SONY NW-ZX700
I just thought about to sell my zx lineup. The 707 vs Am1 is like your top football club A squad vs B squad. Its rare they are playing the one league tier close. But then I remember the story of obtaining each one :) So hard.- gobb

SONY NW-ZX700
My immediate impressions after upgrade: 1) Response is much faster (opening WM app or Spotify app) 2) Brighter or better, sharper screen- gobb

SONY NW-ZX700
I did a little side-by-side comparison as of the firmware discussions (using M9 with Sony Kimber, same EQ setup). To my ears, I dont here any change in the bass, sub-bass, or what so ever. What I hear thou is a slightly brighter sound in the new firmware, making the factory one sound dull and...- gobb

Someone at this forum has mentioned, that the case is designed to stay on forever :) Well I agree with this. As I like to take the players out of their original cases to hold then in my hand from time to time, this is what resulted with ckl-nwzx700. At the top edge, it tear apart slighty. So...- gobb

I’ve been listening to mine for a while. I got the Japanese version but so far I haven’t been needing high gain at all. This os vs iphone comparison :) I am glad to hold the precious walkman vs iphone what is just a telephone :) 707 cant make a call, but it can produce much better music than...- gobb

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
Just to keep all set here there is a similar thread where some people would like to confirm that 707 is on par with 1AM2. I just had my favourite music released on Spotify (friday is the release day!). First I had my shuffle-rollercoaster-hours on 707 than switched to this beast just to clarify...- gobb

Having both, I cant agree here that 707 would be a better DAP then 1AM2. My subjective impression is a way better look & feel (OS wise and grip wise) where 707 wins. But the soundstage is two steps higher with 1AM2, but again, as of subjective point of view. My impression is that it sounds...- gobb

Funny. Completely opposite with me :) I had few As, never had the zx100, zx300 is resting in the dock with cmtsx7 (was great) and over zx507 it is way better. I am enjoying it, as of sound, os, battery and its design - way better. EDIT: For my other comparison, I didnt compare the display...- gobb

Yes it does respond way better then NWWM1AM2 with its Android version. To me, ZX707 is not just an upgrade to ZX507, but rather a better alternative to WM1AM2. Anyway, no gain (JP version) slamming at 106/120 with IER-M9 (4.4..) cant get more… I should get the EU version finally :)- gobb

I didnt, but I am playing with ZX707 since ytd here and then and the battery dropped from 90 (i think there stopped charging at battery care on) to 56, with wifi still on. I was iOS raised using iPhone ever since, but this android version is a beast compared to the one in NWWM1AM2.- gobb

So lets compare how I see it. Mostly I do listen to techno/dance music, have used the same EQ settings on all of them, tested with IER-M9 (Kimber Kable). NWZX707 vs. NWZX507 (burnt in I guess) Its hard even to compare these two. ZX707 seems much better to me soundwise, it does sound richer, has...- gobb

I bought these https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/B0BS3DZHHQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Unfortunately, they are behind my ZX707 which already came yesterday. So unpacking has to wait as I dont use the DAPs without screen protector. I bought the DAP through an Ebay...- gobb
