How are people ordering from AJ and using it if you cant choose English?

If you have patience and after a couple of 'trial clicks' you will find your way around the player.
 
Even with the English version there is hardly any changes made one you got everything set.
 
The thing that suprises me is even though the player is not in English, the music loaded onto it will display in English

But I must admit the red color looks MIGHTY FINE!

Yobadashi and Bic both had A20's with the NC earphones, with Japanese only on the  Walkman.  (same for the ZX100).
 
Narita had a few shops with the A25, international language, BUT no earphones........ didn't stock the MDR-NW750
 
They did have the MDR-EX750, which is the noise cancelling earphones with the electronics box in the cord.......
 
FYI.
 
The A25 is identical in size and buttons as my A15.
 
Also, and I'm still playing with it, but the NC earphones from my old A846 does allow me to turn on the NC function on the A25, and it seems to work in a noise cancelling mode.
 
I upgraded from my ZX-1 to the A25 due to the battery, and NC function. (ZX-1 doesn't make it from Boston to anywhere in Asia without needing a charge......)
 
Last year, I bought the A15 in the airport in Japan, since none of the A10's available in Tokyo had English........ BUT the Japanese versions of the A10's did come with the NC and earphones......

where is the cheapest online shop that has the 16GB model with the headphones?, strangely the Japanese version is the cheapest on eBay with the headphones included but I'm done with Japanese menus.

Can it be used with a non sony amp?

 

[DaejeonCitizen]

I don't know about anywhere else, but in Korea there are only two models to choose from.
 
16GB: All colors and no earphones
64GB: Only black with NC earphones

Can it play DSD Files?

 

[stalepie]

Can it play DSD Files?

 
no, "It's a Sony" 
 
 
nor atrac (edit! According to the specs, it does play ATRAC - though that may just be for Japanese models). Pono and FiiO players can handle DSD, I think (as well as the ZX line of Walkmen). Sorry for any confusion.

has anyone ordered it from AccessoryJack and how was the shipping process speed?

I thought so too, although this version, sold by a third party, is also including the NC earphones (MDR-EX750), which even at AccessoryJack go for $150. So really it's the same $300 + ~$200 (earphones), I think.
 

You're mistaken. The supplied IEM's are NOT EX750, but cheaper (1 mic instead of 2) NW750. I bought the EU version as well just because of them and I don't think it was worth it.
