New walkman are made in China, and previously, someone also had issues as well on 1zm2. Therefore, I don’t doubt the QC issues
Reports of QC issues abound... quite bad for the price.

... tutorial screen ...
which 99% of the people skip but are happy later to show these cool "pro" tips :p

Before zooming in the pictures, I thought the person is carrying a long stick in his left hand on the first picture, and holding the stick while sitting (as the phone blends with the tube) on the second picture.
same, took me a couple of seconds to understand what's going on.

Simple question (I couldn't find a clear answer in this thread): Could WM1ZM2 and WM1AM2 connect to an external DAC/Amp (eg Hugo 2) via USB-C ?

I've used my WM1AM2 with a Qudelix 5K, so yes it'll work just fine.

Wow. But is it wow...thinking aloud. They may charge 3.5k but what is its intrinsic material value of each one? And do us slightly unhinged buyers of TOTL gear bring 3.5k expectations to a 500 object assembled at the lowest price possible...?

Question: does the Cayin RU6 have more power than the 1Z/AM2?

When you use LDAC, all processing is done by the Headphone. The source doesn't matter as long it correctly transfers the data.

Memory lane here....for some it's going to be like eating a Madeleine in Proust's Remembrance of Times Past..instantly transporting you back to times in your life...
