Selling mine is F/S section if anyone is interested with Sony case included.

Yt music is now up scales to 32 192

Interesting, when playing an MQA track on tidal with Hi-Res streaming turned on, DSEEHX has no effect when turned on or off! Switch to a non MQA track and you can here it intiating. Seems like Sony may have implemented a bypass for MQA tracks!!!

32bit 192khz + dseehx seems pointless doesnt it? The walkman is already upscaling everything to 32 192, what is the dssehx doing then?

The reason to buy a 507 is for streaming. Period. And maybe the search function in the Walkman app. 😅

This is just silly, telling people not to update there fw which dramatically improves performance because of a completely unfounded claim (sony mentions no sq signature changes in fw notes)

This is such non-sense. Every-time a new firmware comes out for a DAP people think there is some grand conspiracy where the sound signature is changed. Your brain is playing tricks on you.

https://www.phileweb.com/sp/news/d-av/202005/28/50419.html "By applying the update, the contents of streaming services such as Amazon Music HD and mora qualitas can be played in high resolution without being down-converted. Up to now, it was down-converted to 48kHz / 16bit, but it is now...

Woooooh! We are in business boys! Mines off the market.

I've always wondered if the copper block actually makes a difference to the SQ. It's seems snak-eoily to me.

thats in euros dude

Sony really needs to hurry up and fix this sample/bit rate debauchery. There is a noticeable dip in SQ when not using the stock player due to the resampling. I've done blind a/b and can tell the difference

That's not a for sure thing though, uaap even says so. Any measurements?

do you know if UAPP hi-res driver works with the zx507 and delivers unmolested sample/bit rates?

You realize dmp z1 dac uses 1.50 amp chips from ti and 15 dollar dac ICs from akm...

Nope says In stock and ship within 1-2 days and paid for express

Anyone here order from accessory jack? Just placed an order for a zx507 on Saturday and it still says pending today...

Thank God sony is fixing the SRC. I'm officially back in the market for a 507

Where in these firmwares do they say anything is modified with the modulator?

The only way firmware can effect SQ is if it is applying a hidden eq or adding distortion.
