Music is an indispensable part of my life. While working on the tasks for the LIFEBOOK4LIFE project, I decided to go ahead and test the Fujitsu LIFEBOOK UH572 for music playback performance based on the music I like to listen.
To see the audio features of the device, you can see its datasheet
About audio we have the following:

There is direct reference to the sound processing features but not direct detailed references to the speakers itself. As Hi-Fi aficionados say, it is the loudspeakers, not the player or the amplifier. So the questions is:
How do the speakers perform with different genres of music?
To perform the tests I decided to use recordings from youtube.com so the same test could be repeated in different hardware too.
All the tests are done with 70% volume set to avoid any distortion or problems caused bu potentially a high volume level recording.
I should note that the comments below might be too subjective as I have a different ear sensitivity. I am too sensitive to high pitch sounds.
The pieces were first listened on an Dell Latitude E6410 to ensure that they are useful choices. The selection below represents the music I listen to these days…
