DigiZoid Zo, down laptop - Review
Today we are pleased to present another of our exclusive for Italy (and Europe), the personal subwoofer digiZoid: Zo.
What? It was presented to readers of the President is directly RecensioniVere digiZoid, Paul Berg:
"Zo, adaptator being the first of its kind, has generated considerable interest and many questions about its purpose, its characteristics, advantages and benefits. Zo is for those who want to get the best experience possible sound from your portable player. In meeting this challenge, Zo was designed to have an incredible ability to reproduce low frequency sounds deep, clear and powerful, giving the feeling of having a subwoofer with 12 "inside the reader. At the same time Zo is able to provide complete clarity of the spectrum, creating a sense of space and dimension. Therefore Zo offers a great listening experience, which extends far beyond just playing music. ».
The package is small, 140x127mm, and well finished, with a design clear that merely show the front part of the product, the name, and the mark digiZoid. The opening is double, a booklet that shows the actual product at the bottom and contains a short guide to the top, and the other opening is at the sides to access the product and accessories including: two 3.5mm stereo cables (one a little more than 12cm and the other slightly less than 90cm), the USB cable to recharge the battery or to power it directly without using the battery.
Zo measures just 70x38x10mm and weighs less than 40g. Designed and manufactured in the USA, the materials used are top quality and also the assembly is done right, there are no squeaks and the device is very durable, so they can be held in any pocket without worries. The design is simple and rounded shapes make it seem even smaller. The choice of the glossy finish seems very apt because it is full of impressions, but it depends on the tastes ... Who knows, maybe in the future not the same restrictions apply different colored shells.
On the front peep the product name and the indicator "LightScale" on the right side of the "SmartVector" controller on the left to the micro USB port and charger indicator, the two top and bottom jack nothing.
How it works First, it can be connected to any device with a 3.5mm jack. From console to portable MP3 players, from netbooks to mobile phones, the car stereo to musical instruments. Wherever there is a need to sound deeper and cleaner, Zo will be for you.
If charting and technical insights, we refer to the official website ( http://www.digizoid.com/tech/ ), what we can tell you is that it works! As you can see yourself from the video (and the extent of loss of quality due conversion of YouTube), the sound is amplified, is lighter and basses. Do not lower 12 ", as Paul says, but a quality that until now we could not imagine owning a portable device. Compared to our registration, which covers notebook from simple boxes (!!), In the headphones the wow effect is guaranteed.
How do you use? First of all settings will need to disable any audio device that you intend to connect. That is no audio or plug-in profiles of active equalization. Then you have to reduce by about 25% volume than desired, since it amplifies Zo. And now? And now you just have to turn Zo, connect the device via jack, wait two seconds and ... done! At this point you can choose your profile, including the 32 available, simply by moving up or down the controller. When you are not using it, will not remove it, simply turn it off and the circuit will not stop. The battery life is more than 10 hours, recharges in one hour (fast charge) or two (complete).
We have used for about a month and now it is hard to do without it. The cost is $ 99 (ca. € 82) per hour and can be ordered only from the official website ( http://www.digizoid.com/store/ ), so you have to add $ 14.95 shipping and the possibility of being applied customs duties (we paid € 13). Overall therefore the figure, for now, is just above 100 €, the same that we would pay for the product already imported and perhaps less (whereas here the shipping is included). A reasonable cost having regard to the versatility and uniqueness of the product.
