Or they can support the product they sold.............

Has anyone contacted sony about content transfer software for the MAC not working? I've been trying to get fixed for months without any progress. The customer service has been laughable. Anyone have any connection to SONY or can get this in the right hands?

I have the Sony WM1A and prefer the 4.4mm input.

ugh... why? That is a bummer.

I have not heard or felt anything from the unit as I have had my IEMs in :) That said the sony HAP-Z1ES does indeed make clicking noises when going from Hi-RES to standard definition audio formats. It's not bad but it is indeed there. MY guess is the these units re calibrate to the format...

Hey Everyone, I've been reading a lot of the posts here and basically enjoying my player. I read the mods by one poster, and was wondering if anyone has looked into swapping the memory in the unit for the 400 gb card? It would be pretty awesome to have two 400 gb cards paired with the battery...

I'd rather buy music at that point. Buying a 1k player to dump 1k worth of mods into it and void a warranty doesn't pass my common sense test. That said I'm sure its a great player and the mods are worthy to the buyer!

STOP IT. I was fine until I was reading these posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Guys, I've owned this unit since it came out and it's rippin. That said, I had an issue where I had to refresh my hard drive that the unit is mapped too. When I mapped it to the new hard drive and file structure, the music re-ripped to the unit showing it as duplicates. I had to reset the...

i honestly don't know :) I never played it straight through, but I am charging once a week, and getting more than I need from it. I was also turning it on and off, and loading music so it was charging between then as well. To be blunt was not following the best practices here. I'll see how it...

Ok this is all good to know. I do find the battery to go faster on DSD files and hi res files. Overall very happy with this unit. It’s a killer set up.

The back flap, does it get in the way, or does it hold pretty close to the case?

Who makes these cases again? I like that blue one.

How is everyone charging their device? I currently have the charge up to 90% box checked. Do you leave the device on between uses or is everyone powering on and off? I know this sounds basic but really want to get as much life out of the battery as possible. Thanks

I have the limbers and they sound really good with my SE 846’s.

Gang - I took delivery of the Sony / Kimber cable today and plugged my shures into it (SE 846) and it’s impressive how much better the balanced jack is. Definitely more powerful and doesn’t seem to cloud things. Very very good. For those on the fence, get a balanced cable. I can’t speak to...

Anybody using a leather case with their unit and care to share? I have a rubber case that forms to the unit and is very nice, but would like something leather. Any ideas out there?

I'm on a MAC, and using the sony software. What do I need to get?

For those of you looking at this, this is my experience with the 400gb card. The 400gb micro SD card works as advertised, so that is a good to go. What is a little annoying is you need to manually manage the internal sotrage until full, then kick over to the external storage using the music...

The cable is a collaboration with Kimber for their 4.4mm jack. It has MMCX connectors as well. I ordered this and expect to get it shortly. I ordered it over the moon audio cause I figure Sony did enough research and R&D to know how this should pair with the player.

Those look like the 64 audio filters.

That's pretty portable! :)

This is the next logical step. If the DAP can be modded with Kimber cables, and shielding then you are getting closer to the 1Z. If the cost of a few hundred dollars it a tough one but at some point you are better off just going all in with the 1Z. For me I’d have to hear significant...

I’d say do it but it’s really up to you. If you clean it down first like I mentioned it should be fine. That said I don’t handle my Walkman the same as I do my smartphone and I don’t have a screen on my smartphone..... so don’t listen to me I don’t know what I’m doing any more. :)

Wipe it down with alcohol wipes first then spray it with an air can to get all the dust out of the way.
