You can toggle on the "AVLS (volume limit)" switch in the sound settings.I have the opposite question: is it possible to set an arbitrary volume limit like you can on the iPhone?

The Sony app can read playlists, but doesn't make them? It does allow you to make bookmark lists and add your play queue to a bookmark list. I'm not really a fan of the Sony app's UI, so I don't use it.Can someone comment on playlist functionality compared to the previous non-Android versions? I've searched so many youtube videos and can't find any examples of somebody working with playlists.
- Can I create new playlists on the device itself?
- Can I add entire albums at a time to playlists, and not just individual tracks?
- Are the playlists visible outside of Sony's music app?
As far as I can tell, you can't set your own limit. There is just a toggle for AVLS, no other setting for it. I guess AVLS combined with the "Dynamic Normalizer" would keep things from accidentally blowing your eardrums?So I can't set my own volume limit? I can only enable/disable some volume limit that Sony has decided?
Hi guys!
I'm currently looking for a stable DAP below $1000. I mostly use Amazon Music HD, and some offline FLACs.
I am leaning towards ZX507, but wondering if the battery life is good or subpar especially while streaming.
I will greatly appreciate if you could share experiences regarding this.
(I currently have multi-BA iems which are relatively sensitive.)
I am also considering the following. Will try to audition them:
Ibasso DX160 - I read a lot of noise and connectivity(BT) issues in the discussion forum
Hiby R5 - feels good in the hand, usability seems okayish than DX160? since I haven't read issues regarding wireless connection
R6 Pro - recommended by many reviewers, but I've seen reports of EMI issues when near phones or routers
Shanling M6 - still waiting for release
Thank you!
I'm on the exact same boat (DAP below $1k) ZX500's battery life is longer than all of the above so I'm leaning towards the ZX500 too.I used to own the superior iBasso model DX220 and returned it. The device was extremely laggy. Never buy anything from iBasso !
Sony is known for great battery life but also lack of driving power, iBasso DAP have high output power and can drive full sized cans so yes they drain more battery. I owned the DX220 as well, it doesn’t drain more battery than the N6ii with the dual DAC chip and similar driving power.
Extremely laggy is overstated... it doesn’t have a chip as fast as smartphones and runs android so... just like any other android DAP. Yes R6 Pro (I owned it also) is faster with the SnapDragon 425 but not night and day. N6ii is not really that much faster than DX220 either.
I don’t know what chip Sony used for the ZX507, but they only have 3.6 inches and lower resolution so display will take less to be fast.
Even as a huge Sony fanboy I cannot disagree with this.I am doing an extensive research and Fiio M11 Pro appears as the better option. Change my mind.
Costs $649 at US which will probably be $200 cheaper than the ZX507
Bigger screen with higher resolution
More inputs/ outputs
Much more output power ( Sony 50-200 mW vs Fiio 294- 460 mW - unbalanced-balanced respectively @16 ohms)
Faster UI according to users
More features and tools
Active and helpful customer service team vs Sony's very big but dead team.
Even as a huge Sony fanboy I cannot disagree with this.
Fellas, ZX500 has the same audio circuitry as ZX300, it just adds features (wifi, streaming, android apps etc).
Really ? I belive that there should be some improvements of the audio circuitry.
