LUXURY & PRECISION P6 PRO REVIEW

乐彼P6PRO测评

SOFTWARE
PROPRIETARY OS
(Tested with firmware version 1.0.0.2)

The P6 Pro does not so much as ditch the P6 proprietary OS Linux framework but rather rework the UI to better accommodate touch navigation. It is still a relatively simple OS though slightly less linear than before. Most of the features are exactly the same as the P6 version so that means no app capability and no WiFi for social connectivity.

Comparing to my dated L3 Pro I can tell it’s more or less the same OS with a more mature and refined approach with similar sub-menu options under key headings. The top-most icon layers also make a comeback but it is actually a bit simpler than the L3Pro triple icon layer with a single return arrow to get you out of any sub-menu.

So, essentially the new P6 Pro OS is a mix of the P6 list-based screen cards with the L3 Pro touch control icon at the top for fast touch navigation.

The P6 Pro OS speed and stability are essentially the same as the P6 version though it will seem faster with touch capability once you boot up. The bootup time into the home menu screen is around 5 seconds from a long press and about 2 seconds to power off. I suspect the stability is from the code being relatively mature since LP has been using a version of this for years.

软件
专用的操作系统
(使用1.0.0.2版固件测试)

P6 Pro并没有抛弃P6专有操作系统的Linux框架，而是重新设计了用户界面以更好地适应触摸控制。它仍然是一个相对精简的操作系统，尽管比以前略微逊色。大多数功能与P6版本完全相同，所以这意味着没有应用程序功能，也没有用于社交连接的WiFi。

与我过时的L3 Pro相比，我可以看出它或多或少用了相同的操作系统，但在主标题下有类似子菜单选项，这是一种更成熟和精致的方法。最上面的图标层设计也重新回归，但实际上比L3Pro的三层图标层更简单，只有一个返回箭头能让你离开任何子菜单。

因此，从本质上讲，新的P6 Pro操作系统是P6基于列表显示的屏幕与L3 Pro顶部用于快速触摸导航的触控图标的混合体。

P6 Pro操作系统的速度和稳定性与P6基本相同，不过一旦启动，它的触摸功能看起来会更快速便捷。长按进入主菜单屏幕的启动时间约为5秒，关闭电源约为2秒。我感觉其系统的稳定性是由于代码相对成熟，因为乐彼已经使用这个版本很多年了。



NAVIGATION

You now have several methods through which to navigate the P6 Pro software. You can navigate via touch, the physical buttons or the rotary, or a mix of all three with the options all user switchable in the advanced settings menu.

If you are a pure touch guy you can disable all the mechanical controls which is my default option for the P6 Pro navigation. You will not lose playback control from the left panel with this option, only menu navigation is affected.

You can also set navigation beyond touch to purely the rotary dial or the media control keys or a hybrid of both. Personally, I do not see the need for them but it is there if you want it.

In terms of UI experience, this is still a relatively linear navigational experience. The old 3-click rule of 20 years plus UI principle is still strongly in effect on the P6 Pro OS so you are unlikely to get lost or stuck when navigating.

The home screen is always but a few clicks or touches away. If you chose to retain the media control via the physical keys it is even faster with a single long press of the command button.

Also, media navigation is much better with touch scrolling on the P6 Pro. Whilst still a bit of a pain with long lists on a small screen, you can get through it much quicker than the media button and rotary dial functionality of the P6 non-touch alternative.

导航

你现在有几种方法来导航P6 Pro软件。你可以通过触摸、按物理按键或旋转旋钮来导航，或者将这三种方式混合在一起，用户可以在高级设置菜单中切换这些选项。

如果你是一个纯用触控的人，你可以禁用所有的机械控制，这是我对P6 Pro导航的默认选项。使用这个选项，你不会失去左边面板的播放控制功能，只有菜单导航会受到影响。

你也可以将触摸之外的导航设置为纯粹的转盘或媒体控制键或两者混合。就个人而言，我认为没必要，但如果你想要的话，它就在那里。

在用户界面体验方面，这仍是一个相对线性的导航体验。在P6 Pro操作系统上，20多年来相当成熟的3次点击规则加上UI原则仍然起着显著效果，所以你在导航时不太可能“迷路”或卡住。

主屏总是只需点击或触摸几下就能找到。如果你选择保留物理按键的媒体控制方式，那只需长按一下命令按钮就能更快唤醒屏幕。

另外，P6 Pro的媒体导航在触摸滚动方面改善良多。虽然在小屏幕上的长列表仍然有点痛苦，但你可以实现比P6的媒体按键+旋转控制更快地滚动列表，所以这不只是非触摸的替代品。



PLAYBACK

Once in the P6 Pro playback screen, there are a few more layout and option changes from the P6 playback that seems to be a response to moving to touch gestures that can open up different areas of the OS quicker than non-touch.

Gone is the quick low gain and high gain switch from the P6 as well as the volume bar. Instead, you now get a timeline touch control with quick playback options towards the bottom and a cogwheel to the top right that gives you direct access to the system settings.

From there you can drop into the EQ or Audio output and change the gain, go LO from PO, or quickly switch your digital filter setup then return back to the playback screen without interrupting the music.
All other features on the playback screen are unchanged meaning the big bitrate and sample rate display box, the artwork to the bottom, and the animated peak meters at the top which bob up and down during audio playback.

One critique? The tiny timeline is a bit challenging to manipulate where you want it exactly via touch. I would like to have seen that moved up to where the volume bar is on the P6 screen is to give you a bigger and more precise area to control.

播放界面

一旦进入P6 Pro的播放界面，与P6相比，还是有一些布局和选项上的变化，这似乎是对转向触控体验的回应，触控方式可以比非触控更快打开操作系统的不同区域。

P6上的快速低增益和高增益开关以及音量条已经消失了。取而代之的是，一个时间轴触摸控制条，底部还有快速播放选项，右上方有一个齿轮图标，让你直接进入系统设置。

在那里，你可以进入均衡器或音频输出设置，实现增益选项调整、从PO转到LO，或快速切换你的数字滤波设置，然后返回到播放界面而不中断音乐。

播放界面上的所有其他功能都未改变，这意味着一个较大的比特率和采样率显示框，底部的插图，以及顶部的动画峰值表，在歌曲播放过程中上下摆动。

有什么评价呢？小小的时间轴在你想要触控调整时会发现有点难用。我希望把它移到P6屏幕上音量条的位置，这样就能给你一个更大、更精确的控制区域。



FEATURES

The P6 Pro feature set has not changed from the P6 on a high level. The user experience has improved though with the switch to touch-based UI controls allowing for quicker access to sub-menu options including environmental controls.

AUDIO OUTPUT

The Audio output option is still the most critical sub-group of controls on the P6 Pro as it was on the P6. This covers the output mode of the analog jacks as well as your digital filtering and gain control options. If you use the P6 Pro as much as I do you will find yourself dipping into this menu quite a lot.

You get two gain controls, high and low, which also act as the voltage switch for the lineout options from the same jacks. You can switch between the two output modes from the same output settings menu.

At the very bottom of the audio output settings menu is the final switch option to change to SPDIF output. This is still split from the headphone interface mode and once again I find myself wondering if these two could not be merged to a single output selector menu for simplicity’s sake.

You also still get the same 5 different filter options in the digital filter setup of the P6 Pro, the ability to select native or DSD to PCM decoding as well as choose DoP over your SPDIF output.

功能特色

P6 Pro的功能设置与P6相比，在高级功能选项上没有变化，但用户体验得到了改善，改用基于触摸的用户界面控制，可以更快地访问子菜单选项，包括系统控制。

音频输出

音频输出选项仍然是P6 Pro上最关键的控制子组，就像P6上一样。它包括模拟接口的输出模式以及数字滤波和增益控制选项。如果你像我一样经常使用P6 Pro，你会发现自己经常接触到这个菜单。

你有两个增益选项：高和低，这也是同一接口LO选项的切换开关。你可以在同一个输出设置菜单中切换这两种输出模式。

在音频输出设置菜单的最底部是最后一个开关选项，以切换为SPDIF同轴输出。这仍然是从耳机接口模式中分离出来的一个输出选项，这是我在考虑一点，为了简单起见，是否可以将这两种模式合并为一个输出选择菜单。

在P6 Pro的数字滤波器设置中，你仍然有5个不同的滤波器选项，能够选择原生DSD解码或DSD转PCM解码，以及在SPDIF输出上选择DoP。



EQUALIZER

An unchanged equalizer represents a bit of a missed opportunity here for me on the P6 Pro. As before, you get 6 presets the cover the norms such as flat or normal, rock, pop, etc. but sadly still no ability to customize what is in effect an 8-band graphic equalizer, (as represented on the playback screen).

The presets still have a noticeable effect on the final output though personally, I prefer them switched off as it delivers a few more dB volume and sounds the most dynamic out of all the presets.

Using a classic Sony MDR-EX1000 monitor, the Jazz preset still comes in second place with a cleaner tone and more bite in percussion should you wish that. Another doable option is the rock preset which will give you that classic V-shaped response but it also seems to gut the physicality and presence from the EX1000 lower-mids a bit too much.

The rest are either way too muddy like the bass preset or uneven sounding like the mids forward pop preset. The Classic preset sounds like it’s being played in the room next to me which isn’t that appealing.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS

All advanced system settings on the P6 Pro remain unchanged from the original P6 menu options. That includes display management which I mentioned before you should drop to around 3 from 5 to limit the drain on the unit battery life. Sleep options will also help improve battery management if not using it on a frequent basis.

USB options for the P6 Pro remain the same with a choice of connection modes for data transfer or DAC output. You also get an audio sync delay for latency control and a choice of power via USB or the battery inside the P6 Pro when in DAC mode.

均衡器

对我来说，P6 Pro的均衡器没有变化，小有遗憾。和以前一样，你有6个EQ预设选项，涵盖了平直、正常、摇滚、流行等等，但遗憾的是仍然没法定制出如8段图形均衡器一样的效果（如在播放屏幕上表示）。

预设EQ仍然对最终输出有明显的影响，尽管就个人而言，我更喜欢把它们关掉，因为它能提供更高的音量，并且在所有预设中听起来最有活力。

使用经典的索尼MDR-EX1000监听入耳，爵士乐预设仍然排在第二位，如果你想用它的话，这个音效下EX1000的音色更干净，打击乐的打击感更强。另一个可行的选择是摇滚EQ，它将给你带来经典的V型调音，但它似乎也有点过分削弱了EX1000中低频的能量感和存在感。

其余的EQ，要么像Bass音效那样过于浑浊，要么像中频EQ那样听起来不均匀。古典EQ听起来像在我旁边房间里播放的，这并不那么吸引人。

系统控制

P6 Pro上的所有高级系统设置与原来的P6菜单选项保持不变。这包括我之前提到的显示管理，你应该把它从5降到3左右，以限制对设备电池寿命的消耗。如果不经常使用，睡眠选项也将有助于改善电池管理。

P6 Pro的USB选项保持不变，可选择数据传输或DAC输出两种模式。你还可以通过音频同步延迟来控制延迟，在DAC模式下，可以选择通过USB供电或P6 Pro内部的电池供电。



MEDIA MANAGEMENT

You can dig in and manage your P6 Pro media via two routes, the directory option which is the basic folder and file navigation, and through the meta library options.

DIRECTORY

The folder and file drill works just like any other DAP that offers the same options and the drill-down and selecting is fast. You also have a secondary menu option by long-pressing the touchscreen over the choice of track to allow you to add the files to playlists or delete the files altogether.

META MANAGEMENT

The meta library has almost the exact functionality as the drill-down file explorer except it uses the meta tags to file tracks under the usual categories of artist, album, and all music, (songs).

The flat drill down from there on the P6 Pro is unchanged from the P6. So, artist selection going straight into all the songs rather than grouping them by albums then songs which is a bit cumbersome if you happen to have a ton of albums. There is still no genre option, something that I hope can be included in subsequent firmware updates.

Long pressing on an individual track will give you the option to add that track to a playlist that you can then access in its own area in the media library. However, you cannot delete the actual track in the meta library like you can in the file browser.

PLAYLISTS

Playlists have their own section where you can add and delete but sadly you cannot rename the playlists so if you manage a ton of them you will have to memorize what’s in them via a 1,2,3 etc… naming sequence. Not ideal.

媒体管理

你可以通过两种途径进入并管理你的P6 Pro曲库，目录选项是基本的文件夹和文件导航，以及媒体库选项。

目录

文件夹和文件读取的工作方式就像其他提供相同选项的DAP一样，进入和选择的速度也很快。你还有一个二级菜单选项，通过长按触摸屏上选择的曲目，你可以将歌曲文件添加到播放列表或完全删除该文件。

媒体库管理

媒体库功能几乎与钻取式文件资源管理器完全相同，只是它使用元标签将曲目归入艺术家、专辑和所有音乐（歌曲）等常规类别。

P6 Pro上的平面化菜单进入逻辑与P6没有变化。因此，可以通过点击艺术家选项直接进入所有歌曲，而不是按专辑和歌曲分组，如果你碰巧有一吨的专辑，那就有点麻烦了。仍然没有音乐流派选项，我希望在随后的固件更新中能包含这一选项。

长按一个单独的音轨，你可以选择将该音轨添加到一个播放列表中，然后你可以在媒体库中访问它自己的区域。然而，你不能像在文件浏览器中那样删除媒体库中的实际曲目。

播放列表

播放列表有自己的控制区域，你可以添加和删除，但遗憾的是，你不能重命名播放列表，所以如果你管理大量的播放列表，你将不得不通过1,2,3等命名顺序来记忆其中的内容。这并不理想。
