XTZ房间分析仪 / 房间分析器可以帮您完善自己房间的声学表现。


在一般情况下,若要优化您的音响系统和房间配置需要花费大量时间,并且需要丰富的经验才可以办到。即便您可以单凭您的耳朵就做得很好,使用了房间分析器后,您还可以做得更好。房间分析器令您成为您自己的声学工程师,可以节省大量时间而实现臻于完美的效果。房间分析器同时也便于使用,不需要任何测量经验。
普通的Hi-Fi测试器材都非常复杂,不容易操作,并且价值不菲。房间分析器作为一款半专业器材,对与那些喜欢Hi-Fi,想要追求设置效果最佳化的人而言,无疑是最具竞争力的一款产品。
* 频率响应RTA实时分析
* 频率响应低频部分(高分析力)
* 找到房间节点,并且计算出必要的补偿来进行校正
* 声谱图/混响时间(时间/频率/幅度)
* USB麦克风拾讯系统(内置声卡)
* 软件配有友好的用户操作界面(支持PC的Windows XP和Vista系统),不需要高超的电脑技能来进行操作
* 随机附有连接系统或超低音的连接线


目标:
我们想用房间分析器来实现下列目标:
* 以有竞争力的价格来提供专业化的高分析力测量系统
* 可以搭配99 W12 DSP超低音(或其他带有参数均衡设置的器材)来使用,机动、灵活、准确地在任何房间内实现声学优化
* 容易安装,容易使用,不需要特殊电脑技能
* 也可以拿来单独使用
该程序可以进行一些计算分析
* RTA实时分析的频率响应
* 房间分析器的频率响应
* 分析房间节点/模式
* 带时间/振幅/频率的声谱分析
* 在测量基础上可以获得带PEQ(参数均衡)的修正建议(参照XTZ 99 W12 DSP)
* 带PEQ(参数均衡)的模拟修正
实际用途范例:
* 能在特定空间内帮助找到音箱或者超低音的最佳摆位
* 可以通过吸收、设置低频陷阱的方式来优化听音环境
* 提供带参数调整(99 W12 DSP)的超低音精确数值,可以补偿房间内的声学问题
为了让测试操作尽量简单,我们使用了USB的麦克风拾讯系统。这样房间处理器就不需要专门的麦克风驱动程序了。该麦克风是针对房间处理器的用途而专门设计的,也是房间处理软件工作的前提。
分析:
软件可以显示房间的频率响应,可以带或不带建议修正。频率响应调整的结果也可以显示出来。
对那些想要测试自己房间数据的人来讲,以被动式方式进行测量是非常有用的。
测量:
虽然软件所采用的算法很复杂,但实际测量的过程很简单,不必成为电脑达人就能够轻松操作这款软件。
XTZ的购买/试用条款不包含该房间分析器。

XTZ 創始人及總設計師 ~ Olle Eilason

XTZ是瑞典新晉崛起並且發展最為迅速的音響製造商,它的創始人及總設計師為Olle Eilason先生。Eilason先生擁有20多年的行業經驗,曾經設計過不少出色的產品,也曾擔任過很多著名音響品牌的瑞典代理。他因有感於目前在市場上許多廠商無心關注如何提升產品的品質與韻味,而皆醉心於追求利潤,令音響產品的價格一再水漲船高,甚至脫離了多數人的接受能力這一事實,決定另闢蹊徑,創立XTZ這一品牌,使用最好的設計與元件開發最佳解決方案,從而提供具有最佳性價比的平價產品,讓更多人都可以擁有好的音響。    
   

Olle Eliason先生不僅是一位元音樂愛好者,同時還是一位元音響設計師。





























早在Olle十四、五歲的時候就開始迷戀欣賞音樂,動手調整父親的AIWA(愛華)音響,並認識到更好的音質令音樂聽起來更動聽。當時他特別喜歡聽Iron Maiden、AC/DC、Metallica、Judas Priest之類的搖滾樂,這些都是比較重金屬風格的音樂,而他的父親則喜歡老式的音樂,不喜歡他聽的東西,也不喜歡他開太大聲。他曾經因為音樂開太大聲而受到父親斥責,被要求關小音量或者乾脆關掉。不過他還是一如既往的喜歡這些東西,到現在欣賞音樂仍然是其最大的愛好。他很高興當初他所喜歡的那些音樂如今已經變成了大眾音樂的一部分,輕易為人們所接受,不過像死亡金屬那一類的重金屬音樂,他則表現得像自己的父親一樣不能接受。
   

   16歲的時候,Olle開始學習電子學知識,動手修理電氣產品,並開始調節音響。比如往揚聲器裡面填充吸音材料,調節低頻反射孔,調節黑膠唱盤和唱臂,不過那時候還只是出於愛好,並不專業。但隨著時間流逝,經驗也在不斷增長。期間曾經發生過一些事故,比如讓音箱著火,觸電之類的,不過Olle也從這些事故當中得到了一些教訓。


1987年,Olle開始從事音響和電器維修方面的工作,這段時期的工作經驗讓他對電子元器件的特性以及產品電路圖和結構都有了深入瞭解。
   

   1992年Olle開始創辦自己的公司,經營Hi-Fi和TV產品,負責過Philips、Canton、QLN、Yamaha、Pioneer、Harman Kardon這些品牌在瑞典的銷售。這段時期他不僅專注於銷售產品,也接觸和測試了越來越多的產品。作為一名發燒友,他自己也經常更換更新更好的器材以獲得更好的聲音。目前僅其個人收藏就已經有數百種不同的音響產品。
       

在欣賞之餘,針對市售器材上所存在的這樣那樣的缺憾,Olle也開始自己動手來設計前級、後級功率放大器,並製作線材,組裝產品。他曾製作了大量不同類型的音箱,還為數百輛汽車裝配了車載音響。甚至在買車之前就已經先買好了自己的車載音響。因為在他看來,買車是人生當中的重要一步,但是沒有好的車載音響,這樣的車子就是不完整的。
除去自己動手來製作音響器材,早在和父母住在一起的時候,Olle便已經開始拿出自己的音響在家中花園的草坪上進行測試。最早他所使用的器材只是日本力仕的功放簡單搭配瑞典本地的一個音響品牌Rauna音箱,來測試房間對於音響器材表現效果的影響。這種測試也讓他認識到房間是影響Hi-Fi系統的第一大要素。在草地上聽音響基本上消除了房間的影響,可以得到近似於無響室的效果。
       

後來隨著條件的完善,Olle請來了瑞典專業的聲學工程師為其設計專門的試音間,並且在位於瑞典Gothenburg的無響室內進行了大量盲聽測試,來比較音箱、喇叭線、訊號線、CD機等不同的音響器材,看看究竟人們能夠從中聽出多大區別。同時他也參加過在世界各地所舉行的許許多多的各式音響展會,聆聽過從便宜的到非常之昂貴的各種器材。這些都豐富了他的設計和調整經驗。
20多年的從業經驗,讓Olle瞭解到什麼才是音響當中最重要的東西,他也將自己對音響的深刻理解融入到了自己的設計之內。XTZ便是誕生在這種對於音響的深刻理解的基礎之上。
