Does anyone have a preferred card for the Walkman? I’m going to pick one up here shortly.

This thing is pretty amazing. I have the Stereo unit and this thing is every bit as fun.

Also bought some Metallica hi-Res reissues and they sound great on this. MOP sounding smoother than the DCC version. Listening. With the Shure 846’s.

Full review to follow.

Shure SRH1540 headphones are amazing out of the balanced output on the NW-WM1A. I just sold my SE846. I have been heavily favoring full-size headphones as of late. I use SanDisk 400gb card.

Your reviews of the 846 were helpful to me when looking to make a purchase as well as demoing other monitors. Now I want to try the filter mods you mentioned.

Anyway I’ll look into this SanDisk 400 card. If that happens I might be able to essentially get a good chunk of my music in there. It’s like my iPod but 10000 times better.

I’ll check out the full size earphones next year.

In the meantime I ordered the 4.4 Sony chord for the 846’s.

need some help, how do I extract DFF or DSF from a SACD ISO file, which software do I need for this to get good results.

I believe PS3 and utube videos.
People will show how to extract.
I don't have time to look into yet, but I will later. I have about 20 sacd to try.

Thanks to everyone that has responded. Super helpful.

Review to come soon.

I found a set of tools called sacdISOs2EMflac It tells you to install weiss engineering saracon, i no longer run weiss saracon as it degrades SQ when converting to 24/88.2 FLAC, i just extract the DFF and keep it as is (DSD)

Hi

For output do you use sony or phillips.


Thanks

[gerelmx1986]

Can somebody post a link to a screen protector that isn't a total pain in the ass to install?

get this one, as long as the screen in dust free it's easy to install.

If you're crap at putting a screen protector on, doesn't matter which one you get, they are all the same to install Find which ever one you can get hold off and have someone to do it for you, the best is probably the Benks or gamas brand, you can find those on ebay, aliexpress or amazon.
