I really have high hopes for Sony to not implement the full cripple, atleast keeping the power output somewhat high.

I ordered from Amazon Germany aswell 😬

Mine should arrive on Wednesday, imma update you if nobody from EU did it before.

Yepp I can feel your pain, but they're the inventors of the original walkman after all.. They can afford to be super pricey :sweat_smile::unamused: The swappable modules are optional tho :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Dont forget to consider the form factor! The DX240 is way thinner and smaller...

Ah ye well in that case it would fit you pretty well! I wanna get the Hifiman Sundara next, which is a planar headphone, so the lower power output sadly wouldn't work for me.. Maybe they handle it differently this time, but i doubt it. :confounded: Anyways, the M11 Plus will suffice for quite...

Haha ye I didn't mean entry level in budget but it's my first dip into dap's in general :sweat_smile: About the Sony: I'm just concerned about the high possibility of them crippling the device too much because of the EU-regulations. If they do it the same way as with their other devices they...

I was in the same boat. Have been waiting for the Sony WM1AM2, but knowing that they will cripple the power output like crazy i cant be asked spending 1.4k € for that device. Especially since it's unavailable everywhere lul.. I went with the FiiO M11 Plus as my "entry" dap and i'm not...

I'm kinda confused: The German sony-website, listing the 1AM2, also shows the 60mW and 250mW output WITH high gain. Is it a standard practice to outright stay quiet about capping power output? Is there even any hope for a full powered 1AM2 being sold in europe? For reference (german website)...

Alright good to know, i was looking at the u6t from 64 Audio. One of my Friends has the u12t and i really like those. I'm just not willing to shell out over 2000€ for headphones (yet).

They seem interesting, do they differ a lot from the MEST? Thank you for the recommendation!

I would like my music to be mostly balanced with some warmth and a bit of emphasis on the bass. I have been super into bass heavy headphones but i wanna get away from it and try out the more balanced approach and see how i like it, especially since i listen to a lot of genres it really might up...

Nice, it really seems pretty good! I'll look into it, thank you!

Yeah that's true.. Well thank you for the info, i guess A&K won't be on my top list anymore.

Interesting. I didn't know about the M6 until now, imma look into it. Can you briefly explain to me, what makes the M6 stand out compared to its competition? And thanks a lot for the suggestion!

Ah that's a bummer, I didn't know about that. Thanks for the info! I want my devices to be atleast somewhat futureproof.. But the older devices losing support might also be related to the older versions of andriod used in these devices.. Anyway its annoying.
