SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

I easily get 30 hours using Direct local WAV 16-bit 44.1khz on the Walkman app. Thankfully my favourite way to listen.

My AM2 serial number is 100000X. I'm a little too proud of that. I wonder if that's North America or just Canada. Also wonder what it's up to now, eh?

Including 227 hours on 3.5mm, I'm about to reach 1000 hours :)

I'm confused then. I don't think I got one of the first ten globally. It had been available in other regions earlier. That'd be pretty awesome though. And I don't think they already made a million.
1 is always at the beginning. See other people offering their Sony. You can see worldwide the same number structure with the 1 at the beginning.

Okay that's really cool (to me). I pre-ordered on June 14 from thesonyshop.ca due to a post from this thread showing up on my Google feed (which never happened before). I didn't even know the M2's existed yet. - I was aware of the M1's release, but it was financially and psychologically impossible to spend over $1000 at the time, and spent years lamenting my fomo - When I read about the M2's, the day after their NA press release, I didn't hesitate, pre-ordered paid in full in under 15 minutes. Ridiculous decision that I don't regret for a second. Shipped on July 8, finally received it July 12. And serial number 100000X ended up in Canada and I have it? That's really cool to me :)

Sorry for my excessive sometimes needless posting. I'm ready to admit I'm addicted to Head-Fi. If I can't control my consumption (and it seems I can't - I was supposed to get Honeydew's), then I only see two possibilities: I quit Head-Fi, or get the ZM2 then MDR-Z1R and a cable, and another Swissbit (YES!), and find a blue patina (AJ sold out).

I'll post some pics in four months :)

I'm totally fine now. Sound mind. I'll wait for my Sony ep-ni1000 foam tips to arrive this week to compare to Comply on my IER's, give them some time to break in, and I'll be just fine :)

I removed the sticker from my WM1ZM2 but it's visible in the settings. I have 2485, but I bought mine pretty late
Thank you! Hundreds hit the market in April, I got mine in July. Strange to get such a low number :)

Based off nothing, I'm guessing they made 5000 AM2's in the first year, and maybe 3000 ZM2's?

Hi guys, regards to sony 1am2 which does usb out, does it mean the data is processed by the internal dac chip before releasing out ...

and if i feed it into a external dac, does it mean data is processed 2nd time?
No, the USB is digital out, so the WM1AM2 will act only as a Transport to the external DAC. The DAC function is handled by the external DAC
