    SONY NW-ZX700

    I just thought about to sell my zx lineup. The 707 vs Am1 is like your top football club A squad vs B squad. Its rare they are playing the one league tier close. But then I remember the story of obtaining each one :) So hard.

    SONY NW-ZX700

    My immediate impressions after upgrade: 1) Response is much faster (opening WM app or Spotify app) 2) Brighter or better, sharper screen

    SONY NW-ZX700

    I did a little side-by-side comparison as of the firmware discussions (using M9 with Sony Kimber, same EQ setup). To my ears, I dont here any change in the bass, sub-bass, or what so ever. What I hear thou is a slightly brighter sound in the new firmware, making the factory one sound dull and...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    Someone at this forum has mentioned, that the case is designed to stay on forever :) Well I agree with this. As I like to take the players out of their original cases to hold then in my hand from time to time, this is what resulted with ckl-nwzx700. At the top edge, it tear apart slighty. So...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    I’ve been listening to mine for a while. I got the Japanese version but so far I haven’t been needing high gain at all. This os vs iphone comparison :) I am glad to hold the precious walkman vs iphone what is just a telephone :) 707 cant make a call, but it can produce much better music than...

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Just to keep all set here there is a similar thread where some people would like to confirm that 707 is on par with 1AM2. I just had my favourite music released on Spotify (friday is the release day!). First I had my shuffle-rollercoaster-hours on 707 than switched to this beast just to clarify...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    Having both, I cant agree here that 707 would be a better DAP then 1AM2. My subjective impression is a way better look & feel (OS wise and grip wise) where 707 wins. But the soundstage is two steps higher with 1AM2, but again, as of subjective point of view. My impression is that it sounds...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    Funny. Completely opposite with me :) I had few As, never had the zx100, zx300 is resting in the dock with cmtsx7 (was great) and over zx507 it is way better. I am enjoying it, as of sound, os, battery and its design - way better. EDIT: For my other comparison, I didnt compare the display...

    SONY NW-ZX700

    Yes it does respond way better then NWWM1AM2 with its Android version. To me, ZX707 is not just an upgrade to ZX507, but rather a better alternative to WM1AM2. Anyway, no gain (JP version) slamming at 106/120 with IER-M9 (4.4..) cant get more… I should get the EU version finally :)

    SONY NW-ZX700

    I didnt, but I am playing with ZX707 since ytd here and then and the battery dropped from 90 (i think there stopped charging at battery care on) to 56, with wifi still on. I was iOS raised using iPhone ever since, but this android version is a beast compared to the one in NWWM1AM2.

    SONY NW-ZX700

    So lets compare how I see it. Mostly I do listen to techno/dance music, have used the same EQ settings on all of them, tested with IER-M9 (Kimber Kable). NWZX707 vs. NWZX507 (burnt in I guess) Its hard even to compare these two. ZX707 seems much better to me soundwise, it does sound richer, has...

    I bought these https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/B0BS3DZHHQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Unfortunately, they are behind my ZX707 which already came yesterday. So unpacking has to wait as I dont use the DAPs without screen protector. I bought the DAP through an Ebay...

    Order a JP version with original case at Ebay, was shipped today through Fedex, estimated delivery 2/3/2023 before 6:00 pm. As usually, I believe the customs themselves in this banana republic will take longer :)) Lets see what drama and cost it brings this time.

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Honestly I am sure. I feel the dap output is just too overhelming for these cans. But they do a great job with the lower codec. And NC is fantastic. Have all the WFs, but these are trully NC. Great product.

    From another space. I finally got the 1000MXs, mark 5. Boy is this another xperience playing thru iphone, they do better with iphone then with nwwm1am2 🙃 I love this alternative setup not being a weirdo with kimber kable rising from my pocket. Didnt get the chance to try previous versions, but...

    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    As a basshead.. I tested the 1AM2 with Can U Kick It - Starsplash. Using it with IER-M9 and Kimber, the 1AM2 sits way above NWZX507. But, for me it can't outbeat the WM1Z, sort of I can't explain why :) The M9 with Kimber is sounding so rich and wide as its supposed to sound and so bass-brutal...

    Coming back to your past post as I am looking for THE sd card for my incoming 1AM2. Now using Sandisk Ultras in all my Walkmans. I am thinking of Extreme or even the Extreme PRO. Is it really that step up to choose the PRO f.e.? Did you have a chance to compare that? Thanks!

    This was exactly my situation this morning with NWWM1AM2 bundle order. Payment needed revision. I have changed the payment method from Mastercard to Visa and few minutes later, payment was deducted from the card. Waiting for shipment now :-) Coming from CEE region.

    SONY NW-ZX500

    Sorry maybe my post was not readable well. IERM9s sound much better with KIMBER cable, way much better than the original. I meant I even gave up the great ergonomic of the original cable as KIMBER ergonomics are not that great. But the setup with KIMBER sounds like galaxy way better. Sorry for...

    Honestly, my eyes do only focus when someone here mentions how good the NWZX507 sounds with IERM9. Yeah they do. But I must mention, they do sound hell better with appropriate KIMBER Sony cable. Way better. As much as the original ergonomic of the original IERM9s is compared to the appropriate...
