Does it run streaming apps?

The Sony WM1A and 1Z don’t run streaming apps. They do have BT receiver mode, I connect a G Note 10 (LDAC) to my Sony WM1A and I also find the RHA CL2s to pair beautifully with the WM1A.

Completely agree, the pairing with the WM1A is something special, for a portable setup it would be very hard to do better, at least for me.

Out of curiosity, what's the different wm1a to the zx2? Zx2 has android advantage for spotify etc but does it sound the same?

The WM1A is in a different league sound wise. If you want android, maybe look into HIBY R6Pro, or the DX220.
I don't stream. all my files are on a Micro SD Card.
ADD: There are a lot of AK players used for sale right now too.

But how's the synergy though. I had m11 before and returned. It sounds closed. Musics come nearer. I like my music to be as wide as possible.

I'll be finding that out for myself by Thursday! It's gonna take week or 2 to burn in the new CL2, tho... Decided I'm definitely getting the PW 1960, or even the 1950, gotta research it...

WM1A has a very wide soundstage, it sounds very natural and musical. The newest firmware 3.01 is a perfect match for the Cl2 in my opinion.
As far as the other players go, I am sure people who are using them can help out with the how the pairing sounds.

Wow!! Would love to hear what your impressions if you go that route.

your dx120 doesnt sound wide?

 

[cr3ativ3]

It can’t steam ... it’s music only

GOTCHA!
Considering if they both has the same sound signature, dx120 isnt wide then?
