I use Audirvana on my Mac Studio M2 and my dmp-z1. It works

Why don't you use symetric output 4.4mm ? Thé sound with 4.4 mm si better than asymetric output 3.5 mm

Please keep us informed regarding DMP-Z1 + utopia OG, I am very curious... You confirm utopia OG is the version of 20022 ?

Thanks for your feedback Rob49. If you were to compare the MDR Z1R and the HD800S what would your impressions be? Personally, when I bought the DMP-Z1, I bought the MDR-Z1R because I thought that staying in the SONY family made sense in terms of compatibility. In fact, people who had listened...

And if you have to compare the DMP-Z1/MDR-Z1R with the DMP-Z1/Porta Pro, what do you think?

Good news Rob49

You can also listen to the Abyss 1266 ( headphone difficult to drive too) with the dmp-z1 What do you think is the most suitable case of the two (Abyss / Susvara) to work with the dmp-z1

Thank you for this information. This is one of the reasons why I decided to buy the DMP-Z1, the possibility to drive difficult headphones like the Susvara... For the use of the DMP-Z1 on AC, do you use a dedicated lpsu or the Sony charger provided with the DMP-Z1 ? The volume is quite high ?

Personally, I use a laptop under windows wired with the usb cable supplied with the dmp-z1. I never try to use an android-based streamer. On the laptop I have installed Audirvana studio with which I can stream Qobuz. I find the result very convincing. The sound quality is very good. Maybe it...

I have Dmp-z1 and Mdr-z1r. I would like to improve my audio experience to a higher level by upgrading my headphone. I know every headphone has its own peculiarities which may correspond to the tastes of some people and knowing that we are all different. Do you think it’s wise to go for a...

Thank you so much for your help

Hello all, Can someone tell me the exact type of Barrel jack connector for 19.5VDC, I don't think it's Barrel jack (5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID) or Barrel jack (5.5mm OD x 2.5mm ID). I tried to find this information on internet but I didn't find it...

Doug2507: Do you know if the pdf is still available or where I can upload it ? Because I’m thinking of making myself a lpsu for my dmp-z1, and I would like to know the current requirement for the 19.5 VDC DC power supply. On your screenshot it is indicated VDC=19.5V, 2.35A and 45.8W, do you...

Yes I know Abyss + Susvara and LCD5 are not very suitable to DMP. But compared to others dap, the dmp is more powerful and I read in a test : DMP-Z1 + HiFiMAN Susvara: The most difficult headphones of this test. You'll have to prefer the high gain and the balanced output of the DMP-Z1 to affirm...
