i have to say i normally would listen to music on direct source and i have been with the sony but i feel like it lacks volume in the lower end (yes ive updated etc). really noticeable in the car using the aux plug.

anyway i decided to mess with the eq, ive also turned on dc linear. have to say it sounds much better now. like really good. i dont like clear audio as i think it sounds echoey. here are my settings, i started on excited and then tailored it to be less bassy using custom

If returning it isn't an option you can try to update to international firmware (which has Google Play Store). Turn off wifi and copy the firmware file to internal storage root directory and a prompt should pop up to install. Be aware that if you later perform an OTA, it will likely revert back to Chinese firmware, so you will have to update manually using the procedure above.

You can always find the latest firmware link in this xml file:

How much free space do you have in internal memory (not SD Card)?

Apologies if this had been asked. I’ve just taken delivery of a Japanese a307, how do I change the language to English please?

To be clear this is a pre owned unit - I’m looking at a settings menu that’s in Japanese

Edit - solved. PM me if you need help.

Google Services are not allowed in China and are blocked on Chinese devices.

There is no legal way to install it

OK, so the error message makes little sense. I suppose it's possible that the Chinese version has a smaller System partition and the larger firmware simply can't fit. Sorry it didn't work out for you... I didn't have any issues loading International firmware on my Japanese version, but both already had Google Play.

I use my player with the Ifi gryphon and really enjoy it I have taken up long walks and l am looking for something a little less bulky for this purpose.
Having also used the player on its own and enjoyed it I am on the lookout for a small amp to go with it.
I don't want a dac amp I want to use the Sony player dac and connect it to the amp.
Any recommendations.
Thanks.
