    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I have a question for those of you who have experience with both A105 and A306. When I owned A105, which I absolutely loved, the sound was kind of soft and lacked the oomph of A55. Did Sony fixed it in A300 series or is is about the same?

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Thanks. I might have overacted. I was listening to DSD sample songs. MP3's sound much louder.

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Just got WM1AM2 directly from Sony US. It's volume capped, I couldn't believe my ears. NW-A105 is much louder. We are talking 20-25 clicks difference. What a disappointment! On a positive note, I love its sound signature. Sending it back and ordering a Japanese version from eBay.

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Could you anyone comment on WM1AM2 vs SP2000CU musicality please? I value musicality above all other aspects of sound quality and have owned multiple Sony DAP's which never disappointed me in that regard. I guess I'm itching to try another brand. I tried SP1000CU but didn't find it very...

    SONY NW-ZX500

    I love Sony's tuning and have been using their DAP's for years. Everytime i try a new DAP from another manufacturer, I always come back to Sony. It's just so musical and non-fatiguing for long listening sessions. This is how I set up Sony's Android DAP's which slightly improves sound quality by...

    SONY NW-ZX500

    I'd advise against updating to V4.02. With the new firmware, sound signature is dull and not very engaging. Bass became flat and sounds like one note. There is less sparkle in treble as well. I'm disappointed. Also, I'd like to add is that, if you don't care about balanced, NW-A100 offers a...

    Astell&Kern SA700 - Past meets Present

    If anyone has an older version of SA700 firmware, please pm me. I updated to v1.25 and don't like what I'm hearing. If I'm not able to downgrade the firmware, I'm sending it back for a refund. Thank you.

    AirPods Max

    Even if it's the case, I can see how APM's could cannibalize sales of mid-fi gear. The likes of Sennheiser, IBasso, Sony and even Astell&Kern should be on the lookout.
