subwoofer. We have to say that this pair is really small in home theater.

The size of the whispering gallery is 50cm wide and it does not take up space on the TV cabinet.

The top of the whispering gallery uses cortical material.

The top also serves as the operating area for the speakers, which allows you to switch the speaker's input source, volume adjustment, and power switch.

The front of the whispering gallery made a metal mesh cover to wrap the horn. The overall look is still very mellow.

There is a 45mm full-range Hi-Res loudspeaker on the right and left of the whispering gallery. It consists of powerful neodymium magnets and foamed mica diaphragms. Because it is magnetic, if you want to listen to purer music, you can remove the panel.

There is a led display in the middle position, which is mainly used to display the working status and mode of the speaker. For example, displaying “TV” represents the sound of the TV being played.

On the side, a spliced ​​design has been made. It can be seen that the speakers share three material designs: the front metal mesh cover, the top leather material, and the back acrylic sheet.

The left side also hides a USB interface, allowing users to insert U disk and other storage devices, play lossless music inside the device, such as DSD, DFF, FLAC and other formats.

On the rear interface, in addition to the common 3.5mm analog audio interface, new network interfaces, fiber analog interfaces, and HDMI ARC interfaces that have become mainstream in recent years have also been added.

Connect the speakers to the TV with the included HDMI cable, and a control menu will pop up to let you quickly select the source and tone settings.

Of course, if you do not want to use the TV at all, you can use the included remote control to operate and control the speakers. You can quickly select audio input methods, connect Bluetooth devices, and adjust sound effects.

The connection to the subwoofer is simpler. It only requires one power cord to supply power, and the subwoofer will automatically connect wirelessly to the whispering gallery.

The woofer of the subwoofer is on the left side of the cabinet, so when placed on the ground, pay attention to the left and right space.

In addition, the HT-MT500 has also added a "sofa model" that allows the subwoofer to be placed under the sofa.

Just like on the map, it does not occupy valuable living space, but also helps to enhance the viewing experience.

When a fierce background sound such as an explosion occurs in the movie, the vibration of the bass can be clearly felt.

If you want to fully experience this home theater, you have to download Sony's exclusive APP "Music Center", and then the mobile phone APP will be home to this speaker home wireless network, and adjust the sound, such as open Sony Exclusive alcohol tone technology, bass volume, and more.

After the connection is successful, the HT-MT500 can be directly played on music software such as Spotify.

As a networkable speaker, the HT-MT500 automatically updates when it finds new features.

Since the HT-MT500 is equipped with Sony's own DSEE HX digital amplifier, I can say that he does not worry about the sound quality. The DSEE HX is simply created for today's streaming music. Nowadays, the students who play the bricks can be said to be less and less. After the DSEE HX is turned on, ordinary Mp3 files will be upgraded to 16Bit. Levels allow you to hear Hi-Fi effects even without good source files.

In addition, the use of S-Force PRO front virtual surround sound, give me the greatest feeling is that you sit on the sofa, can clearly feel the sound from the speakers is three-dimensional, hierarchical, can feel the sound is From the four sides.

However, because it is virtual in the end, the 180° parallel to the user and the back cannot be simulated. Therefore, students with budget can purchase Sony's other wireless speakers and create a “virtual surround sound” effect.

For general songs, I think the performance is very satisfactory, and the overall feeling of tri-band performance is very balanced.

In the low-frequency area, the low-frequency performance is moderate, and the flexibility and speed of music have reached a good level. Listening to the soundtrack of some soundtracks is still a great atmosphere.

IF: The vocal performance of this headphone headset is particularly good, the resolution is very good, you can listen to the sound of the outlet, not the tooth sound. The positioning of the vocal individual feels a little bit a little bit closer, and I personally still like this setting. The vocal reproduction is real and the background instrument is slightly weaker.

In the high frequency area: The performance of high frequencies sounds a little dry, but it is not bad enough to be broken or harsh, and the performance of some orchestral instruments is still timely and texture. The sound field is wide, and the position of various musical instruments and vocals is still quite strong.

Of course, HT-MT500 has a built-in LDAC Bluetooth lossless transmission protocol. Since there is no other Sony device on hand, this function has no way to experience it. Interested students can go to the store to audition.

The scene I used most was of course playing games, playing NS Mario Racing, engine sounds, drifting friction sounds, background music, and it sounded pleasing.

The price is too high, priced at more than 4,000 yuan, still quite touching;

The speaker's APP has been criticized. Although it has upgraded some, it is still very miserable. It's better to listen to the song with a Bluetooth connection. I hope you can upgrade it later.

The new WIFI connection is often broken. It is not supported for AirPlay.

The HT-MT500 can be said to have a good balance between sound quality and volume. It is small, but its performance is not worse than the average home speaker. It also adds Sony's unique DSEE XX and virtual surround sound technology, whether it is watching a movie or listening to music. , All have good results, if you are considering starting with the home speaker combination does not take up, HT-MT500 must be a good choice; but if you are an Apple user, you may buy support for Airplay even better.
