Sound field performance:
In terms of sound field form, Crossfade Wireless is relatively wide and performs well. The center of the sound field becomes less dense and less crowded, with better lateral width and longitudinal orientation. In the category of near-medium distance sound field, the sound field is generally biased toward the maximum extent of the indoor stage. Crossfade Wireless headphones are positioned in the style of pop music and anime soundtracks and even its basic attributes rock music. Therefore, the overall sound field is smaller in overall width and more prominent in the subject's foreground. Some deeper intensities in the sound field enhance the standard details of the sound field. Sound field design practices make it easy to highlight spatial outlines and details.
Low frequency performance:
The low-frequency performance is still very prominent. This time, Liu Xing's “Strange Cranes†was used for testing. Lieutenant's musical instruments are powerful and well-dispersed, and the slight slight distraction of the low-frequency endings is not obvious and they perform quite well.

Listening to Tsai Chin's ferry by using Crossfade Wireless is a pleasure. The overall IF has a relatively good sense of depth and thickness, there are obvious signs of softening, especially when the female voice performance is very smooth and soft, from the mid to high frequency extension of the point of view of Crossfade Wireless at this point there are obvious modifications to achieve Beautify effect. Listening for a long time will not appear tired, and the vocal distance of the midrange is relatively prominent and depends on some. Listen carefully to hear the vocal person's feeling less than one meter in front of you, so the vocal position is more prone to highlight the sharpness of the details and mouth shape, which is the loud rhythm we commonly refer to in the speaker system.

Through the test, the high-frequency light is transparent and bright, and there is no glare. The peak part can clearly distinguish the vocalization of each instrument and it is very good.
