I have my hands ON the Sony X1000 Walkman - Impressions / Discussions - Page 32

Nice...Thanks!
Im going to go for it!

Also ordered the JVC's, case and privacy filter!

Cool news PrinceOfEgypt

FX500 or FX1000?

Going to stump for the FX500's this time.
Budget cannot stretch to the 1000's!

Buying all the accessories for the walkman means i have had to economize on the headphones!

Will post pics when i get it all :-)

Maybe a naive question PrinceOfEgypt - Yet - Egypt, is that where you're based?

I really want to hear a pair of FX500s, to see what differences (if any) there are between those and the FX1000... I don't suppose by some miracle that you're actually based in London??

...On an additional note, after buying the dock for this (receiving tomorrow) I think I may well get a case if nothing else - the accessories - are you getting original Sony bits? (if so - from where??) or third party??

Thanks

Privacy filter? What are you planning on putting there buddy?

lol walkingman - I wonder if it would be any good as a screen filter (to block the sunlight..)

On a different note - still heading to Regent Street tomorrow??

I thought I would take my chance yesterday at the Apple store in Westfield but they didn't stock the models, so that was that! Haha, JVC you lose! Instead my money went into the pockets of other entrepreneurs (not audio related) which may well put hamper on my FX1000 ambition... The Sony Store there also attempted to sell me another X-Series, until I pulled mine out and said "Ha, I've got them already! Now what about them accessories?", but they didn't have any...

OT: Oh, am going down to either Brighton or Chichester tomorrow instead.

I'm not gonna bother with cases; my old A808 still looks perfect and I just keep it in my bag or coat, although always in a seperate pocket.

Hi guys,

Actually im based in London!

Well, im getting the official leather case, official protection sheet and official privacy filter! Well i don't plan on putting anything untowards on it...!

Obviously you cannot use the protection sheet and the privacy filter at the same time. I only bought the filter out of curiousity!

Im looking forward to hearing the 500's...

Well PrinceOfEgypt...

I do feel, when you get the FX500, that - you, me - and soozieq should meet up so that once and for all we can sort out, once and for all whether the FX500 and FX1000 are the same beast or not...

X2

If FX500 same as FX1000, i assure u FX500 will be in my siggy

Yes lets have a meet up once i get everything...
No big secret - from my friend who lives in Japan! :-)
