    Double Helix Cables Thread

    Are you using the Chimera cable management clip? If you are, try without the clip as it should open the soundstage even more.

    The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!

    Try J3 in this version https://mega.nz/file/OuxECRzK#lfdUptP5HC_ExA011jMHofJ93Cq_FePOxZyHaOFhH6I. I use that region with Plus v2 and 1Z tuning on my 1Z and find it can't be beat. Natural full with a wide soundstage.

    Sony Z1R....listening impressions only

    I got a DHC Complement C cable for use on my LCD-X with a 3.5mm to Audeze DIN adapter. It worked great, but when I went to use it on my Z1R, no sound. In talking with Peter he built the cable to work with newer 3.5mm headphones. Previously the wiring he used would have allowed it to with with...

    I would pass as I have one and found it wasn't better than the stock cable.

    Sony Z1R....listening impressions only

    I can highly recommend the DHC Prion4 OCC Silver cable or if you are looking for something lower cost the Complement C. I haven't had a chance to hear it but the Complement C15 which uses 2 Complement C wires for each channel. Why OCC? OCC (Ohno Continuous Casting) casting avoids contaminants...

    Sony Z1R....listening impressions only

    I have the LCD-X and with a OCC copper cable (DHC Complement C). I feel it makes a great complement.

    The 1Z has a deeper better defined low end, and a smoother wider soundstage.

    The 1.5TB is only available as an Ultra. The only difference between Ultra and Extreme is write speed which is only an issue when first copying music on to it.

    The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!

    The TAZ sound is different, the biggest being that it upsamples everything to 352.8kHz for all PCM and has DSD remastering as an option. The other difference is that it has more power output.

    The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!

    When you use the WM1Z with the TA-ZH1ES, the WM1Z is only a transport. All of the sound processing is done in the TA-ZH1ES.

    Campfire Audio Ara

    Silver plated cables accentuate the high-end. So switch to a pure or OCC copper cable. It will also improve the bass.

    Campfire - Solaris

    I have the Solaris OG, 2020 and SE and use them with either a WM1A or MW1Z. I've found that the cable does make a big difference. When I'm using the WM1A I find my DHC Clone Silver (OCC silver) tames the bass and opens up the mids and highs. With the WM1Z I use a DHC Complement C (OCC copper)...

    Sony NW-ZX300

    When I'm creating a new playlist I use Metadatics on my Mac to gather the songs I want in my playlist. From there in Metadatics I do an export to get the files with path (I use the same folder structure for my source files and on my WM1A/Z and ZX300). Then I manually edit the export file with...

    Sony NW-ZX300

    I've found that the "Update Database" function doesn't always work correctly. What I've seen is if I update a manual playlist, the new or replaced track isn't reflected in the playlist. I have to either delete the playlist, have the update run and then reload the playlist. Otherwise I have to do...

    Sony NW-ZX300

    The firmware image is encrypted, so the only way to possibly make a change is via custom firmware. Maybe MrWalkman can do that.

    These headphone deserve a quality cable to deliver what they are capable of.

    Sony Z1R....listening impressions only

    The first thing you should do is replace the stock cable with an OCC or oxygen free copper cable. The stock cable is silver plated and makes the high end harsh and sucks out the mid-range.
