New- Zishan Z1 DSD player thread

[bontakun77]

Does anyone know if the Z1 would work as an amp like the Walnut would?
 
I can't find any information about that.

It's supposed to be the same thing, but better... we'll know about the sound quality when people's orders start arriving.

sounds promising then, fingers crossed hoping the incompatibility that the walnut has with multi-BA and hybrid IEMs don't happen with this one

If it doesn't it will not be the same thing but better though but rather a totally different DAP with a similar appearance......

I bought the third Z1,and now they sold 27.

[flamesofarctica]

I feel like I'm cheating on my walnut. It would serve us right if it's rubbish :-D

Looking at pics of z1 pcb, it doesn't have rollable power and rail caps, so it only allows rolling opamp, and input and output coupling caps

It is most likely a different from walnut

Ordered mine on the 13th.  Looking forward to getting it.

except for the paintings, looks & feels just like walnut

How does it sound?

  How does it sound?

Just turned it on, so far so good. 

 

[Frederick Wang]

I will leave the sound part for another day, don't want to rush into conclusions. But my initial impression is a very positive one. 
 
Just comparing the looks of Z1 and Zishan DSD, the former looks simple and neat, while the later simplistic and grotesque...
