Is the sound of the AV stick loud enough to cause embarrassment (evaluation of the mute effect)

　　For many people who want to try AV sticks, the sound problem is like a "stumbling block". Worrying that excessive sound will not only affect your own experience, but may also be noticed by others, causing unnecessary embarrassment. In order to help everyone eliminate this concern, we have conducted a professional mute effect evaluation to reveal the truth about the sound size of AV sticks for you.

Assessment preparation

　　Select test products: We selected 5 popular AV sticks of different brands and models on the market for evaluation to ensure that the evaluation results can cover a variety of situations. The price range of these AV sticks ranges from 100 to 500 yuan, which is certain representativeness.

　　Test environment: In order to ensure the accuracy and objectivity of the test, we chose a quiet indoor room to control the background noise below 30 decibels. Use a professional noise tester to collect sound data at a distance of 30 cm from the AV stick.

Assessment process

　　Low-gear test: Adjust each AV stick to the lowest gear and start recording the data of the noise tester immediately after starting. After testing, it was found that the sound emitted by most AV sticks at low settings is between 40-45 decibels, which is equivalent to the volume of normal indoor conversation. This kind of sound generally does not attract the attention of others and is not likely to cause embarrassment.

　　High-speed test: Then adjust the AV stick to the highest speed and record the sound data again. The sound of some AV sticks will increase significantly at high settings, reaching 50-60 decibels, which is similar to the noisy level of an ordinary office. However, there are also some high-end models of AV sticks that can control the sound to about 50 decibels even when running at high settings.

Factors affecting sound volume

　　Product quality: Generally speaking, AV sticks with higher prices and better quality will be better in terms of silent design. They use more advanced motors and noise reduction technology, which can effectively reduce the noise generated during operation. For example, the mute effect of a well-known brand's AV stick priced at more than 400 yuan is significantly better than that of products priced at 100-200 yuan.

　　Usage scenario: If you use an AV stick in a room with good sound insulation, even if the sound is slightly louder, it will not be easily transmitted. On the contrary, in an environment with poor sound insulation, even a low sound may be detected by others. Therefore, choosing the appropriate usage scenario can also avoid embarrassment to a certain extent.

Summary and suggestions

　　Summary of sound situation: Generally speaking, most AV sticks on the market have smaller sounds at low settings and are less likely to cause embarrassment.； In higher settings, the sound increases a bit, but some premium products can still maintain relatively low noise levels.

　　Buying advice: If you are very concerned about sound issues, it is recommended to choose a higher-priced, quality-assured AV stick and use it in a room with good sound insulation. At the same time, you can check the product's user reviews before purchasing to learn about other users' feedback on its mute effect.
