My Sony Z Walman has just arrived! It sounds clearer than my IPod Touch and J3. But I liked the BBE and 3D surround enhancement on the J3 it made female vocals sounded better.
Here are my replies:
1) That WMC-NW010 is not a Line Out Dock (LOD) cable. It is a line input cable. This cable allows user to feed audio signal while using a noise reduction/cancelling function. It is very useful for an in-flight entertainment.
2) Those noise cancelling headphones will only work with the Japanese Z as units from other regions do not come with noise canceling software.
With both the Z or F, the HE-500 showed only 25-30% of what it is capable of, with max volume.
Nothing a 3rd party app couldn't fix.
Thanks. What is a good app for it?
Actually, the stock app has VPT Surround (virtual surround sound), and also ClearBass and 5 band EQ that you can play with. I don't actually use any of those though. I use PlayerPro.
Also, to all interested in Hardware buttons on the "Z". I was digging through the menus on PlayerPro... and it allowed me to map the Volume up and down to Previous and Next Track. A long press changes volume. It's a start, and a good work around for us who want physical buttons but want to keep the Awesome sound of the "Z".
