[Equipment Party] After the desktop is simplified, the just-needed items for the workstation - keyboard, touchpad, pen, earphone, player

The desktop pc system at home took several months of homework and waited for a good price to buy. It was finally assembled, but because there is no water cooling, no fully transparent case, and no RGB colorful, there is really nothing to show. The key is to route the cables yourself. Didn't go well. But at least once it is turned on, you can play 3a, so you don't have to continue to toss and go to work.

I don’t plan to have all kinds of gorgeous tables, ambient lights, and various decorative figures like a certain red book at the work station. Firstly, the leadership does not allow it, and secondly, it does not meet the taste that I should have at this age (you can’t expose us It’s post-80s!), and last but not least, don’t distract yourself. So after thinking about it for a long time, it is still a worry-free solution-Apple started it~

The core system is a 16-inch MacBook Pro. Although it is positioned as a mobile workstation, it is a pure desktop computer for me. I usually put it on a stand to stand it up, and then connect it to an ordinary 4k screen. A fruit fan colleague joked: You are good, you have "shielded" the two biggest advantages of the 16-inch mbp this time - battery life and screen. If you don't want to move your office, and you don't plan to use this top-notch screen, why buy it?

Actually, I struggled with mac studio at first, but later found out that occasionally I still have to bring my notebook to the meeting room to project ppts and the like, so the real machine must not be used. The iOS system like Ipad pro is not suitable for productivity at all, and it passes quickly, so the only option is mbp. According to mbp's principle of large size and low configuration with the highest cost performance for many years, I quickly chose this new 16-inch. After arriving, I found that it was really heavy, and I didn't want to take it with me at all. Fortunately, due to the impact of the epidemic, I have hardly traveled much this year. You don’t have to worry about the ugly Liu Haiping on the external monitor. Buy big or not small, the 16-inch fan seems to never hear it turn when I am working, open various large pictures, various programs start in seconds, and it is extremely smooth. Therefore, for me, stable performance, no ads, fast running speed, and quiet running status, I am very satisfied if I can do these things.

Now that I bought the mbp, it is natural to pair it with a magic keyboard and a magic control board. In fact, I usually play with mechanical keyboards, and I have assembled custom keyboards, so I know how big the pits are. This time I returned to Apple's simple three-piece suit, not because I like this minimalist elegance, but purely for comfort.

I am used to typing on mechanical keyboards, and when I return to the film, the first feeling is that it is quiet. Whether it is the silent red switch or other so-called quiet switches, it is still noisy in front of the film. The silent switch of the electrostatic capacitor is also considered quiet, but it is still not as good as the Apple keyboard. As for the feel, it seems to me that it is a matter of metaphysics. The feeling is different every time, and it is very subjective. Anyway, the power of habit is powerful. As long as it is not anti-human like the scissor keyboard of the new MacBook, basically any keyboard will adapt after a period of time. As for the Magic Keyboard, it is quiet enough, which is the biggest advantage. As for the dirt-resistant, short keystrokes, etc., it doesn’t matter, they are all consumables anyway.

The magic control board is mainly used to replace the mouse. The main reason is basically the same as above, and it is still quiet. The quietest mouse I have used before is Logitech mx master3s, but it is quieter. There should be no mouse that can compare with the touchpad... After getting used to the gesture operation, the touchpad can replace the mouse in 90% of the scenes. Before buying When chatting with a product manager friend, he also said that almost no one in the Internet circle uses a mouse. Although I am not in your circle, I still tried to work without a mouse, and I did get used to it after a period of time. But there are still two small problems here. The first is fine operations. For example, when cutting videos and doing excel, the touchpad is still not as easy to use as a mouse. The second is that you need to keep your wrist raised during frequent operations. , it is better to hold the mouse comfortably. If you don't mind the above two points, then the Apple touchpad is worth shouting yyds!

Talking about the pen, the original Jinhao titanium alloy cap was too heavy and tired of writing, so I made a decisive move and replaced it with a lighter Jinhao cap. Of course, I think the appearance is more fancy, hahaha. The assembly of the pen is Parker Century Ribbon Edition, M nib. Jinhao's Century 100 is the imitation of Parker Century, so the cap can be perfectly compatible with Parker's assembly. The pole cap I bought this time is called Qingxiao Bairi, which is almost exactly the same as the white century pole. The difference is that the resin on the top of the cap and the end of the pen is green, and the seller has changed the Tianguan to a more cute cat head . The desktop is already very cold, and still needs a little lively embellishment.

The original nib of the Jinhao Century 100 has not been touched, and it is used to pick up the Parker Century. The pen pal is used to calling it Doufold (a homonym for Doufold). The streamer tip was discontinued more than ten years ago, and it was replaced by the peach heart tip, and the ink output became more and more turbulent. The older nib is also called "Arrow". I have played with all three kinds of nibs, and only one streamer nib remained in the end. In terms of metaphysical feel, the arrow is the hardest, the heart is the softest, and the streamer is in between. The pattern is my favorite peach heart, but I can't find a restrained ink that can control it. From the point of view of playing, the arrows and streamers that have become antiques seem to be more worthy of collection while writing.

As for why you choose the m tip. How should I put it, I also unconsciously became more and more obsessed with writing along the way. At first, I started to try pens with xf and xxf fine tips, and then gradually got used to f. After I tried m, I couldn't stop it. After that, all I played was m. Because compared to the fine tip, the m tip is really smooth, except for picking paper. But since you bought a good pen, you have to match it with good paper. In terms of cost performance, the domestic Daolin paper is quite good. For the book, the slightly flawed version of the Concerto is very easy to use. In short, there are too many combinations of paper and pen, including ink, and it is impossible to try it all. If you have free time, this hobby is still very good. Like the few Japanese pens left here, I plan to wait for my daughter to grow up and use it as stationery for her. Used (it seems to save money for gifts...), if it becomes a family heirloom, it will be more profitable.

Finally, let’s talk about hifi. In the previous article, I never wrote about the earphones that appeared this time, because I usually listen to the Sony z1r and Audio-Technica’s wooden bowl headset wp900. This time I will write about dita’s old flagship dream xls. I accept second-hand earplugs, because anyone who knows about earplugs knows that dita brand is brand new, and the price is easy to collapse. Because the first-hand pricing is often outrageous, dita's self-confidence in honey over the years is also "admirable". Several times I felt that this brand was going to disappear, but it turned out that they were still alive and well. A while ago, there was even a flagship IEM with more than 20,000 yuan——ppt (perpetua), which seems to be the most expensive single-acting coil IEM in the industry. It used kondo an's sterling silver internal cable, and released a "more expensive than gold" Silver" such a shocking copywriting. It can be said to be truly defined, as long as I am not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed...

After complaining about the exaggerated ppt, I still have to praise the fragrant xls. The price I charged was less than half of the price of the first lot of z1r, but when it comes to actual experience, I think the two are 50-50, and they are very complementary. The bass of Z1r is fierce, the middle frequency is sharper, and the high frequency has a strong sense of metal. It is a style very similar to electronic music, while xls is a transparent and gorgeous fine sound.

However, neither of these two is easy to push. Although the impedance is not high, the sensitivity is lower than the other. The z1r and xls that have not been pushed, one is hard and the other is broken. The difficulty lies in the uncoordinated timbre, the timbre of the bass, midrange, and treble is not uniform, and there is a strange sense of disconnection, the low frequency is rumbling, the human voice is buzzing, the treble is chichichi, booming, crowded, chaotic, and noisy; and The xls with a fragmented sound will make a high-pitched high-pitched sound, and the bass sound is pitiful, like a piece of glass floating in the air. No wonder there are so many people out of this unpopular stuff.

But with p6pro, all the above problems can be solved. The R2R decoding composed of more than 200 resistors is like lubricating oil for car maintenance. It organically combines the three-frequency split of z1r into one, and the synergy effect is obvious, and the tone color is improved significantly; the warm sound bottom can also greatly relieve the dry and cold feeling of xls. He listened to "Coke Ring" by fish to his colleague. He said that he had never heard such a beautiful Liang Jingru, and his voice was too sweet!

That's right, the female voice of the xls after it was actually pushed away can be described as amazing. I think it is a higher-level and more pleasant existence than fww. According to the standard of XLS, the high-end r2r model is still needed to modify the high frequency more delicately and softly. Two 10,000-yuan flagship IEMs, whether it is the z1r responsible for the extremely high-frequency micro-motion coil, or the xls single-motion coil, the theoretical treble response is excellent, and both are worthy of the price, but they still need to play with sound and control. device to match. Playing hifi is the trouble here. You have to play 1+1 combination to get the best sound. Many people only evaluate the earphone when evaluating the sound quality. Because the sound of earplugs launched by different front ends is really different, the higher the end, the more so!

As for spending more than 20,000 yuan to buy a p6pro that can only listen to songs, it is also based on the above reasons. It forms a portable listening system with z1r or xls, and the synergistic sense of hearing is satisfactory, which can be called real satisfaction. If you switch to the MacBook pro’s headphone port, the sound is still loud enough, but the moistness of the sound, the high-frequency gorgeousness of the xls, the sense of space of the z1r, and the cohesion of the bass will all be weakened. I know that it takes so much to improve this. It's definitely not worth the money, but that's what a fever is, and it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality!

Finally, I hope that everyone can find a satisfactory combination of desktop office and daily use, work hard to make money for their hobbies, and get rid of the fever as soon as possible!
