Sony NW-ZX300
Quick couple of questions - I'm having issues with Bluetooth not being found on devices. I've tried my Mi8 phone, Huawei tablet and parent's iPhone. None can seem to see the player. Any ideas or pointers? Also, if updating firmware do you have to rockbox the unit again? Cheers- FatherVic

What is it that actually happens during this burn in? If the sound changes during the use of a product, surely that would be electrically measurable in some way? I remember another forum I was in where an engineer would say there was no such thing... IIRC in this thread that burning in was only...- FatherVic

Please note my previous boob and amendment as just dug out the cable to try again. Earlier in this thread there is mention of the NWH10 dock. Although I can't comment personally on it feedback on a question was if it is compatible with the 300 and the reply was yes. Bit more than I'd like to...- FatherVic

Just tried my adapter again I used from my A15 but alas, no. Thought I had done but must be mistaken.... Was a little while back.- FatherVic

Had a chance to listen to the Z1Rs yesterday. Not impressed..... I was hoping for big things. Definitely not my cup of tea.- FatherVic

Sorry if I've missed it in previous posts but I can't see an exhibitor list for the London event either. Will you guys be attending there this year?- FatherVic

I'd assume they're the 2 pin as standard? If reshelled, is it possible to change to an MMCX?- FatherVic

CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread
That is incredibly informative and helps a great deal! How much and can they be reshelled for custom? And if so how much for a reshell? I was thinking that last night... Not sure if the Shure or just the music but I was finding some cymbal use a little too much on the ears. Without trialling...- FatherVic

CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread
The 4s are more than I'd like to spend. As much as I like fun I think I'm leaning more towards the 3s for greater openness. I've read some reviews with comparisons but with brands I have no experience with. Edit: forgot to add most likely custom acrylic. Using my Shure with full sleeve custom...- FatherVic

CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread
Hey guys and gals, Probably a loaded question in here but I'm looking for an upgrade to my Shure 215s. Been going through and reading a lot of good things about the CAs but also on my radar is some of the Fearless range. Any thoughts or comments between the two? At a push could possibly stretch...- FatherVic

Swipe up to get in to your sound settings, then press settings button and then below the saved sound settings should be the equaliser to switch.- FatherVic

The only ones I ever really used were about £30-35 about 15 years ago and nothing beyond that. Next it was the first gen Bose for some time before moving the the Shure. I'll have take a peek. There's a Sony store not too far, see what they have. Edit: just had a look at the Sony site. The N3...- FatherVic

I appreciate the feedback. No one is perfect though and could just as easily have been a bad batch or whatever. I'm always willing to give the benefit of the doubt. Did you want more or as much bass from what you moved from? What did you have originally? How does the mid roughly compare with the...- FatherVic

Looking to get some feedback for upgrade options for IEMs. Currently running SE215 with custom sleeves and not long received a balanced cable. Still to run in that socket but got me back to some more in depth listening. Running Grado RS2 for normal cans (need EQ tailoring for me) and Bryston/PMC...- FatherVic

Different. I can hear the clicks when I ramp up the volume but it's not the same and I don't play at those levels..... It is indeed .dsf I experience it with. I tried mp3 and FLAC without issue and also switched back to SE output again without issue playing the hires files. There's only one...- FatherVic

I was playing with some new tunes last night and came across a bit of a weird noise whilst using the on screen play/pause, skip or even the time slider itself. They're tiny little clicks in the background.... Anyone else experience this too? I did try with other files but seem to be there...- FatherVic

Depends on my 'phones. I'm happy enough using direct with the IEM, but with the Grado I do need to adjust the EQ slightly. Using my friend's Senns I'd need to contour that a little too.... I don't use the other enhancements.- FatherVic

Sony NW-ZX300
I'm aware that all these things will undoubtedly have an effect. Having had this for only a relatively short space of time all I can do is compare it to my use of my previous A10 and HD5 predecessors etc. I only run a minor EQ adjustment but no other filters. That I will not compromise on as I...- FatherVic

Sorry, when I meant left scratching my head I was meaning how it seems counterintuitive to have a volume restriction but also ends up as a battery drain.... Mod is now done. As I mentioned in my previous post the settings were confusing as the player was set to CEW2 but the pressure level was...- FatherVic

I had a feeling you were hinting at that and was scratching my head to think how the hell that works..... Gonna plug in shortly and have another look at these settings and see what happens. Thanks- FatherVic

Yeah I'm in the UK. I've gone through a lot of this thread but in the end it beat me..... I believe it to be the UK version and capped. I did have a look at modding the player but kinda got confused as the settings already seemed to half correspond and didn't accept my final command so I just...- FatherVic

Hey there Just looking to get some advice or feedback about battery life. Picked up a new unit after some serious deliberation and was lucky to see one come up on Amazon during Black Friday. Been getting used to the player and quite like it. However more recently I do find myself charging the...- FatherVic
