Give it a week or two and they'll be £300-350 at Amazon warehouse then it's time to pounce!

I would hope Warehouse deals should be cheaper since new list price is £224

Mine works fine with the 400gb micro-sd card - unless its the ghosts meddling with the FAT.

Thanks for confirming that, I think I've had ghost do that before to previous SD cards! Ghost's in the card not "shell"! :wink:

I can confirm that the 400gb micro sd is working perfectly with the WM1Z. You have approx 366gb available.

Thanks also for confirming, will definitely be looking at getting one of these soon for all those high res Christmas songs!! :dvd::santa:

I am not nannoyed with the relay clicking LOL, i like it as it signals me when i can plug or unplug my HPs, (after being inactive for 30s) or it let me know a higher smapling rate album just came in.

Yup, it is ultra sweet having Around 596gb in memory on my 1Z. The transfer rate in the 400gb card is very decent at 35 Mbs.

Only hearing about 1z getting modded, and what about 1a? Wouldn't rewiring close the gap to stock 1z for a fraction of the price?
No the body is still black aluminum, lol....

As I mentioned, the mods has the same labor spent together with the same high quality materials. Spending it on 1z seems more logical than 1A from pricing factor

I should have responded sooner about the Music Sanctuary mod. I am no way affiliated to Music Sanctuary and certainly not trying to sell/promote the mod. I am just your friendly head-fier sharing some info that I learnt from a few friends.

1. For more details about the mod done my Music Sanctuary, please reach out to Music Sanctuary to get the details on what the mod involves, as I don't think I am at the liberty to do so. But what I can say is that, it involves replacement of the cable (similar to Whitigr's mod), but also involves few additional tweaks/modifications. And one could choose between 1960 2-wire or 4-wire for the replacement cable.

2. The mod can be certainly done for WM1As. Per my knowledge, there are a few people who have actually got their WM1As modded. I was told by a friend that the modded WM1A puts it almost on the same same level as stock WM1Z.
