Anyone else please have some impressions on WM1Z Walkman

 

[Allanmarcus]

beyerdynamic had a sneak peak of the unannounced and unreleased Amiron open "home oriented" $600 headphone. A light feeling and more V shaped version of the DT1990.



Different fabric than beyer normal for the pads. Fabric headband, not leather.

Hello all. I'm going to attempt to live stream the entire show floor of CanJam, one exhibitor at a time today. I will start broadcasting from the pavilion around 10:00 am and won't stop until everyone is covered. Please feel free to jump into the conversation and ask questions directly to the manufacturers. I would love to hear what you think and what product info you need answers to.
 
The stream will be hosted at the link below, see you there.

The Cayin team invite all HeadFier to drop by our booth at the CanJam RMAF. As we are a little far away, it is difficult for us to join the regular HeadFi meets, so we want to meet as many new friends as possible during our visit.



We have both Desktop and portables setup in our little booth, you should find something interesting in regardless of your focus in the HeadFi hobby.

Our latest i5 Android DAP is the star product in our RMAF booth, and we have organized a World Tour alongside the RMAF period. For those who has tried out our i5 at the RMAF and is interested to experience the player in more detail, they can sign up our World Tour immediately at the following link:

We have also debut our USB-C to RCA coaxial cable, this is an unique idea in our DAP line up, please come and check out if this is a viable solution down the road.

Interesting. From the maker of the head trio amp.

Questyle has setup the live UE demo station in the CanJam tent! Come try the whole UE line up!

It has so far proven challenging to complete the SHaG cards, due to the spread-out nature of the exhibitors, with most exhibitors being in the CanJam Tent Pavilion, but nearly 20 exhibitors being located in the CanJam Evergreen E&F ballrooms (two ballrooms joined together) in the hotel.

@Jude the strike through has me in stitches. Kudos to everybody for overcoming the challenge. It has been a great show. I'm back in my hotel sick today but I'll be back rocking out tomorrow.

 

[Allanmarcus]

As the second person to turn in the SHaG card, I recommend the rest of you just forget about it. Just listen and enjoy yourselves. It's not worth it for you to fill out your cards as it reduces my chances to win.


For those here in Denver, anyone up for dinner tonight?

I'm in the Sony room on the 8th floor. Holy crap does the NW-WM1Z weigh a lot!



Z1R has very good bass impact and lush mids. But like the Z7, the Z1 sounds a little rolled off on the top end to me. Sony really doesn't like treble.

and many people don't think it is the "mother of Z7" or the "Z7non andrenaline". How is 1Z ? More detail in 1Z please...and not the Z1r

RMAF. It's all about the sound
