    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Good idea, but then I'd be tempted to spend more money and I can't afford a divorce:dt880smile:

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Thanks all...the official Android tool did it! Realize now I was looking at an old guide for a non-Android Walkman...shouldn't do this stuff when I'm half asleep. I'm overseas now (picked this baby up at e-earphone in Akihabara today), so only have my WF-1000XM4 wireless buds to test, but so...

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    I've been following this thread for a bit and finally took the plunge and bought a WM1M2. Thank you for all the info to help me make my purchase. Maybe I missed it along the way, but has anyone had issues with macOS and file transfer? I followed the guide and can't get the thing to show up in...

    Comment by 'superotaku' on listing 'Sony TA-ZH1ES'

    Hi, Is this still available? How much to ship to the Toronto area? (L1R 2H4). Thank you.

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    Thanks for the detailed info!  I'm thinking I'll just stick with the Hugo as it's more versatile (I would have to sell it to purchase the WM1A).     I have to say it's awesome to see Sony making such high quality products once again because there was so much crap for so many years.  I still...

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    Interesting thoughts. Are you using the Z1Rs? I just picked them up in Tokyo and they are amazing. Sony has managed to keep musicality and fun but not sacrifice clarity. I currently own the HD800 and PS1000e and have owned the T1s and LCD3 Fazor along with a whole pile of various level phones...

    Chord Hugo - The PORTABLE discussion thread

    Have my repaired Hugo back now and want to thank Chord and Bluebird Music for an awesome experience.  Extremely quick responses to email inquiries and a 1 business day turnaround time on my device...very impressive.  They ended up replacing the entire board and it's working flawlessly.    ...

    Chord Hugo - The PORTABLE discussion thread

    Long time thread lurker here who just had the HD USB break off my Hugo. Not impressed considering how careful I am with it. Soon after breaking, the device began operating strangely (getting no sound from SD USB port) and the volume indicator didn't provide all levelled colours. After a few...

    Burson Conductor SL ES9018 as DAC vs. Something Else?

    Ok...opinions appreciated from anyone who might have experience in this realm.  I originally bought a Sabre ES9018 based Conductor SL last summer and it's been a great piece of kit.  Earlier this year I found a decent deal on a used WA2 and absolutely fell in love with the Woo sound running off...

    Disappointed with Mjolnir

    Quote:   In the end I ended up selling the 160DS.  It sounded great with the Gungnir as my DAC but I found the power headroom a little lacking for the LCDs.  I had to have the volume knob almost completely turned to the right to be at an acceptable level.  Interesting point on the fuse...

    Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier

    Quote:   Yeah, I find the Black Widow to be warmer than the Silver Dragon V3 and better suited to certain recordings (ie: classic rock).  I really like the Silver Dragon V3 for pushing the voices up a bit and taking away the Audeze's warmth/darkness for other recordings.  Last night I was...

    Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier

    I just picked up a used Moon Audio Silver Dragon V3 (silver conductor) cable for my LCD2's and find that it makes a pretty big difference over my Toxic Cable Black Widow (copper conductor).  They're both great but there's enough of a change that I can switch back and forth depending on what I'm...

    Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier

    I've been using my Mjolnir/Gungnir and LCD2's for just over 2 weeks and after a good 50-75 hours it sounds really good.  At first I was really disappointed and could barely listen to the combo, but now I love it.  Part of this was getting used to the overall signature of a balanced system.    ...
