ZX500‘s sound adjustment is now a standalone app, and in DSD setting in the walkman player app have no native option now, the sound adjustment app has a Direct selector for playing directly from all source without any DSP. So they had the magic tricks now.

Seems sony had enhanced the sound enhancement application in ZX500, as it can apply to all apps running in ZX500 and effective to both wired phone jacks. And sony is pure digital source to digital amp signal processing, maybe that’s why they can do it.

Thanks ac67, seems oratory’s setting gives more frequency balance, while the JP setting is more engaging (or boosted?). Saved both anyway ;)

Thanks for the reference :L3000: oratory1990 But, oh, these parameters are not so applicable in the walkman EQ with fixed frequency bands. And I found my previous EQ actually sourced from this JP site, its not specific for walkman but suitable for 10 bands EQ similar to that in walkman. 10...

The sony silicone tip maybe a bit uncomfortable, I changed to Final type E tips and I am now very happy with my IER-Z1R:L3000:

They do have the kimber kable as official upgrade, so the stock one may still have some reservations, as you can see they are still a bit thin with an extra layer of silk shield. But many other IEM makers also reserved better cables as upgrade options to their flagship IEMs. Anyway, for...

Got my IER Z1R at Tokyo. A bit suprise mine’s serial is still under 1000. The V or U shape sound maybe caused by the stock cable. I switched to my nobunaga silver / copper hybrid cable does changed the sound more balanced and a bit more suited to my taste. This bad boy seems have some...
