As i understand dx200 is very close to lpg and sony, or even in the same league. Ofcourse it's just initial imressions of one person. Need more time and people to draw final conclusion

from what i read is he said the signatures are different betwen sony wm1z and dx200, where dx 200 is more of the typical sabre signature, while the wm1z is meaty and full sounding

i do not think he meant it in this way, but from his impressions i am very eager to get one


From what he said, the dx200 should be the DAP everyone want as it sounds in the same league as WM1Z, has DAC standalone function, and pricing at sub $1,000. That is so damn awesome already, and in my language that means it is better than wm1z

I will be glad to buy your wm1z if you have one for 1000 USD so you buy the dx200 :), and then i will buy the dx 200 as well

To all, you are welcome, will say more when I have more. A this stage it is hard to say with many iems to try.
the dial and buttons are very good. The UI is more buggy than the Sony's, but clearly faster.


I am assuming that Google Play Store is included to download streaming apps???

Mimouille you meant dx200 is much better than WM1Z ?
Where did you read that honestly? I never even hinted that.

I terms of feel and build the WM1Z has a luxury feeling that other DAPs don't have.

In terms of sound, the WM1Z and the DX200 have a different approach. The Sony is more smooth sounding and slightly warmer.

Yea that's kinda what I meant..

I only liked the ex1000. That's a classic from Sony. Then again one of the New hybrid models (XBA-N3AP, not XBA-N1AP) is actually a very very good mid fi offering, one of the first earphones at that price range that i would recommend. Of course it's not TOTL, but it's a great earphone nonetheless.

Every Sony dap I had was thick, smooth and warm sounding.

ZX1 was probably closest I've heard to an iBasso similarly. It was quite a different take for Sony.

 
That's an interesting perspective - it surprises me.  I haven't heard the DX80, but I would absolutely not, in any way, consider the ZX1 to sound even remotely similar to the DX100, for example...
