Sony HT-Z9F speaker system disassembled with Rockchip RKNanoD chip
[Copy link]
In recent years, with the improvement of people's quality of life, more and more people have begun to pursue a high-quality viewing experience at home. The concept of "home theater" is getting closer and closer to people's lives, and audio plays a pivotal role in "home theater". Since its launch, Sony HT-Z9F wireless home audio system has always been a popular product that consumers consider when choosing a home speaker system.
I Love Audio Network recently got the "Sony HT-Z9F Wireless Home Audio System" developed by Sony. This speaker system consists of a sound bar and a subwoofer. It supports Dolby sound effects, DTS sound effects and VERTICAL SURROUND ENGINE vertical surround engine.
In the actual listening experience, Sony HT-Z9F wireless home audio system is more suitable for watching movies than listening to music. This set of speakers supports Dolby sound and vertical sound, which can provide users with an immersive viewing and gaming experience. Another point worth praising is that the sound wall and the bass speaker are connected wirelessly, but there is no sound delay and excellent sound surround effect.
What is even more surprising is that during the disassembly process of I Love Audio Network, it was discovered that the reason why the Sony HT-Z9F wireless home audio system has rich and full bass effects and the wireless connection is so stable and delay-free is because the subwoofer box uses Rockchip's main control chip RKNANOD, which ensures the stability of the connection between the speaker and the sound bar while bringing a heavy bass impact, helping to create a new dimension of sound with "high quality" and "horizontal surround" for the Sony audio system.
Next, I Love Audio will conduct a detailed disassembly of the Sony HT-Z9F wireless home audio system, and show you what configurations are used inside the Sony HT-Z9F wireless home audio system to support the product's immersive listening experience.
