Hey gang. Hope everyone is well. I’ve read as much of this post as I could and searched everything in here so I need to ask:

What is the largest micro card I can use is the 1A unit?

Any help would be appreciated.

400GB but it'll come up as 366.75GB. As pictured here https://www.head-fi.org/threads/sony-nw-wm1z-wm1a.815841/page-1173#post-13933856

Do you lose 40 gig from the card due to formatting or can you use all of it?

You loose some to formatting but most to marketing as the 2 uses of GB are not the same.

The 400GB are metric or marketing GB 400x1000x1000x1000 bytes whereas the 366GB formatted capacity are binary GB 366x1024x1024x1024 bytes

Thanks so much for the overview, that helps.

One last question, anybody into rock / metal blues and have adjusted their EQ on the Sony for it?

I’m used to the Rock EQ on my phone and would like to get a similar cirve in the 10 band EQ.

When I get sorted I’ll look to do a proper write up. So far the WM1A is a good step up from the iPhone. The extra batter life is nice as well.

I love Lamb of God, Hellyeah, Mudvayne, Approaching Dawn, War Curse, Godsmack, Iron Maiden (earlier stuff), Black Sabbath, Dio, Megadeth, Metallica, Judas Priest, and more. I always listen in direct using Shure SRH1540 headphones in balanced.

You can try to approximate the eq curve on the wm1a eq. There's also a tone control.

Finally there, little container Big Space



WM1A see full specs 366.75GB

This is the max you can use in both 1A and 1Z

Actually this is just the max you can buy at the monent. I fully expect these players to support larger when they eventually come out

Yeah I saw that but can’t get to the tone knobs. So far just the 10 band EQ. I need to play with it more....

It's confusing on how to access the Tone Control. To access it, go to the Equalizer screen (swipe up after selecting a song). Tap the settings icon in the lower right corner. Then select Tone Control. This will bring up the knobs. To revert back to the Equalizer, tap the settings icon again and select Equalizer.

 

[gerelmx1986]

It would have been more intuitive as a toggle switch equalizer <---> tone control

Ha ha ha Amazon what you like !

 

[Fixxer6671]

That’s crazy. I’m loving this player more and more. When I get some more hours on it I’ll write my review.
