No problemThank you for your answers, very useful. I can imagine that the N30LE together with the DMP-Z1 is an incredible synergy
Your source won’t have any effect on the sound. You could be using a N30LE or a phone and it will sound identical. All the sound processing and amplification is being done by the DMP-Z1. All your DAP is doing is providing the digital music data through the USB-C port.
