July? Where are you ordering from? :O

I buy 90% of the music so I mostly use Sony's app. I also have Tidal and Apple Music, but that's more for testing new albums before buying (or listening to stuff that are impossible to find to buy). If HR or DSD, I use Direct. If CD and rarely compressed (cough iTunes, cough), I use DSEE High...

it's really slow for today's standard. it's 1A at best but I've seen 0.5A too which wouldn't even charge the device if you keep using it at the same time (which in the end, screws battery). I'm almost never using the USBs from IFE to charge, only if I'm sleeping or charging the watch :))

Yes, even in economy. You can check seatguru for your airline and aircraft type and see if it has one. There's some exceptions, like LH doesn't put one in economy, but the majority of airlines I flown with has it. Look for the AC Power sign :) They're usually below your seat and the seat next...

Look below your seat :D Long haul planes usually have a 110V plug.

I'm going back to Japan at the end of the month. Need to get new bikinis for IER-M9 Maybe maybe a case for the Walkman (but not very convinced so far) And probably I'll marry the walkman to a new pair of MDR-MV1

ZX-707 and IER-M9 in comply bikinis

Like that, but less ugly :darthsmile: Dunno why but I find the T+A nearly very ugly... feel like there's nothing special about them, not a single thing in terms of design.

Oh jeez... There is definitely a market for 2k headphones, but if they make them active only and get the DAC/AMP/ Whatever electronics obligatory on the jack, who's going to buy them for hi-res? For 2k they better make them passive headphones focused instead of bluetooth focused, with bluetooth...

Yeah but I don't listen to spatial sound... Also, new update. Changelog: Improved the improvements Secured the security

I used it once I was curious but didn't see anything interesting in the app... I have IER-M9 and selected them but dunno, doesn't look like made for wired :))

:k701smile: I was feeling like there was too much silence on this topic in the past few weeks :))

:beyersmile: Well, to some extent we are an almost secret underground cult :beyersmile: or that was my work colleague's reaction when they saw I have a walkman and I use wired IEMs

I tried it but can't hear a difference (both direct and non direct source)

This is something... new How can a language setting impact SQ?

But like, how much does it costs? :)) This is an entire mystery, tried to find the price but can't see it anywhere :))

What sorcery is this and how much it costs? :D

Be ready to pay german tax :P

Looks good but 50 EUR... cmon :rolling_eyes:

Yeah I turned it off too. Tho it’s a bit strange to unlock directly in the player 😆

OMG... Been fighting with this the entire weekend. For the god's sake why i couldn't get DSD out. Hi res player, music center, foobar, nothing. like the heck and finally only now found your post, thanks, and... sony didn't publish one downloadable driver, why would they. they literally had one...

Is there a way to make the Lock Screen media control full page? 😭 it’s decapitating Cesaria and other artists 😭

I have TZ-200 as @Vamp898 recommended. TZ-400 has the nozzle slightly bigger and my understanding that it might come off [much] easier. About tech defender, dunno. I only used the ones with but I'm satisfied.

So it's not that bad in the end I ordered a Samsung ultimate 512 SD card, picking it up later today. I have a curiosity tho. Do you use the DAP at home only or on the go as well? I tend to use it at home only (or in the office, when I was working in the office) but never on the go/ transit/...

The yen went down. The price stayed the same (94.000¥ new). It’s crazy. I just came back from Japan and I felt like I was in Southeast Asia due to Yen’s devaluation. Family said it’s bad tho for them 😬 So in January 2023 I paid 3122 PLN/ $780. Now it would be 2500 PLN/ $620 for a new unit...
