SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
Sony deliberately chose that processing chip for the ai dsee. So that sacrifice in speed was a calculated choice. still hard to beat the Sony dsp. If you don’t need lots of power and those low power specs are deceptive. I do love the 340 tho - I’ll need to hear it with the real tube amp card...- coldchillin81

Romi Audio - The official thread
Just throwing this out there - I’ve heard a lot of amps. Desktop and portable. The pro is really, really - special and the power supply takes it up a notch. I’ve not heard a better amp - from experience the copper doesn’t add warmth as much as it makes the background darker. Like there’s a Black...- coldchillin81

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
It totally does - and if it’s not a black gate cap, a very fine cable or a special nos tube I too prefer less in the signal path. But when it adds to the experience by increasing imaging, layering and sort of stately musicality without sacrificing details? I’m in. All components for pw are...- coldchillin81

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
The first times version increases the resolution and adds more holography to the sound stage. Brings vocals in close too - not really my thing but in combination with the oriolus B300s and the right cable I can push them back to my preference- coldchillin81

Mark- it was a pleasure meeting you in person in NY and I hope to attend socal - I’m furious this happened to you and like you - I understand the naivety that comes from this community. I sat around 10s of thousands of dollars in products and reveled in the opportunity. On day 2 I was trying...- coldchillin81

You think this could be the trade off Sony made for the chip used in the m2 to max out ai contributions in the dsee vs processing power and boot times?- coldchillin81

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
When you misrepresent your thoughts about something as if it’s always been clear and obvious to you - is it not proper to point that out? Even when it had changed multiple times? When you’re using memory to compare a device like your a/b’ing them using fairly unreasolving transducers. These are...- coldchillin81

You’re entitled to your opinion dude - all I’ve done is copy and paste facts from Sony and apply basic logic. As long as I hear outrageous claims posted in literally THE forum to discuss it - I intend to.- coldchillin81

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
Hmm interesting - that’s not what I recall you saying when you got the m2. Also seems strange it would be that much more powerful without the overhauled power block and upgraded pcbs Sony put in the new version hence the notable size difference. Because as Sony puts it: “The WM1AM2 boasts an...- coldchillin81

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
I have a black gate full Romi modded M2. I’ve tried neutron with it- dsee and dsd are both better than neutron. And it beats my Hugo 2 handidly -I haven’t heard the m1 let alone the modded one, however no one is ever talking about the m1 modded or otherwise besting the Hugo 2 and I struggle to...- coldchillin81
