主题：又在国外网站发现QA350的长篇评论，老外的评测文章怎么都能写得这么长？

The QLS QA350 Player is really something. It’s ridiculously cheap, it’s ridiculously big, yet it’s ridiculously good sounding. I really couldn’t believe my eyes when I received the player. If you think that the HM-801 is big, the QLS is even bigger. Well, as some people say, “I couldn’t care how it looks as long as it sounds good”. If the HM-801 comes in a nice glossy finishing that exudes a high-end aura, the QES looks like a mere DIY project. The QLS, at $200 also can’t compete with the sound of the HM-801, but for $200, it kicks the butt of everything else near that price range.

这个QA350播放器还真有两下子。它不可思议的便宜，更不可思议的大，但是，同样不可思议的出好声。收到播放器时我真不敢相信自己的眼睛：如果你觉得HM-801个头大，这个更大。好吧，就像某人说的“只要好声我就不在乎外观”。如果说HM-801是带着High-End光环的华丽的完成品，那QA350看上去就像个DIY作品。这个东东，售价200美元，也不能跟HM-801比声音，但在200美元价位上，它PK掉了所有同价位的其他产品。

The QLS is pretty serious in designing the QA350. For starters, they only take WAV files through the means of SD Cards. It is equipped with a Wolfson WM8740, a D/A chip that no longer needs an introduction. The front panel reveals that the QA350 is a jack of all trades: a 1/8″ leadphone out, a 1/8″ line out & optical digital out combo jack, and a coaxial digital out. That’s pretty much everything you can think of in terms of connection interfaces.

QLS(乾龙胜)设计QA350可谓匠心独具。首先它播放WAV文件，需要SD卡；用Wolfson WM8740作为D/A转换芯片，此芯片无需介绍了；前面板布置了所有传送接口：1/8″耳机插口、1/8″LO模拟输出和OPT数字输出混合插口，还有一个同轴数字输出。通过这些接口几乎可以跟你想到的所有外围设备进行连接。

On the back side, you’ll find two different ports for power. A 3-pin square connector for charging the internal batteries, and a wallwart connector for operating the QA345 from AC power. There is also an SD card slot for the music library, a power toggle and a hold toggle switch. Though it may not be the prettiest looking player around, the QA350 is certainly one of the most full featured player I’ve come across. Oh, let’s not forget that the QA350 comes with a remote control. Now that’s pretty kickass.

在后面板上，你可以发现两个电源插口：一个3针方形插口用于给内置电池充电；一个传统圆形插口用于通过交流变压器给QA350的工作供电。还有一个SD卡插槽，一个电源开关，一个HOLD开关。虽然它可能算不上一个外观漂亮的播放器，但却是我见过的功能最齐全的播放器之一。哦！别忘了它还有个遥控器，尽管很山寨。

Despite the big size, the QLS player is not as heavy as it may look. The use of a lithium ion battery attributes to this. The charger turns out to be surprisingly small too, much smaller and lighter than the one found on the Hifiman HM-801, which is notoriously heavy for traveling purposes.

尽管个头很大，但播放器并没有看上去的那么沉，估计是采用锂电池的缘故。充电器也令人吃惊的小，比Hifiman HM-801的小很多也轻很多，好处是不重，携带方便。

The sound is ridiculously good. I listened to the QA350 directly through its headphone out using the JH16Pro, and I was truly blown away by what I’m hearing. Throughout my review of the JH customs, I always get bummed in being stuck on using the lousy Ipod Classic 120GB as my only portable source. Not anymore. The QA350 was finally able to give me the proper sound quality for the JH16 Pros while remaining friendly on the wallet. After all, my wallet still hasn’t recovered after that JH Audio review, so I can’t really afford to get a HM-801.

声音不可思议的好。我用QA350直推我的耳机JH16Pro，真的被我听到的（声音）吹走了。自从我作为JH用户进行了（耳机）评论起，我也总是因自己只有差劲的Ipod Classic 120GB播放器作为随身音源而感到抓狂，现在，往事一去不复返了。QA350可以让我的JH16Pro表现出良好的声音质量，这意味着对我的钱包来说非常友好！毕竟在那篇JH的评论以后我的钱包还没复原呢（估计作者花了不少积蓄在JH16Pro耳机上，而且作者本身不太富有——译者注），我真的还买不起HM-801！

The Ipod Classic is inadequate in so many ways when you are listening through a high end IEM like the JH16. Congested soundstage, roll off on low bass and the top trebles, midrange lacking clarity, and a bunch of other “distortions” on the sound. The QA350 is an immediate upgrade from the Ipod. Soundstage, separation, top and bottom extension, refinement, I really won’t waste time comparing the differences because it’s not even close. If you are looking for a high quality portable, but don’t really have the budget for a HM-801, you’l learn to accept the looks and size of the QA345 because the sound is worth it.

当你用High-END级别的耳机（例如JH16）听音乐时，Ipod Classic播放器在很多方面都不合适：局促的声场，低频少，高频弱，中频缺乏解析力，还有一堆的失真。QA350对比Ipod可以立即让人耳目一新：声场、解析度、高低频延伸度、细节。我真不用浪费时间进行比较，因为那差距不是一点点。如果你需要一个高音质的便携播放器，又没钱买HM-801，你就需要看看这款QA350，因为它的声音值得你一试。

I did compare the DAC section of the QA350 to our favorite sub $200 DAC, the Audinst HUD-MX1 (both uses the same WM8740 D/A chip). The comparison was done with the Audiotrak ImAmp and the HD800, and I find the QA350 to come very close to the DAC section of the HUD-MX1. Just a little less treble extension, air, and low end presence than the HUD-MX1, but otherwise the QA350 sounds very very good.

我拿QA350跟我最喜欢的200美元小型DAC做了比较（我的是Audinst HUD-MX1，两者都采用了WM8740 D/A芯片），耳放采用Audiotrak ImAmp，耳机采用HD800。我发现QA350跟我的HUD-MX1对比极其接近，只是在高频延伸、空气感上稍有不足，临场感比HUD-MX1稍弱，除此之外QA350听起来非常非常好！

The headphone out on the QA350 by itself is fairly powerful, definitely more than the standard Ipod Classic headphone out. It was able to drive both the Beyerdynamic T1 and the Hifiman HE5LE to very loud levels (albeit at near maximum volume), and playing some bass heavy Prodigy songs from “Fat of the Land”, bass was clean with no distortions present.

QA350的耳机输出十分有力，绝对超过标准的Ipod Classic的耳机输出。它可以驱动拜亚动力T1和Hifiman的HE5LE耳机到很高的响度（尽管音量旋钮已经接近最大），并且在播放一些低音奇重的歌曲时（例如“Fat of the Land”中的歌），低音部分干净不失真。

The QA350 is fairly cheap at $200 shipped, though you need to shell out some extra cash for a 16GB or a 32GB SDHC cards, considering that the QES takes strictly WAV files only. Yep, no more uploading the entire 1,000 CD library to your portable player. But at the end it’s still worth it. 32GB gives you plenty of music, and you can always buy an extra 32GB card, seeing that they don’t cost that much these days (~$90 from Amazon.com).

QA350非常便宜，200美元包邮。当然你还需要一些额外的花费购置16GB或32GB的SDHC存储卡，提醒一下它只支持WAV文件播放。是的，显然不可能把你上千张的CD收藏全部上传到你的便携播放器，但它还是值得的。32GB已经可以存储很多的音乐，而且你还可以选购更大的存储卡（不知道支不支持———译者注），现在存储卡已经很便宜（亚马逊网站上是90美元）。

If there is one problem, it’s the LCD display that’s far too short to display album and song information. So you have to sort of remember the structure of the folders you have stored in the memory card. To my surprise, the navigation is fairly intuitive: up/down to scroll between albums, left/right changes tracks within an album, and the center button to play/pause.

如果要说还有什么缺点的话，那就是它的LCD显示屏实在是太小啦，根本没法显示专辑或歌曲的信息。所以你最好记住存储卡里的文件夹结构。让我惊奇的是，导航操作非常直接，上/下用于跳转专辑（每个专辑一个文件夹————译者注），左/右用于跳转专辑中的音轨，中间按钮就是播放和暂停。
