Has anyone experienced problems trying to update the WM1AM2 firmware to 1.0.2 via wifi? I have a friend who recently bought the WM1AM2 and he can't update because it never goes past the 0% point when he starts the update process.

Internal storage might not be enough.

Or Regional? Mine is Japanese Market version and went fine.

My Australian delivered went through no problem. Seems a bit less laggy? Apple Music seems to be more responsive.

Anyone connected the M2 to an aptX adaptive compatible Bluetooth speaker/headphone/DAC? Did both devices switch to aptXHD? Mine sticks with simple aptX.

I know this is not strictly on topic, but this article shows that buying 24-bit 96KHz isn't always what it's cracked up to be:

I don't think it has adaptive, but you should be able to switch between standard aptX and aptXHD in developer options (with compatible devices)

No, an explicit switch to aptXHD in the M2's developer options is not possible. It's grayed out.

My friend has all the music files in a 256 SD card and nothing in the internal storage.

That means the device your connected to doesn't support aptXHD, unfortunately.

The unit with the update issue is Japanese market too

That's the point I'm about to check with their support. At the moment, they state it does support aptXHD. We will see

Or Sony didn't pay Qualcomm the extra licensing cost for aptxHD and its not a Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU in the Sony? Does Sony specifically list apxHD ?


Just looked up and its not above as it shows support


Supported Codecs (Transmission)SBC, LDAC, aptX, aptX HD, AAC

Yes, aptXHD is supported by the M2. And mine does fine with a different aptXHD capable device.

Support of Bang Olufsen (speaker), not Sony

Everything I've got is LDAC so thats all I use. My KEF LS50WII and LSX speakers are HD streaming via ethernet anyway so never use BT with them.
